Piccadilly Posh Template Support Thread

Hi Anne,

I've managed to realigned things mostly... I'm stumped with the links on the mega menu being too much towards the right... I've played around with it but I must not be doing it right... is it possible for you to point me towards the right line of code and the how for it to have the Réseaux show on the same line...

I've tried these so far:

#mega-wrapper {width: 980px;margin:0 auto;display:block;position: relative;z-index:9999;background: url(../images/menu-bk.png) repeat-x;margin-top:-160px;}
#mega-wrapper .mega-menu {list-style:none;width:680px;margin:0px auto 0px auto;height:82px;padding:0px 0px 0px 0px;margin-left:300px;position:relative;top:18px;}
.mega-menu li {float:left;text-align:center;position:relative;margin-right:5px;margin-top:6px;border:none;}
.mega-menu li.fullwidth {position: static !important;}
.mega-menu li:hover {background:#8dc63f;border:0px solid #444;border-bottom:none;margin-right:5px;}
.mega-menu li.nodrop:hover {background:#fff;border:1px solid #444;padding: 5px 10px 3px 10px;}
.mega-menu li.nodrop:hover a {padding: 0px;}
.mega-menu li a {color: #fffffd;outline:0;padding: 5px 10px 3px 10px;text-decoration:none;display:block;font-size:1.05em;font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;}

.mega-menu li:hover a{color:#fffffd;text-shadow: none;position:relative;z-index:11;border-bottom:0px solid #444;padding: 5px 10px 3px 10px;}
.mega-menu li:hover div a {display:inline;}
.mega-menu li .drop {padding-right:17px;}
.mega-menu li:hover .drop {padding-right:17px;}

/* bof right aligned menu item */
.mega-menu .right {float:right;right:0;margin-right:5px;}
.mega-menu li.right:hover {margin-right:5px;}

ok... I will try that... can you tell me too if the language and currency header might be lost as well because of that? I've never seen them show mind you... but saw that there were files included in the Template and first thought that I had to go make that code appear but it could be that's it's always been there but lost... LOL

thanks for the help

If you read the readme.html file included in the template package, you will find instructions for turning on the languages and currencies in the header.

Thanks,

Anne

marieAA:

as far as I know... the only thing I took out was the text... everything else was left untouched and was working before I did the language thing... but I might have missed something

here is the file

Can you say if something is wrong with it?

I would recommend uploading the includes/languages/english/html_includes/piccadilly_posh/define_main_page.php file from the template package to your ncludes/languages/french/html_includes/piccadilly_posh/define_main_page.php

Thanks,

Anne

I've tried these so far:

Try changing the top 2 lines of stylesheet_mega_menu.css file to:

#mega-wrapper {width: 980px;margin:0 auto;display:block;position: relative;z-index:9999;background: url(../images/menu-bk.png) repeat-x;top:-100px;}
#mega-wrapper .mega-menu {list-style:none;width:940px;margin:0px auto 0px 230px;height:82px;padding:0px 0px 0px 0px;position:relative;top:18px;}

I've replaced my two lines by your two lines which were different but when I refresh the page I have no changes at all, is that normal?

and my apologies for the language header that's a perfect example of when you've already gone through something, you don't look as closely the second time. ... :blush:  

as for the define_main_page.php  I did as you suggested... it's a no go... what would stop a jscript from being called?

You must be missing one of the template files.

If you refresh and don't see changes, maybe you need to clear the browser cache, or maybe you have not saved your changes.

Thanks,

Anne

really sorry... can't tell you how much but I,ve gone over everything again and no go... it didn't change anything.

I don't know much about the works of this, I'm good at installing and following instructions but the understanding isn't there yet... however, feels as if all that text got pushed and the first work Liens for me starts at the middle of the page and never goes more left than that.

same for the jscript... I can't figure out what is preventing it being called on the page.

here is the latest update...

on the jscript not being called for the Easy Slider... the file in includes/modules/pages/index/jscript_easySlider.php didn't transfer properly at one time and that's what broke the jscript...

on the header getting all weird and the search box ending up in the wrong plage... I've also found the culprit..

includes/languages/LANGUAGE/piccadilly_posh/header.php

original file looks like this:

// added defines for header alt and text
define('HEADER_ALT_TEXT', 'Lancaster Lux :: Free Template by www.picaflor-azul.com');
define('HEADER_SALES_TEXT', 'By www.picaflor-azul.com');
define('HEADER_LOGO_WIDTH', '235px');
define('HEADER_LOGO_HEIGHT', '60px');
define('HEADER_LOGO_IMAGE', 'logo.png');

it's not the image that's causing the problem... cause I didn't even have to change the info there for the width and height ... I just changed the logo file itself and it just slipped right in.

