[Support Thread] Transcendence Series (Admin Templates)

Is the plugin good for usage on 1.5.3??

This is a pretty old post, but I just wanted to let you know that I'm using it with v1.5.3 and am having no problems.

I have ZC 1.5.3 and reinstalled this admin template ( I had it on 1.5.1 and loved it). The files were still where they were supposed to be after the upgrade, but the admin template went back to default after the upgrade. I did an overwrite of all the previous Transcendence Series files and then attempted to install the .sql files. When I pasted the code into the Install SQL patches window, I received a WARNING: An Error occurred, please refresh the page and try again. error. I also used the uninstall .sql after that and it was a success. Then I tried reinstalling the script and got the same error message. The previous post mentioned that this template works for them in 1.5.3. I am not sure why it won't accept the script. Any ideas?

What is the error message in the error log in your log folder?

No clue.. it would help if you posted the error log from the log files when you got the error message you posted

There is nothing posted in my "logs" folder.

Updated for Zen Cart v1.5.4.. Submitted to plugins for approval.. In the meantime the updated version is available on Github.

Update was approved.. Sorry for the late notice.. :laugh:

I know this is asking a lot... but if you could possibly look into making your efforts responsive, it would be ideal. I couldn't believe after installing latest zencart that I can't use the admin from a mobile device... in this day and age :(

I thought maybe your offering was a solution, but I see it is not. While it looks nice on a PC, it still doesn't fit on a small screen.

I realize the failing is with the fact ZC hasn't updated its admin in about a century, but still.

Nope.. requires a lot of work that I am not willing to do.. That said.. it's open source.. Maybe someone else will take this on..

I hear you. Just figured I'd ask.

I used to be a lot more active with ZC development. Had I had a smart phone then, I would have taken it on. Now... no time. I really rather shocked there hasn't been a revamping of the back end in all these years.

In the up coming 1.6 release (found on github) you will see that the back end will change. Work has been started to make it more modern looking and more responsive.

hey, that's cool! Being back end, it isn't uber-important... but responsive is becoming a pretty standard requirement.

Lol

Of course... I just tried finding more info on this "upcoming 1.6" when I came across this page. From... err... 3 years ago (sigh).

Before that, I d/l'd it from GH, got excited because the installer was pretty slick, then was promptly presented with exactly a blank page for all content. Admin, store, whatever... just blank. No error, no html, just blank. I get it, it isn't QUITE ready yet lol np.

We are getting off topic here, but the 1.6 version does work, there only is a small problem with the download right now, and will be fixed soon. Also see https://www.zen-cart.com/showthread.php?215090-habitat-vagrant-amp-zencart&p=1274013#post1274013, and https://github.com/zencart/zencart/issues/452

Further discussion should be continued in a new thread on this topic :cool:

Thanks for this.. Bottomline is the back end needs a RE-WRITE in FULL to make responsive.. Not gonna do it cause I neither have the time nor the skillset nor interest to deal with it all. the upcoming v1.6 release does tackle this, and so I suggest to all to either wait for v1.6, or tackle this re-write yourself..

THIS module is not a re-write of the back end.. it is a SIMPLE window dressing of the backend using CSS to pretty it up in a SIMPLE manner using CSS..

That's fine, I was just asking :) Thank you for your efforts.

can anyone shoot me some screenshots of what this looks like? curious to know before I install. Thanks

The install package contains several screen shots of the different colour schemes.

Hi there everyone

Thank you for this Awesome Mod :-) I seem to have made a mess somewhere though and I was wondering if anyone would be able to assist me with fixing it? I uploaded the Mod on my live server "Test Site" and everything looks perfect as you can see on the image I have attached labeled Test but when I installed the mod on my live site (Same hosting company, different domain name) the "New customers:" field in the center is all mashed up. Could anybody possibly assist me with fixing this issue? Im sure it is not a fatal issue but it is driving my OCD insane :-)

I look forward to hearing back from you Legends of Code

Regards

Erwin
