Sheffield Blue Template Support Thread

picandnix:

Anne I'm loving it, I've had a sneak peek...Thank you so much :hug:

I am happy that you like it ;) I have some bugs to work out still and some testing to do, and the readme, etc, but hope to have it submitted this week.

Thanks,

Anne

I tried that...that doesn't seem to work either. I reinstalled my modified style sheet. I must be something in the megamenu css. Not a clue...I looked through it and came up with nothing. Is there a way to turn off the 2nd column? That would work for us.

Try playing with the categories_ul_generator.php and the tpl_mega_menu.php files.

You can also try installing the pure css mega menu module to restore the default settings for the mega menu.

Thanks,

Anne

Check your logs folder for error logs and correct any issues.

First, and most importantly, thank you for this template!!
I started building my store with the Andover Modern template and liked it a lot but when I saw this template, I actually scrapped everything I was doing and completely re-did the site with this amazing template. In TWO days. I am a very solid novice when it comes to site building and the majority of coding (mainly php) is entirely over my head. Your templates are so good that even someone like me can use them and look like a rockstar. I think a huge part of that also has to be your readme files and installation instructions, which are probably the best I have ever used. So.. thank you.

My original intention in posting was to say nothing more than thanks. But in the process of waiting to be approved to post on the forum, I actually ran into a question and google has not been able to supply with a response.
On my product info page, I want to align the product info and description on the left and have the cart box (with the attributes and add to cart button) on the right. Basically side by side in a two-column format. I have tried everything I can think of, but cannot seem to align the two and the cart box keeps floating below the description.
Can you please tell me where I need to change the code? I am assuming it has be either in the stylesheet.css or tpl_product_info_display page, right? I would really appreciate it.

I am so happy that you like the template and are using it ;) I am also happy that the readme file helped you. I spend a lot of time on the readme's and often wonder how many people actually read them.

For a 2 column layout you will basically be creating a layout with a containing div on the left, a containing div on the right and a clearing div below. You will float one div right and the other left.

See this:

Hi Anne,

I have tried everything and I cannot seem to get the right formula. Here is the code in the tpl_mega_menu.php file.

<li class="categories-li"><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT); ?>" class="drop"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_CATEGORIES; ?></a><!-- bof cateories -->

        <div class="dropdown_1column">
            <div class="col_1 firstcolumn">
               <div class="levels">
                   <?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;
?>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</li><!-- eof categories -->

Can you look at it and maybe compare it to another megamenu file. Has anyone else come to you with this same issue? I'm wondering if this is an isolated problem relating to the subcategories.

Thanks for your help. :)

The problem is not in the template package. I would recommend restoring the template to its original state and then making your changes one by one and testing in between each stage to see when the problem occurs. You can compare the files related to the mega menu from this template with the other templates but the only changes will not be ones that effect the way the ul levels work.

Thanks,

Anne

Hi Again...I JUST GOT IT!!! I added a display:none next to the > .mega-menu .levels li ul {/* second-level lists*/ in the mega menu css and it took the fly away out. We can live without the subcategories.

Thanks so much for all your time and help!!! :)

Hey...I'm building a new site with the Sheffield Blue template. Thanks for the free responsive template...it's super cool I'm using Zen Cart 1.5.1. At the moment I have it installed locally using AMPPS. Most everything is working fine and I've found many answers to questions searching through forum threads, but there are a few strange things that I haven't been able to figure out:

1. If I turn on a sidebox for the left column instead of the sidebox being on the left it is either above or below the center (main area)

2. I'm trying to display 4 product columns. I've change Product Listing - Products per Row to 4 and then in the stylesheet.css changed Line 213 to:

.centerBoxContentsNew, .centerBoxContentsProducts{border:1px solid #ccc;width:21%

I had to use 21% in order to have the four product columns to show up (you can see it in the image above)...but now there is too much space on the right. No matter how I tweak the CSS it ends up pushing the fourth column down to the next row. Any solution?

3. Is there a way to have the "tab-heads" menu on the homepage start with something open? Right now you have to click on one of the options in order for products to be displayed below.

Thanks in advance for your time and effort. I'm impressed by Picaflor-Azul and would definitely recommend you to others. Cheers.

The responsive layout is pretty sensitive. If you change the width of the center column, which you have done by setting the template to 4 products across, then you will also have to make adjustments to the column widths in the responsive.css file.

See this for changing which tab shows by default:

OOPS. wrong thread.

OOPS. wrong thread.

I have just used the patch from the DIY responsive template default. I am not sure about the syntax.

Hi Anne,

I am preparing to launch, going thru final checks, just made a discovery that has to do with the Facebook mod you have installed.

Here is a link to a product on the staging site (remove the ***): LINK

At the bottom, you can click Facebook LIKE and a box pops up so you can make a comment. I tried it, seems to work perfectly. Only no image! On my facebook account, I can see the comment I made, a link back, and a box where the product image is supposed to live... but no image!

Can you take a look and tell me what I'm doing wrong? Is this something associated with Image Handler? Or maybe with the FB mod?

Can you tell me what FB mod you have installed in the template so I can download and go thru the instructions?

Also, if someone hits like on a specific product, is there a way to track it thru the company's FB acct that is linked to the site?

Thanks,
Mike
