Dover Fine Responsive Template

Last test I manually recreated the layout_controller.php file and the problem was SOLVED!!! :laugh::P:P:P:P:P

BTW the mobile demo page still shows up the logo as an elongated ellipse!!! No talking about mine! Your demo in Safari on my iPhone 4 iOS 5.1.1 ...

Don't know if the newer ver 7.x gaves the same result, I will check the css to see if I can spot those problems.

The problems that you are experiencing are atypical. It leads me to believe that there is something wrong with your zen cart install or with the template package files that you are uploading.

Thanks,

Anne
FYI it was a vanilla ZC installation, nothing on it, really installed over a wiped out database, I unzipped it directly, so something really weird happened, I am a computer engineer, I am really careful with what I upload and check several times to make sure I have all files, the first thing I do is to check and test over vanilla installations, to see if something weird happens, so no chance the code was altered, as ZC v153 was not tested on my PHP version, I tend to think it might be affecting something, I checked the logs and nothing abnormal was in there, permissions were all fine for a Linux server. The fact that my modified file works and yours doesn't, makes me think there might be a slight difference that was not spotted because it was tested in a different server environment. the error persisted in a freshly unzipped layout_controller.php file, I noticed only a few changes to the database and tables, that worked fine once I manually copy them ...

I am happy that you finally figured it out ;)

Hi

I need some assistance please.

I am using zencart V 1.5.3. I have just installed the shopping cart and then added the Dover Fine template.

My site is in maintance mode at the moment as i am trying to replace the 'dover fine' logo.png with my own logo.

I have created a logo that is 200 x 200 pxl and called it logo.png.

Now, when i goto includes/templates/dover_fine/images/ i deleted the original logo.png file and refreshed the viewer.
Then i upload my logo.png file to the same location.

I then goto my site to refresh it.... even after refreshing the site i am still getting the orginal dover fine logo even though that has already been deleted.
I have tried deleting from my FTP as well as from my server cpanel.... but it makes no difference as i am getting the same results.

Any clues on how i can fix this situation....???

Thanks

My guess is that you have not really deleted the original file or that you are not really overwriting the file when you upload your logo. The template logo image is:

includes/templates/dover_fine/images/logo.png

Changing this image should do the trick.

Try clearing your cache and cookies in your browser.

Hi

Thanks for getting back to me quickly.

I have cleared the cache and browsing history etc.

I am using IE 11 on Windows 7.

I am just checking to see if i have made any errors during teh installation etc .

thanks

I have checked the logo.png file. It has been installed correctly. If i remove the logo.png file then the site will not show any image at all - image missing etc.

When i upload my logo.png file i still get the dover fine logo and not my logo.

Thanks

Hi

I figured the problem out.

The file that i deleted was logo.png. After i cleared the cache i then uploaded my logo.png file.

For some reason it would not let me display my logo, instead i had your logo on there.

The solution was simple.

I needed to rename my logo.png file to (example) logo123.png

Then i also had to change the file name in the header file too.... (includes/languages/english/dover_fine/header.php )

After doing this and clearing the cache i refreshed my site and guess what - it was working !

Thanks for your help......

I am happy that you figured it out. But, just to be clear, it is not a problem with the template at all. It is an ie browser related problem ;)

Apparently it has something to do with certain iPhone 4's, my demostore

http://www.theoutletseason.com/demostore

But I can tell you I had the same problem when checking your DEMO too ... BTW the squeezing behavior is cumulative! by this I mean every time I rotate the iphone the logo got squeezed a bit more, weird!!!! Definetely soemthing to check, as an oddity, lol, I rotated the logo counterclockwise until it disappeared, then one more time and boom the logo was there!, squashed but not exactly too bad ...

BTW this script is not included with the package .... >>>> ```html
includes/templates/dover_fine/jscript/jquery.easing.min.js

I checked twice and is not in the distribution, nor in the extracted directory ...

Zen Cart 1.50 https://www.mldfurniture.co.uk

Having I think a similar problem in that all the options in the left hand side have disappeared and none appear on right hand side.

Have tried turning all banner boxes one by one off on left and right sides as well as turning banners off but still cannot get it to show the categories / tabs etc which were showing up until last week.

Thank you.

I have no idea what to tell you. Normally, things just don't stop working without a reason. If I were you I would back track through my customizations until you find what broke things.

I have installed Dover Fine at http://www.mldfurniture.co.uk with ZenCart 1.5.0 but have a number of queries / problems.

The search window in top left hand corner shows some HTML coding inside. Also the search GO button was not in the downloads and should be in a file called button_search_header.gif

I think I have uploaded the latest Dover Fine template (1.2) but in the backend of ZenCart it shows as 1.1. I assume this number just has not been updated but I would like to check. Is there an easy way of determining if the template is 1.1 or 1.2 ?

How can you get some horizontal space between the face pics and text in our About Us page ? We have used hspace="20" in the coding for the facepic but no space is shown.

Thank you.

The search box and button problem is not inherent to the template package. It sounds like your upload was incomplete or corrupted.

There is probably just a typo in the installer files. I will correct this in the next version.

You can add #aboutUsMainContent img{margin-right:whatever px;} to move the image away from the text.

Thanks,

Anne

Thank you Anne for prompt response on a Sunday night.

Do you know what files that I should be reuploading to try and fix this Search problem and do you know where I could locate the go.gif file.

Re the coding in your email re the spacing. Do I insert this in the About Us Page Code in the ZenCart backend using the Define Editor there ? Do I insert it immediately after the coding for the picture ?

Thank you.

Trevor

Forgot to ask Anne.

Can you tell if the template at https://www.mldfurniture.co.uk is Ver 1.0 or 1.1 ?

Trevor

Can you suggest a different way to disable the slideshow?

You can turn the banners off in the banner manager.

Thanks,

AnneGreat Template! Just readdressing this item. Turning off all the banners using the banner manager just results in a spinning circle. Installation instructions tell us to go to Configuration >> Dover Fine (sic). Then click on "Homepage Slideshow" and enter false. That option is not available in Configuration >> Dover Fine Template Configuration.

Check several times for missing files to no avail. Is there perhaps some other way to disable the slide show?

THANX

I'll take a look at this for a future template update ;) For now, if you do not want to use the slide show on the main page, you can remove the code from the tpl_main_page.php file.

Anne
