Sheffield Blue Template Support Thread

thanks for looking, tried both of those with no effect.

Can you turn off Shopping Basket [more] and see if it make effects because its also a side box and may be same issue as I mentioned earlier. also that's the only thing appearing on each page after adding item to cart.

im sure I tried that before without success... but your right that is what's causing the problem. now need to find the code that's causing the problem so I can display the sidebox.

Before we proceed please turn off side boxes on right side and only leave we accept box on so we can make sure cause of issue. I am on your site so once you turn off I will review it.

its sorted. the problem was caused by inc/exc tax mod. there was a missing </div>

includes/templates/<your template>/sideboxes/tpl_shopping_cart.php
line 54:
changed
$content .= '<div class="cartBoxTotal">';
to
$content .= '<div class="cartBoxTotal"></div>';

all working fine.

thanks for the help.

I am glad its fixed now. Enjoy Zencart!

here you can see the issue.

                       I had the same problem when I was working on my blog sidebox. I was thinking something I did in the stylesheet... but after some tweaking, found the code was creating an extra closing DIV tag... cleaned that up and problem was solved.  I would look at whatever sidebox is changing when a product is added to the cart.  Another possible cause would be a chunk of code that's active when the site switches to SSL but not active during non-SSL behaver... another good check would be to dump the page source after it's created and look at the DIV's to see if they are all closed with no extras.

I'm slow...

I am happy that you figured out the problem and posted your solution so that others who might have the same problem can find the solution ;)

Thanks,

I don't know where the issue has been addressed but I was told to find it here. I have searched the thread and not found the why. Please give me a bread crumb to the answer...

I can see my description in the Product List: http://ostomytoilet.com/index.php?ma...=index&cPath=1
But no joy in product info page: http://ostomytoilet.com/index.php?ma...&products_id=3
I messed it up somehow and I don't want to reinstall again. Probably just some switch. Anyone know why?

Wrong thread... This thread is for the Sheffield Blue template. You have Responsive Sheffield Blue installed. Please see: http://www.zen-cart.com/showthread.php?210062-Responsive-Sheffield-Blue

Sorry, thanks.

Yes, there is a patch posted in the Responsive Sheffield Blue thread to fix this problem.

Thanks,

Hi Anne,
Sheffield Blue is the coolest Template I've seen. We looked far and wide over free and commercial templates. We use it at http://www.yourvirtualworld.tv . We want to replace the "Email Us" in the footer with a <a href="mailto:youremailaddress">Email Us</a> link instead. How do we do that? We had to disable the contact_us zen cart functionality because we get a flood of hackers from China who have been abusing it.

Acutally using a mailto link as you suggesting is the worst thing to do, why not install Google Recptcha to just the contact form page?

Would this solve the problem of them using "http://ourwebsite/index.php?option=com_tag&controller=tag&task=add&article_id=-260479///!union////!select///concat(username,0x3a,password,0x3a,usertype)///!from///jos_users//&tmpl=component" where "ourwebsite" is the home page URL for the sake of our discussion? It appears they're skirting login and going straight for the PHP file(s) as well as username and password data. I'm not a coder but this doesn't look nice. Most are based in Beijing and Eastern Europe.

As currently configured, they're not allowed to send mail unless they're registered and logged in so they're redirected to the login/register page. None of them have EVER registered or logged in...... but the "contact_us" links (/index.php?main_page=contact_us&action=send&zenid=*********) keep humming along. This problem has been posed in other parts of the forum but nobody has offered a workable solution to date.

I am happy that you like the template and use it for your live site ;)

Have you been banning the offending ips? There is no absolutely fool proof way of stopping spam, but you might consider removing the contact us form from the header drop down and installing the google recaptcha module for your contact us page.

If you want to replace the footer contact us link you will edit includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/sheffield_blue/footer_menu_defines.php

Define('CONTACT','<li><a href="mailto:your email address">' . BOX_INFORMATION_CONTACT . '</a></li>');

Thanks,

Anne

Thanks again Anne. You're a sweetheart. I placed the following code in the email address to reduce spam harvesting of email addresses on the site. Replace the @ symbol with @ so that the email address would be [email protected].
