Stirling Grand Responsive Template

Cabinetman:

I re-uploaded all the .css files, as I had compiled and combined some files. But this made no change. The link to the tutorial isn't valid. I checked out some other css menu tutorials online, but couldn't figure it out. I am ok with just displaying 4 levels deep, if there is an easy way to do that, but I can't reduce the number of subcategories I have. Any thoughts?

try this: go to tutsplus.com and search on "mega drop down menu" and you will find the reference. for some reason the link isnt copying correctly.

The forum has stripped out one of the words in the url. The removed word is bravo utah tango tango ;)

Thanks,

Finally figured it out.
In the stylesheet_mega_menu.css file I changed the following code:

.mega-menu .levels li:hover ul ul, .mega-menu .levels li:hover ul ul ul, .mega-menu .levels li:hover ul ul ul ul, .mega-menu .levels li:hover ul ul ul ul ul{left: -999em;}

.mega-menu .levels li:hover ul, .mega-menu .levels li li:hover ul, .mega-menu .levels li li li:hover ul, .mega-menu .levels li li li li:hover ul{left: 145px;}

Now my numerous subcategories are displaying properly.

Thanks

This template is using media queries only for the responsive design. You would need to hide the mega menu (display:none;) at the media query for 1024 pixels and display:block the mobile menu.

Hello Anne,

thank you for this nice template, i need the idiots guide, too.

Do you mean .mega-menu display:none at /includes/templates/stirling_grand/css/responsive.css?

Where can i found the lines to media query?

margecc:

I could be wrong, but this is what I am currently adding to the responsive.css to fix some display problems my site has on iPads (which are 768x1024)

@media only screen and (device-width:768px)and (orientation:landscape){
add your css here
}

@media only screen and (device-width:768px)and (orientation: portrait){
**and here
**#header-lan-curr {display:none;}

}

I found this lines with Developers Tool Kit only in Winchester Responsive, not in Stirling Grand.

Yes, in this template package the media queries are in the responsive.css file.

You will probably need to add a media query specific for landscape tablets. Normally this is width 1024pixels.

Thanks,

Anne

O. K., excuse me please, my native language is not English. All the Translator or Compiler are so different.

My Problem, i can not detect this Value with 1024 pixels, i can detect it in stylesheet. All works fine, but i see
it on the Android Tab,with 10.1", the Mega Menu did not work.

What can i do?

This template uses media queries only for the responsive design. You need to write a query that will isolate landscape tablets and then add a display:none; to the mega menu if you do not want it to show on landscape tablets. If you do a google search you will find instructions on how to write media queries.

Dear Anne,

thank you, thank you so much, i use the google search before i posted hear. Result, nothing, it's for me to complicated. The responsive Templates are for normal Users to difficult, i try any solutions, but no success.

I go back to an normal free template.

Cheers

As far as the additional image popup, you need to add that page to the code I provided for the html_header.php

if (COLUMN_WIDTH == '0' || (in_array($current_page_base,explode(",",'popup_image,popup_image_additional')) )) {

> 
> I would copy and upload /includes/modules/additional_images.php
> 
> to
> 
> /includes/modules/stirling_grand/additional_images.php
> 
> to restore file.

Inserting that code on html_header.php, gives me a blank page. (Just using IH4, not any other image plugin).

My guess is that you have not added the code in the correct place in the file. Check your logs folder for errors and use the error as a clue.

I figured it out. Thanks!

Will someone be so kind as to provide detailed instructions on how to properly install this template to zen cart? I am new to zen cart and have just installed 1.5.4 to my server, I really like this template and it is perfect for my clients needs but am stuck trying to get it properly set up. I did upload SG to my server but need someone who would be willing to walk me through it. In particular, I have not found any files talked about in other help posts that are needed to be renamed etc. Thanks so much in advance for your help!

You will find extremely helpful installation instructions in the download zip file /readme directory:

stirling_grand_readme.html

Follow step-by-step, and you will be there.

I got as far as getting all the sql patches installed and am now at the text editor for the changes needed there but am not sure of the way here:

define('DIR_WS_ADMIN', preg_replace('#^' . str_replace('-', '-', zen_parse_url(HTTP_SERVER, '/path')) . '#', '', dirname($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'])) . '/');
define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_ADMIN', preg_replace('#^' . str_replace('-', '-', zen_parse_url(HTTPS_SERVER, '/path')) . '#', '', dirname($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'])) . '/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/');

Also is it possible to just remove all template files and start over? Thank you

Hi,

I'm sorry, but I don't recall whether any Stirling Grand template files overwrite/replace any Zencart files. I don't think so. You should be able to simply remove the installed Stirling Grand package files and start over. Also, I'm not really sure why you are thinking to edit the above section of the admin/includes/configure.php file. If your standard installation - prior to installing the Stirling Grand files - was working as it should, installing the new template files does not require you to edit the above.

If you are confused, if you have lost track of what is going on, I would recommend removing all the new template files you have copied over to your server, and start again. With luck, you can double check what you have copied over by checking the date. Leave the sql stuff as it is - assuming it installed without any errors. Otherwise, follow the instructions to install the template bits you want, and then go to Tools/Template Selection, and switch to the Stirling Grand template. If it works, that's all you need to do. If it doesn't look exactly as you want, you will need to edit and/or create some css files. If you don't know what you are doing there, don't do it!

There are detailed instructions in the template readme file which is included in the template zip file.

It looks like you are not editing the correct file. The template does not modify any of these lines.

Good morning,

I am running Stirling Grand on 2 sites and it is working beautifully, except for one little issue, I seem to receive a fair amount of spam email. Thus far I have just been blocking the IP in Cpanel, but in poking around on the forum to see what others may be doing to stop the problem, there seems to be something about the mega menu and such, but I'm not really understanding what they are saying or if they are completely deleting the contact us form the menu, which I would prefer not to do since I think it's quite helpful. Any insight would be appreciated.

I found this post, and the poster is using one of Anne's templates so I am assuming it would be helpful, if I understood it :frusty:
