Carlisle Fresh Template Support Thread

flax:

Hello Anne,

I'm really happy with your template which is great!!!

I have a problem though... it does not seem possible to use the megamenu with tablets so I'd like to switch to the mobiles menu when the width of the screen is appx.8.54 inches wide (the purpose is that when using a 10 inches tablet vertically the menu switches to the mobiles one)

So my question is... how can we modify the screen width at which the menu is switched from megamenu to mobile?

Thanks a lot for your help :-)

This template was built using the old version of the DIY responsive default template and relies entirely on media queries. The new DIY template default code is much better and uses a php mobile detect script to detect the user agent and serve up the correct layout. You can either: wait to use this until I have updated the package to use the new code (no there is no eta on this), update the package yourself, use the template as is, or use another responsive template package that is using the php mobile detect script. I will tell you that updating the package is not a minor thing ;)

You could also replace the mega menu and use something like the slimmenu that is touch friendly on tablets and which changes to the mobile menu based on the screen width of 768 pixels or less.

Thanks,

Anne

Thanks Anne for your detailed answer... it would be great to wait for the updated package but I need a solution 'cause the site is online already, how can I replace the megamenu with the slimmenu that you mentioned?

Hi!
First of all, let me say this is, as far as I know, the most beautiful, elegant and versatile Template for Zen Cart. A real masterpiece!

I have a question. I plan on use this template for my website and I am currently testing it offline, on my pc, changing some things and adding some plugins, but i couldn't do 1 thing in particular. In the main page, under the featured product, there's a slide that show 4 items. I know how to show 5 or even 6 items because I located the script code allowing that, but I need to have more than 1 slider, so i located the code and copied so it recalled the slider twice. But here's the problem: the first slider works well, the second it doesn't work. Well, it shows up in the main page but when i click on the prev or the next arrow, it seems like i've clicked on the "top" button.

Do you have any ideas what could this be? Thanks

P.S. Zen Cart version is 1.5.1 and I haven't modified any script files, all the changes I made in this template as far, were only visual.

I am not a jquery expert so my help is limited. I would recommend visiting the carousel's home page for more information on how to implement more than one carousel on the same page:

Hi Anne,
I am using your template on 1.5.3. I want to change the background colour and the font as you suggest. However, I don't want to mess up what is a clean install. Can you please advise what line numbers I need to look at to change the background and font colours. Many thanks - Aaron

Further to the above post - I appreciate that Anne might be busy or on holiday - so can anyone using the Carlisle Fresh Template help me with my query above?

I would recommend using firefox or chrome and installing the web developer tools. They will tell you the exact line of which file you need to make your edits.

Thanks,

Anne

Thanks Anne,

It's really been an eye opener - especially as it doesn't affect the working web site. I've now identified nearly every section that I need. However - and there always seems to be a 'however' I haven't been able to find the css that changes the text type, size or colour in the categories column - is this located elsewhere? Your advice would be appreciated - Thank you

If you post a link to the page that you are trying to change I can take a look. If you are going to be making css changes to your site I would recommend using firefox or chrome and installing the web developer tools. They will help you locate the exact line of the file that needs to be edited.

Thanks,

Anne

Hi Anne, Thank you for your response. The web site I am building is available via the following URL: http://www.matchboxlabels.co.uk

That brings up the Home Page. The text and line spacers that I am trying to change are on the following page: http://www.matchboxlabels.co.uk/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=60 I need to be able to change the colours of the countries so that they stand out when level 2 and level 3 categories are displayed in the left hand Categories Tree. Using the Web Developer tools, I've found all the different changes I need to make, excepting those in the categories tree and those under the flag images on the right hand side - can you help? Aaron

.betterCategories .category-top {/* YOUR CSS STYLES HERE */}

You can use the above to target all top parent links. If you wanted specific control, just explain more of what you want such as having on the active parent link with a certain style or some other combination.

So, if I want to make 118 - Australia in red, and the space lines in white, how would I write the code?  I'm new to this aspect of working (html - I'm good at) this, I'm sorry I'm a no brainer!!

.betterCategories .category-top {
color:#ff0000;
}

.betterCategories .category-top:hover {
color:#fff;
background:#000;
}

The first part will give you the links in red. I don't know what you mean by space lines. Do you mean the border color surrounding the link text? The second part changes the hover action. This is just an example of what you may want to style also to give the parent links a different look.

And for you subcategories on the right side, just change these in your main stylesheet. Its around line 276 and 277. Find these and change the styling:

.categoryListBoxContents a{font-size:110%;color:#444;}
.categoryListBoxContents a:hover{color:#a0a0a0;}

Hi Anne, Thanks so much - Understand now and thank you for the hover example - that answers what would have been my next question. The space lines are the grey lines that separate one tab from the next vertically!! Fortunately, I'm a quick learner and also keep all my posts so I only have to go back on my posts not the whole thread. Thanks again - Aaron

I am running a clean install of v. 1.5.1 installed through GoDaddy.com

I am not a programmer/developer, etc...

I mistakenly ran the clg_install.sql 3 times. I used the Browse button in Admin>Tools>Instal SQL Patches. I selected the clg_install.sql file and when I hit the Upload button, it seemed that nothing happened because the area that had the file name now said, "No file selected". There was not a noticable indicator on the Admin screen that anything was actually uploaded. So, I repeated the process. I then noticed the activity bar at the very top of the Admin screen indicating the upload. I checked my log and it seems the file (Array) was sent 3 times.

I saw the warnings on the read me page about not running the patch more than once...so I am concerned. Should I uninstall? if so, how many times?

Will the Zen Cart Install SQL tool disregard the duplicate arrays on its own?

Thank you in advance...

That patch is for the column layout grid module so as long as that module is working correctly, there is no need to un install etc.

There are instructions for this in the readme.html file included in the template package.

Hi,

I apologize if I am not posting this in the correct thread, but I am running into an issue with my Carlisle Fesh template installation. I am receiving a security error stating that only secure content is being displayed, in IE. Normally I would attribute this to myself not linking an image using my https, however, I just can't seem to find where this issue is coming from (I checked the image urls I added). I need a second set of eyes to see what I am not.

My website is http://www.mandyshomedecor.com

Thanks for your help!!!
