Dover Fine Responsive Template

Thank you I resolved all the above.
Is the link roll over function java script or css based? I want to play with the fade in color and am having trouble reading the code. None of the hover codes in the css looked right to me and I know very little about java script.

Never mind I found them in the css files finally with the help of chromium's inspect element.

I am happy that you figured it out. The chrome web developer tools are great!

I would like to re-iterate everybody else; Fantastic template.

I would like to 'squash' the template so that everything is closer together.

What I was trying to say; I would like to close everything up on the left column so that the page is shorter in length

I think that what you want to do is lessen or remove the padding-top and padding-bottom on the various elements in the left hand column. I would recommend using firefox or chrome and the web developer tools to isolate the exact lines of the files that need to be changes.

I am trying to add a link to the more information side box that takes me to the log in page

  define('BOX_INFORMATION_PAGE_2', 'Wholesale Account Information');
  define('BOX_INFORMATION_PAGE_3', 'Wholesale Account Requirements');
  define('BOX_INFORMATION_PAGE_4', 'Minimum Orders');

// test if links should display
  if (DEFINE_LOGIN_REGISTER_STATUS <= 1) {
    $more_information[] = '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_index.php?main_page=login) . '">' . $pointer . BOX_LOGIN_REGISTER . '</a>';

I don't think that you need the if because the login page is not controlled in the admin--configuration--define pages status

Thanks Anne for the advice. I will give it a go.

well I reconfigured the more information php to this

// test if links should display
  $more_information[] = '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_index.php?main_page=login) . '">' . $pointer . BOX_LOGIN_REGISTER . '</a>';
  if (DEFINE_PAGE_2_STATUS <= 1) {
    $more_information[] = '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_PAGE_2) . '">' . $pointer . BOX_INFORMATION_PAGE_2 . '</a>';
  }
  if (DEFINE_PAGE_3_STATUS <= 1) {
    $more_information[] = '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_PAGE_3) . '">' . $pointer . BOX_INFORMATION_PAGE_3 . '</a>';
  }
  if (DEFINE_PAGE_4_STATUS <= 1) {
    $more_information[] = '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_PAGE_4) . '">' . $pointer . BOX_INFORMATION_PAGE_4 . '</a>';
  }

the link box won't show up though.

You just need to add the html for the link:

<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_index.php?main_page=login) . '">' . $pointer . BOX_LOGIN_REGISTER . '</a>

Anne, the padding commands, are they the one's in 'includes/templates/dover_fine/css/stylesheet.css' ?

There are a few stylesheets in the css folder. This is why using the web developer tools is a must. They will tell you the exact line of the file that needs to be edited. Most will be in the stylesheet.css file, but since there are a few stylesheets used in the template it is safer to use the web developer tools to find exactly what needs to be changed ;)

OK I am lost I have no idea what I am looking at then I right click & select 'Inspect Element' in Chrome

Hi Anne, I really like this template, but I'm having a problem. I've set up the home page slide show banners and configured them to NOT open a new window when the banner is clicked. Unfortunately, it seems this setting is being ignored and the banners open a new window anyway. How do I get these banners to not open a new window?

If this requires coding, I can certainly do that. I've been searching through the code for hours and have not found the problem. So if you could maybe point me in the right direction it would be appreciated.

Thanks!

using current version of the Dover Template, windows 7, chrome

What specifically are you trying to change?

Thanks,

Never mind on my earlier request.

I figured out the problem was within the supersize script and modified this script so it now allows passing another parameter in the slides array to indicate the banner setting for opening in a new window or not.

Overall, very pleased with this template! Thanks for the hard work that you do Anne.

Hi, would you mind sharing how you did this. I'm about to start a new site with this template and this would be useful.
