HELP! need changes but don't know how.

OK guys i installed Zen this morning and have spent literally the whole day trying to customize it and im very tired my neck is hurting so i gave up and decided to just ask for help. it's very simple but maybe ive been readin too much info that i overlooked the solution. But at this point i just need someone to point it out for me instead of me readin pages of pages of thread for another 3 days. Here goes.

i want to made the changes that i have illustrated on the pic if anyone can help me out it'll be great!! man i really need sleep now!!

thanks in advance!:shocking:

hello

in the stylesheet.css

customize top links (navMain) with...

#navMainWrapper
#navMain ul li
#navMain ul li a

(careful as they are bundled with the bottom links ...navsupp... in styling so seperate them if you want different styles for the top and bottom links)

adding ...

#navMain {float: right;}
.... should put right align the top links

customize ez pages bottom links (navSupp) with...

#navSuppWrapper
#navSupp

number next to the category is turned off in admin

configuration>my store>Show Category Counts ....change to false

hope you slept well :wink2:

I need to make some of the same changes. I've been working all day trying to find the stylesheet.css but I just can't seem to find it. Where is it?

Stylesheet:

includes/templates/your_template/css

I'm in the same boat.

I've used frontpage forever, this is my first time with php.
How the heck do I edit the stylesheet? Isn't there a user-friendly interface to do this? Surely there is!!??

Here's my page:
http://www.indyguitarist.com/shoppingcart/

At the top, underneath the banner are the words "Sales Message Goes Here".
How in the WORLD do I get rid of this? "tools -> define pages" doesn't do it.

I'm very frustrated... :cry: :wacko:

Thanks! I'll give it a go, hopefully this will fill in the missing 'pieces of the puzzle' for me!

Ooooh and please do not use Front page on the php files or you will most probably suffer the consequences.

I have dreamweaver also -- would this be better? If not, what would I use that has an easy wysiwyg type interface?

Thanks,

Anyone know how to do this?

Using the search link at the top of the page and typing in "Sales Message Goes Here" will lead to 172 (currently) topics.

Probably the best in the bunch is here. Take the time to search and read.
As Ajeh is want to say, "Even if you read something slightly off subject, you might just learn something."

For the css edits, a good interactive wysiwyg editor is FireFox with the web developers tools extention.

After installed, select under the css tab 'edit css' make a change & immediately see the effect, make all your alterations and save the result locally. Upload to your server and you are done

and always learn to use Developers Tool Kit in admin->tools
