Sheffield Blue Template Support Thread

picaflor-azul:

Yes, this is an old bug that has been documented and is on the list for a future update.

All the more reason to take some time to read through the thread. Even with the best of intentions to meet or exceed standard ZC programming, sometimes something like that gets missed. But good that the solution was/is available.

Still doesnt work, i changed exactly what you said and now there is no information on that part of the screen. You can take a look in the same url

Worked it out, as the file was already with <?php

Should start like this: $content .= HEADER_TITLE_CURRENCIES . zen_draw_pull_down_menu('currency',......

Yes, having your syntax correct is important in php.

Thanks,

Hello Anne,

Thank you for all the support you give this community!

I searched this thread but could not figure out how to word my search exactly right to see if this issue has been addressed already. You almost need sub threads for this thread.

My issue - On the product review page, it is displaying some html code garbage just before the picture. Everything else displays correct.

You can see an example here (Since this is live site I don't want it indexed so I added *** please remove that for the link - http://www.orings-onlin***e.net/index.php?main_page=product_reviews&cPath=36_44&products_id=220&number_of_uploads=0

I narrowed it down to this file I believe - \includes\modules\pages\product_reviews\header_php

More specifically in this section I think as this seems to be the junk code displaying as text on the review page

  $review_query_raw = $db->bindVars($review_query_raw, ':productsID', $_GET['products_id'], 'integer');
  $review_query_raw = $db->bindVars($review_query_raw, ':languagesID', $_SESSION['languages_id'], 'integer');
  $review = $db->Execute($review_query_raw);

  $products_price = zen_get_products_display_price($review->fields['products_id']);

  if (zen_not_null($review->fields['products_model'])) {
    $products_name = $review->fields['products_name'] . '<br /><span class="smallText">[' . $review->fields['products_model'] . ']</span>';
  } else {
    $products_name = $review->fields['products_name'];
  }

If you have any ideas on how to fix this please let me know. Thanks a bunch

This is possibly an issue related to zen lightbox. Check that thread. There is an issue that appears when looking at the reviews page with that plugin installed.

I don't know how you found my post, but bravo! That was the issue and the fix is already posted over there. Thanks a bunch - Zen light box brought out the error from the core code displaying the model poorly, but he has a fix posted for it.

Yes, giving the correct answers is important when helping too, as not everybody knows php.

Thanks,

I am happy that you figured it out and got everything working ;)

Ouch! Sorry for making a mistake, but I am far from perfect. I will admit that I did not have time to test out the code.

Thanks,

Anne

No problem Anne, you help a lot.

How could i create a new sidebox for testimonials of customers? I saw someone did one and its nice to have it. Sorry but im only 1 week into zen-cart.

Regards,

David

I installed an add-on for testimonials and is working now.

I now have another problem. If you check my site again, in the main page the 3 way header for new, specials and featured. How can i translate that for spanish also, im trying in the tpl_xxxx.php but no success as you can see hehe

Kind regards,

David

FYI..
NOT a Zen Lightbox issue.. Zen Lightbox merely illuminates an issue with a poorly coded core Zen Cart file.. This has been reported as a Zen Cart bug and is supposed to be included as a fix in v1.5.2....

But you're not far off it I bet?? :hug:

Generally speaking language things are in the languages directory, not the templates directory. Suggest learning how to use the built in ZC tool of Developer's tool kit. Search for the text you want changed and find the file(s) in which it is defined. Then for the new language modify it there as well. I thought those particular things were part of the "core" language file. Have you installed a language pack yet for your desired language? If this continues to be an issue, may I suggest. Beginning a new thread related to customizing a template with a new language.

Hi, ive located the file and its on the template folder not on the languages one. I have installed a language pack.

File is: includes/templates/sheffield_blue/templates/tpl_index_default.php

The line is like this:

case 'SHOW_PRODUCT_INFO_MAIN_SPECIALS_PRODUCTS':
echo '<span class="navThree moduleSpan"><a href="javascript:void(0)" rel="specialsDefault" class="navThree moduleBox">Specials</a></span>';

I have defined variables like this: define('HEADER_TITLE_SPECIAL1',''); in the includes/languages/spanish/extra_definitions/sheffield_blue/headermenu.php

and plan to sub it there, any ideas? dont know how to do it

If you want the template to work with languages other than english, you need to copy the template language files to your new language and make your translations.

A lot going on here. This may already be addressed in this forum. I haven't looked. But to get PHP defined constants to appear they must be called by php code. Add to this, whatever php defined variable you use/reference, must exist in all languages that will be used or english will be used as the default. If the php defined variable doesn't exist in english at that point, then the variable name will be displayed. So recommendation is to find the english equivalent for what you are trying to get (specials in this example) and define the spanish version to have spanish text.

The code would look something like this:

'SHOW_PRODUCT_INFO_MAIN_SPECIALS_PRODUCTS':
echo '<span class="navThree moduleSpan"><a href="javascript:void(0)" rel="specialsDefault" class="navThree moduleBox"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_SPECIAL1; ?></a></span>';

But again, be sure HEADER_TITLE_SPECIAL1 is defined in english or use the english definition and modify the spanish one to reflect the spanish word(s) to be used.

Hi ive done it but now the part where the text should appear its not there. I guess i have to define it in other location.
I have used now the BOX_HEADING_FEATURED_PRODUCTS variable but again it doesnt show anything. Any ideas?

My line:

echo '<span class="navOne moduleSpan"><a href="javascript:void(0)" rel="featuredProducts" class="navOne moduleBox"><?php echo BOX_HEADING_FEATURED_PRODUCTS; ?></a></span>';
