Westminster New

As an update to this I've now noticed that the saved file size is reduced from 2.71 kb to 2.33kb ! I have no idea what's missing yet

So, here's a 'workaround'.
I don't use the 'page 2' facility in my website so I fired up CEeditor, loaded the blank page 2 and created the text for my front page in the correct font, colour etc.
THEN I switched to 'source' and copied the text. Closed page 2
Switched the editor back to plain text. Opened 'define main page' and pasted the copied text into the appropriate place. Saved the file.
Clunky but that did the trick !!

Yes, same thing. I meant to look into it one day but for now I just edit the file w notepad++++

How to do turn on the discount percentage to show how much they are saving?

You will need to remove a display:none; in the css file. If you post a link to the page I can take a look.

Thanks,

Here's an interesting one !

I am playing around with Westminster using xampp on my laptop (as I have done many times before - prior to upgrading a current website). I am reasonably confident that everything is as it should be, the demo file works well EXCEPT that when I use CKeditor to call up the front page file (includes/languages/english/html_includes/westminster_new/define_main_page.php) strange things happen.

The full file is shown in the editing area as plain text rather than as the interpreted image - fair enough - but if I save the file, even without making a single change, the front page then doesn't function. Both the slider and and the lower pictures from the demo disappear to be replaced with their code.
I know that it's the correct file in the right place and all the code remains intact. Interestingly I can both manually edit the file and make adjustments using the text editor in 'Plain text' mode and that works just fine. However I'd like to be able to use the text editing facility to easily change text colour etc.
You'll probably say that this is a CEeditor problem and that's fine, but I'd be interested to know if any other Westminster user has experienced similar effects.

Thanks
Tony

The define_main_page.php contains php code and must be edited using a plain text editor. I would recommend uploading the file from the template package and re making your edits with a plain text editor.

Hi, my blue box in the upper left of the main page has disappeared. Any idea how to restore it or what happened?

I think it is home-top.png which I have renamed to home-top3.png

https://cosmos-industrial.com/

It appears using this URL (clicking your logo/home)
http://cosmos-industrial.com/

Browser prevents it from display using this URL
https://cosmos-industrial.com/
Browser gives "Mixed content error"

any idea how to fix that? I've been confused with how there can be a secure and non-secure version of the front page. Thanks

actually I guess it's fine. I only use the regular http for links and stuff. The https was in a shortcut I use on my PC, but I just changed it. Thanks

I'll let the experts answer the specifics. It might just be as simple as undo-ing an edit.

Since zencart switches automatically between http/https pages as necessary out of the box, it has not been an issue for us and we don't worry about it.

Go to your admin--tools--banner manager and set the banner to show "true" on ssl.

that was it! Thanks!

Hi Anne,

Thank you for your time to reply and wow my so late response to your request. I was out for a few months travelling with work.

I have checked and triple checked, and even made drastic changes to the colours setting them as florecent pink to see if it worked on lines 146 and 147 of my css however still no luck :-( i still see the grey background with white text instead of black background and white text.

This is what I have for the css
.tableHeading TH {background:#333;height:30px;color:#fcfcfc;}
.tableHeading{background-color:#333;color:#fcfcfc;}

I have disabled the css minify in zencart, would you be able to take a moment to check my CSS for which line is causing my conflict with the shoppping cart headings.

Thank you so much Anne for your assistance i really appreciate it xx

picaflor-azul:

I would be happy to help you out with this, but you need to turn off your css minify before I can give you a line number

Thanks,

Anne

Thank you for sharing this solution, this has been bugging me for a while and now it is fixed :D:hug:

frank18:

Sorry folks, the 'solution' posted above has ramifications on the listing of 'All Products'. :oops:

The better solution is to copy

includes/languages/english/featured_products.php

to

includes/languages/english/westminster_new/featured_products.php

and add to the latter

define('TEXT_NO_PRODUCTS', 'There are currently no featured products. Please check back later.');

> 
> Same for **includes/languages/english/products_new.php**
> 
> copy that file to
> 
> **includes/languages/english/westminster_new/products_new.php**
> 
> and add to the latter
>  
> ```php
define('TEXT_NO_PRODUCTS', 'More new products will be added soon. Please check back later.');

My apologies for post #1131 .....

If you post a link to the page with the problem and let me know specifically what you are trying to do I can take a look.

I am using this template. Is there a simple way I can show many products (products from different categories) on my home page? Because by default it show very few items (only 9 of them)
Secondly it shows only 9 items on every page, how to change this?

Thank you

You can set the number of products that show in the various center box modules in the zen cart admin--configuration--maximum values

Thanks,

I uploaded this template today.
https://www.thedumbdog.com/cat-1-5-4/index.php?

I'm trying to modify define_main_page.php using the Define Pages editor. I'm just changing text, no php code. When I do and reload the main page, the slideshow pictures disappear. What have I done wrong?

I also noticed that the tagline in includes/languages/english/westminster_new/header.php displays as lower case only. How do I fix that?

You need to use a plain text editor. If you use ck editor or any other html editor on this page, it will break the php code in it.

You can remove the text-transform:lowercase; from the tagline. If you do a search about this you will find more details since this has been asked and answered many times here ;)

Thanks,

Anne

I am using this template, is it possible that I can add small images with categories menu? If yes, then how to?

Thanks,