However, if you touch that line in red... here it goes...

I've found 2 solutions... if I remove the line that calls to that particular text in the tpl_header.php file, it fixes it. But since I wasn't sure if I would need the line in the future... replacing the text by an equal number of spaces fixed it too

so this is it

// added defines for header alt and text
define('HEADER_ALT_TEXT', 'Bienvenu et bonne visite!');
define('HEADER_SALES_TEXT', ' '); doesn't show but I do have the same number of spaces there
define('HEADER_LOGO_WIDTH', '235px');
define('HEADER_LOGO_HEIGHT', '60px');
define('HEADER_LOGO_IMAGE', 'logo.png');

Let me know if it's too crude of a fix...

Thanks

I am happy that you figured out what was missing from the slider.

You can leave the tagline blank and then make your adjustments in the stylesheet file ;)

Anne

that's what I was trying to do but it wouldn't work. If you remember, you're 2 lines should have moved things and it wouldn't budge... I tried every way I could think of for 3 whole days.... Madness was sooooooooooo close... LOL

I've thought of commenting out in tpl_header... would that be safer?

I just lookedat your header and do not see any major problems. Do you still need help?

unless you tell me that it really is an issue for me to leave just blank spaces on that line, I left it as such but I can comment out the line in tpl_header if you think the header would be more stable... otherwise, I'm officially in what you would call "IT's done La La Land" and glad to be there...:D

I'm still working on some things... but for now, my header isn't moving or changing in the 2 browsers I check... come to think of it... should I check in something else then Firefox and IE?

Thank you again for answering every time, I'm truly amazed. Let's say that my past experiences were not like this one!!! :hug:

oops my bad, I did want to ask you another question though... I would like ALL LISTING to show in columns... do you have any pointers in the sense that I was going to go about it and use the code from product listing and put it in all listing.. but it might not be that easy... :blush:

I would definitely do a check in chrome as I believe that they now have a higher percentage of users than firefox.

Thanks for the hug ;)

You can install the snaf module from the free plugins section ;)

Hello!
My name is Ewa and I have questions about the pink template. I downloaded it and installed the zen cart software. I have made all the changes via the admin panel that was mentioned in the read me file in the zip package except for the layout settings, since the image there was broken.

Here is my shop: http://www.barneo.se/shop/

It doesn´t look much like the template view when I downloaded...
Almost Everything seems to be missing except for the background image.

What do I need to do?
Do I need to copy the images folder and put at a second Place or do I need to change a lot in the layout settings?

I really want it to look like it did when I saw it the first time. I said yes on including Product examples at the installation, so there should be a lot on the site, but I can´t see it...?

Many thanks for all your help!

It looks like you have not uploaded all of the files. I would try to upload the files again.

Thanks,

Anne

Thanks for your help that I got some weeks ago, it really helped me!

I still have three questions for you and it would be great to get some help!

My Zen cart shop is to be found here: http://www.barneo.se/shop/
It's in Swedish, but I hope you can help me out anyway :)

1. Under the logo "Barneo" on the top left, there is a text line beneath it saying "Din online butik". In what file or where in the admin panel can I change that text?

2. How do I remove the area in the middle, a bit further down, with the lines "New", "Featured" and "Specials"? I don´t really see the point with those links plus that they look a bit misplaced.

3. In the green area to the right of the "Barneo" logo, there are some links. On three of them "Varumärken" (manufacturers), "Om oss" (about us) and "Tjänster" (services) I get automatic popup windows when I go across them with the mouse. My question is, where can I edit the text that are in those three boxes? Do I edit via the admin panel or should I look the pages up via ftp instead? I hope you know what I mean...

Many thanks for any help! You don´t have to answer all of my questions, one is enough if that is what you have :)

Greetings from Sweden

1. You can use the admin--tools--developers toolkit to find which line of which file contains the text you want to edit.

2. If you don't want to use the tabbed home page modules you can uninstall the module.

3. If you read the readme.html file included in the template package you will find instructions for this.

Thanks,

Anne

You´re absolutely faboulous!
Thanks for your help!
That admin tool is gold! I saw that page earlier, but didn´t quite understand the purpose of it!
NOW I do :)

Thanks again, you have saved me hours of endless searching through files!
