Sophy Blue Template

Thanks for the compliments!

Sophy Blue was designed for 1.3.6 ZC series, so there are some files on languages that changed a bit.

All the changes are done on the code and not from admin. Only the width setting is done from admin.

The logo file is in the template images folder.

Everything that is within language is in the languages folder
includes/languages/english/sophyblue

Take a copy of the file you want to do the changes to, into your hard disk, and upload the changed file to your template override (the one mentioned above).

That should do the trick. For more detail explanation, visit the Tutorial FAQ link on the top of the page.

OK. Thanks for the help. I found the logo file and I'll just replace it with one of my own.

I also looked in the language folder under header and found where my store name is listed. But, I don't see anywhere that I can change the font size or style. Is that something I can mess with? If not, I can just leave it blank and put my logo in place.

Last question. The overall width from the header on down. Can that be changed? I saw how to change the left and right columns, but the overall size stayed the same. Can I make the whole thing wider? Just wondering. Thanks so much for the support and fast response!

All the fonts are controlled by the CSS, look into your template folder. You can play with it but always keep a clean backup in case you mess up something.

The widths can be changed but you will have to edit the images too for them to fit properly.

OK. So I'm almost all set. I made a new logo and replaced the existing Zen Cart logo. Now I'm trying to find where I can modify the position within the banner. Can you tell me which file I can play with in order to modify that position?

Thanks.

There are few different positions for banners. For more information go here: https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/index.php?article=80

I guess I wasn't very clear with my last question. I replaced the Zen Cart logo with my own. The current position on the screen (same as the zen-cart logo was) is within the header (file name header.gif) and on the far left side. I was hoping to move the logo to a centered position within the header graphic. Is there a place in the code where I can specify that I want my logo to be in the center rather than on the left side?

Sorry to be a pain. If I can't do this, it won't be the end of the world.

Thanks.

That is controlled from the CSS as well.

I may have missed it in all the pages about this template (very good by the way). I am using the latest zencart 1.3.8 and I have a mis-alignment with the bottom of the window boxes(?) in the left hand column they are out to the left and in the right hand column they are out to the right. I have set the columns to 175.

Sorry should have read what I put. Extra info.

Using Opera 10.10, Safari and IE 8 they all show the same

I have set the columns to 175.
Did you change the boxes width as well?

Did you change the boxes width as well?

That is all I changed :oops:. I have also found out that when changing the widths you must put 'px' or it will do it's own thing

Thanks for the info. It was my fault :cry:

Have you been able to sort out the middle column? IE makingit bigger (wider)

I don't understand your question.... :unsure:

The main area where all the wording does middle column display area (I have not got the correct name for this area) have you been able to expand it so that when the shop is opened instead of the shop being a fixed size it changes with the screen resolution (or words to that affect)?

This is not a fluid template and was designed when 800x600 resolution was in use. In order to change its width, you have to make changes to the design and to the CSS to fit your needs and preferences.

Thank for the info. I will have a play to see if I can make it fluid by using some JavaScript coding or similar.

Again thanks :clap:

I have used your template.

Works a treat except for one thing - the tabbed page displays "HOME_PAGE_TITLE" as the page title.

Where is this page so I can change it to my description.

I can view the source of the page in IE but it doesn't tell where the page is or what it is.

Help

Words in all caps are language file issues. Check to be sure all the language files got uploaded properly.

This template was created for v1.3 and there were some changes on v1.3.7 on the metatags. Go to your languages files and do the correct changes. I believe I've talked about this before in this thread, try to do a search within the thread to see the especific instructions.

I love this template, and had no trouble installing it :clap:

I have one little display problem I can't figure out...

ONLY on Internet Explorer, there is a missing little logo/picture on the top left of the header. On firefox it does not show anything, but on IE (I tried several different version) it shows the little missing picture red "x".

Looking at the property of the picture, it tell me it's 28 x 30 pixels, if that is any clue?

I'd really love to get rid of this, but can't seem to find where it comes from, or which file it's calling.

Any ideas?

Thanks a lot!
