Hope [multipurpose] Template Support Thread

I'm absolutely LOVING this template! Thank you so much!

Bit of an odd request for ya...

Is there any way to have the Categories drop down on the top black nav bar skip the first level of Categories? I'd like it to display only the sub-categories.

That is possible, but requires custom coding, you can take a look at this file:
/includes/classes/categories_ul_generator.php

Thanks again! Don't know why I couldn't find that on my own :unsure:

Hello again :)

On the category view page (eg. ?main_page=index&cPath=x_x_x) you've added a "Product Details" button under the price. At least, I'm assuming the template added it because it doesn't show with the standard template and I don't think I messed with it already.

Anyway, two problems:

1. it doesn't actually link to Product Details, but links to "Buy Now", along with the link below it.

2. I would like to remove the button altogether

Would really like to know how to do this :lookaroun

Hi Aahz,

I can't replicate the problem, in fact in our demo this issue is not exist, so i think maybe some setup causing this in your website, probably you can give me the link of the problem page?

By the way, do you want to remove the buttons altogether means you just want visitor to click on product's image to go to product info page?

The related files are:

/includes/modules/template333/product_listing.php

You can remove the buttons at this page, if you need further info just let me know.

Just an update, I plan to make this template to be responsive, not so soon but I'm trying my best, I will update the progress in this thread later.

This will be the first free Responsive template ever.

Hi ..sort of a repeat question .But how can I make the home just say home (ie remove products ,all products ,specials) and categories be removed from the black bar as I find they hinder the viewing of the categories.
and supper template too I might add ,love the outlay ..Was going to go over to opencart as I couldn't find a decent template till now

Oh come on! Opencart certainly has one of the better default templates* and some very nice commercial templates in the $30 or so range, but I've discovered no other cart that has a better selection of FREE templates than Zencart. Hope template is certainly at the top of the heap, but so are the templates by Picaflor, Brandon and others.

Beyond the template issue, one thing that has kept me from putting Opencart or Prestashop on some of our various other domains is the Easypopulate issue. From my look-see, none of these other two carts have an as easy-to-use version of Easypopulate. I think that Image Handler and the SEO URL Rewriters are also superior at Zencart. When the Zencart community gets cracking on a plugin, I think that they often surpass other carts with these built-in.

===========
*The progress update here at Zencart expects a new, more modern and responsive default template soon with the upcoming 1.6 version. See

Yes you can move Register/Login and replace the Home link in navigation bar.
You need to edit the file:

/includes/template/template333/common/tpl_drop_menu.php

To Remove Home and it's submenus, remove codes on line #47-54 (as below)

            <li class="submenu"><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_CATALOG; ?></a>
              <ul class="level2">
                <li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCTS_NEW); ?>"><?php echo BOX_HEADING_WHATS_NEW; ?></a></li>
                <li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCTS_ALL); ?>"><?php echo CATEGORIES_BOX_HEADING_PRODUCTS_ALL; ?></a></li>
                <li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_SPECIALS); ?>"><?php echo BOX_HEADING_SPECIALS; ?></a></li>
                <li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_ADVANCED_SEARCH); ?>"><?php echo BOX_HEADING_SEARCH; ?></a></li>
              </ul>
            </li>

Then REPLACE With the codes below:

      <?php if ($_SESSION['customer_id']) { ?>

                <li class="submenu"><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_LOGOFF, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_LOGOFF; ?></a></li>

                <?php } else { ?>

                 <li class="submenu"><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_CREATE_ACCOUNT, '', 'SSL'); ?>">Register</a>
                 / <a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_LOGIN, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_LOGIN; ?></a></li>

                

                <?php } ?>

Then to remove current Register/Login from the top most browser, go to

/includes/template/template333/common/tpl_header.php

Remove all codes from From line #100-122 (as below):

            <div id="login_header">
                
                

                <?php if ($_SESSION['customer_id']) { ?>

                <a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_LOGOFF, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_LOGOFF; ?></a>

                 / <!--<li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_ACCOUNT_NEWSLETTERS, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_NEWSLETTERS; ?></a></li>-->

                <?php } else { ?>

                <a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_CREATE_ACCOUNT, '', 'SSL'); ?>">Register</a>
                 / <a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_LOGIN, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_LOGIN; ?></a>

                

                <?php } ?>

             
        
            
            </div>

You might need to adjust a little CSS here and there to compensate the changes, just let me know if this work.

To remove the categories tab/dropdown, you need to delete the entire 'categories' codes

Start from line #53 downward:

            <li class="submenu"><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_SITE_MAP); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_CATEGORIES; ?></a>
              <?php

 // load the UL-generator class and produce the menu list dynamically from there
 require_once (DIR_WS_CLASSES . 'categories_ul_generator.php');
 $zen_CategoriesUL = new zen_categories_ul_generator;
 $menulist = $zen_CategoriesUL->buildTree(true);
 $menulist = str_replace('"level4"','"level5"',$menulist);
 $menulist = str_replace('"level3"','"level4"',$menulist);
 $menulist = str_replace('"level2"','"level3"',$menulist);
 $menulist = str_replace('"level1"','"level2"',$menulist);
 $menulist = str_replace('<li class="submenu">','<li class="submenu">',$menulist);
 $menulist = str_replace("</li>\n</ul>\n</li>\n</ul>\n","</li>\n</ul>\n",$menulist);
 echo $menulist;
?>
            </li>
