Dover Fine Responsive Template

I have another question. How can I add the Login/My account/Shopping Cart links so that they show on the homepage with the slider? I want to the user to be able to log in right when they get to my site.

If you read through the thread I think that I remember someone posting a how to for this. If not, you can just remove the display:none; on them in the stylesheet files and then add a z-index higher than the slide show so that they will show on top.

Thanks,

Thanks. I did read through the thread but I must have missed that. I'm not really sure what a z-index is but I guess I will just figure it out.

If you post a link to your site I can take a look.

Thanks. My site is https://www.KayDanae.com.

I saw something about editing the Eazy Page dropdown box. But when I did that, the login link was added right under the Advanced Search box on the left. But it had a white background, which did not look right against the grey of the menu bar. I have removed it, so you will not see it when you go to my site. Is there a way to add it so that it always shows on the top of the homepage, like it does every other page?

I am pretty sure that this is posted futher back in the thread, but in index_home.css, remove the display:none; from the #navMainWrapper and add:

position: relative;
z-index: 100;

Hi Anne... first of all: your templates are amazing, thank you so much for your work and effort.

However, I have a question: I would like to lower the opacity left bar where the sideboxes and the logo are. I was looking through the css and didn't find it. Please Help!

I really like this template. I'm currently just starting to get it set up off to the side.

I replaced the URL's and titles in the banners with links to the various pages in the store.

When my site is accessed on the desktop, you can click on the banner and it goes to the page. However, clicking on the banner on my phone - Galaxy 4S - does not work.

Is this intentional? Do I need to activate it somehow? I was quite bummed that it was not working. Any clues would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Melissa

I did not test the template on an emulator for that device, so it is possible that the slide show is not working, or that you might have broken something somewhere.

Thanks,

Anne

Anne,

Thanks for getting back to me. I didn't play with the code, just used the banner manager to alter the URL and text presented.

Where in the code would you suggest I start looking to see if I can figure out what is going on? I really like this template.

I also noticed the same behavior on someone else's zencart store that was using this template. Again, it only happened on my phone, not her actually site.

Thanks!

Melissa

Anne, Firstly thank for a REALLY GREAT template, I have set it up in my testing site and am in the final stages before swinging our current site over to Dover_Fine.

The benefits of Dover_fine are phenomenal !

Problem I have is that I really need to put text into my home page that slides with the images (SEO). Page three of this threat talks about " add the content in a div below the slide show " In which php should this go ? I have looked at the /admin/ . . .1_0.php and the files in the catalog dove_fine template, nothing I try has got the text to slide.

Currently on the operational site have have image and text sliding nicely with "Acoin slider " but I perceive that the slider you using is much more user friendly.

Also I cannot figure out how to use the " Custom Tab ", If you could shed some light here to it would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

Andy

Do you need to add more text to the slide show images than the title will allow?

There are instructions for using the custom tab in the readme.html file ;)

Thanks,

Anne

Hi Anne,

Thanks For coming back to me and helping..:smile:

For decent SEO it said you need about 100 to 150 words, the text at the moment is great (more than great) for main category titles but yes I need more, much more text . . .:shocking:

The "Custom Tab" is covered in the readme.html but I have poured over this trying to get it to show and cannot. It does not reflect in the "Layout Boxes Controller " but does show in the "Banner Manager" I thought after a while that it is due to the fact that "Custom Tab" is not a single string as in "Custom_Tab" but this is above my fire place (Competence). I have even tried activating this in the "Layout Settings " If I can get it to show then I can Work out how to use it . . .

The easiest way to add text would be to use the define_main_page.php. If you add your text, then post a link to your site I can help you with the css to get it to show on the main page.

The custom tab can be customized in the admin-tools--banner manager

Thanks,

Anne

Yes, you can move it around using css or hide it by adding a display:none;

Hi Anne,

I have to echo all of the other comments about how brilliant this template is. So much I love about it. Thanks. Having a number of teething issues, but this one has stumped me. Where in the CSS can I suppress the ovals and titles from displaying on the main page banners. Seems like it should be easy, but this has me baffled!

Thanks, Sean
