Having trouble with new template.

Just tried to "log in" on my brothers computer using Chrome. The text still changes. Not sure why that is. IE5 and Firefox work perfectly, as does Safari

Re: Having trouble with new template.

Just to clarify, it's the font that changes. It looks like Chrome isn't picking up the Google font when a customer is logged in, but I don't use them, so I can't advise. IE5 ?

Re: Having trouble with new template.

To anyone who wants to help: here's my problem.

When you go to my website (https://www.brillarmory.com) and click "log in", the font changes. This only happens in Chrome, and does not happen in Safari, Firefox, and IE5. I'd like to know what is causing this.

Re: Having trouble with new template.

I just found out more about the problem. The font changes when my website is used with security (SSL). Access my site with Google Chrome using SSL and you will notice it. https://www.brillarmory.com

Any idea how to prevent the font from changing?

Re: Having trouble with new template.

Most likely not a Zencart issue.

I searched the Web for google fonts ssl and found this:

http: //www.amixa.com/blog/2012/06/06/how-to-use-google-fonts-under-both-ssl-and-non-ssl-without-ssl-insecure-messages/

Worth a try.

Re: Having trouble with new template.

Looks like I'm back with another problem to report.

My front page slideshow has stopped working... Not sure what caused it. I tried resetting the banners and disabling/enabling them.

Re: Having trouble with new template.

Ok so I reinstalled everything. For some reason the buttons on the top of the page aren't visible unless you hover over them. Also, the images on the bottom overlap each other.

When you "reinstalled everything" what did that entail? Just the basic Zencart plus your template? Are you also messing with other mods/plugins?

Although your template looks like it might be associated with Template Monster (due to the stylesheet_tm.css) I'd say it should work with a straight zencart install plus the template plus setting your site via admin to any recommendations that came with the template (often a sql patch that sets your admin for you.) So I suspect that you are doing something in addition.

Why not pop-up a fresh zencart on another doman or a subdomain just for testing? See if just the zencart and template with any setting recommendations mess up.

Re: Having trouble with new template.

SPH, yes,

Just the basic Zencart plus my template. I installed all of the SQL files associated with my template. I am not messing with any mods/plugins, just USPS and PayPal.

Re: Having trouble with new template.

Here is the demo template: http://livedemo00.template-help.com/zencart_42335

And here is my website: http://www.brillarmory.com

All I need to do is just to get the buttons to show.. Ugh lol. The website is fully functional, but it just doesn't look good.

Anyone have ideas of what I can try or change to troubleshoot this?

Re: Having trouble with new template.

The demo has a gray Free Shipping banner or something above the categories. You don't, although I see a thin gray strip. Could that throw things off?

Your logo is also wider than the demo's, which might also throw things off?

Otherwise, perhaps your css needs adjusting to set the background color of the top ezpages (?) from light to dark, as in the demo. Or are those supposed to be dark background pics, which may be missing?

Or are those supposed to be dark background pics, which may be missing?I'm almost certain that it can't be the logo or the grey strip. I've used both of them in my previous installation of zen cart, and the buttons worked fine with them.

As far as the dark background pics are concerned, I'm not sure they exist. I think the color is caused by code not by image.Do you know what values I change to make the background color dark?
