Re: How do I change the position of header, main page and sideboxes

You can change positions of the sideboxes in your admin->tools->layout boxes controller

Moving the positions of everything you want might be more difficult than you think considering you have to ask how to do it. It's not just a matter of lifting code from one place to another.

Re: How do I change the position of header, main page and sideboxes

Thanks for the reply. I know that's the place where you move the boxes to the left or to the right. However I am looking for the place where the code happens. I just need some help finding the file.

Re: How do I change the position of header, main page and sideboxes

I tried to edit the margin-top, margin-bottom, margin-left and margin-right stuff in the css (includes/templates/classic/css/stylesheet.css) . At first it worked, but then it didn't. So what other place I could move them?

Re: How do I change the position of header, main page and sideboxes

It looks like you're trying to use a Wordpress stylesheet to control the appearance of Zencart. Obviously, that won't work.

Let us know exactly what you're trying to do with this site, and why, and we should be able to advise.

The code sort of happens in a bunch of different files depending on what exactly it is you want to do. Like stevesh said, if you give more details people will be able to tell you what you need to do

Re: How do I change the position of header, main page and sideboxes

When you say > how do I move the position of header, main page and sideboxes. we don't know what you want to do with them. Do you want both sidebars on the right? Do you want the header down the left side? Or do you just want to adjust the spacing or sizes of elements? A lot can be done with just the stylesheet, but some things will require editing one or more PHP files.
