Why all buttons not displaying on pages?

Anyone can help me to tell why and what to do?:( If all buttons such as “tell a friend, write review, add to cart, continue shopping, delete, check out, edit update, cancel and choose your language” are not displaying on all pages even thought I installed complete zencart latest version 1.3.6 and I can see that those all buttons are in their folders in zencart installation and I did followed the file docs/1.readme_installation.html step by step below.

CREATING THE CONFIGURE.PHP FILES

On the server locate the file: /catalog/includes/dist-configure.php
Rename this file to configure.php and change the permissions to 777 (read-write-execute for all)

Next, on the server locate the file: /catalog/admin/includes/dist-configure.php
Rename this file to configure.php and change the permissions to 777 (read-write-execute for all)

SET PERMISSIONS ON FOLDERS

Now, change the permissions on the following directories to 777 (read/write/execute).

/catalog/cache
/catalog/images
/catalog/includes/languages/english/html_includes
/catalog/media
/catalog/pub
/catalog/admin/backups
/catalog/admin/images/graphs

Note: open the catalog/images directory and change **all **of the subdirectories and their subdirectories to 777 as well. For example (this is a partial list):

/catalog/images/attributes
/catalog/images/dvd
/catalog/images/large
/catalog/images/large/dvd
/catalog/images/medium
/catalog/images/upload

AFTER INSALLATION

When you enter the Catalog, you will receive security warnings about the configure.php files and the /zc_install directory.

configure.php files
You will now want to change the permissions on the configure.php files with
chmod 644 (or 444 depending on your server...and sometimes setting 444 cannot be done via FTP, in which case use your host's control panel or file manager to set the permissions level.)

These are located in:
/catalog/includes/configure.php
/catalog/admin/includes/configure.php

zc_install directory
Next, you will want to delete or rename the
/catalog/zc_install directory to something like: /catalog/zc_install_complete

NOTE: use a different name than zc_install_complete as some hacker may try using it, having read this help file.

Re: Why all buttons not displaying on pages?

Something got bunged up.

http://www.kelkew.co.uk/includes/templates/template_default/buttons/english/button_prev.gif
That is where an image should be but gives an error msg. instead. Perhaps your images are not uploaded correctly? Also, your theme is not working correctly because of the way things are currently setup. Not sure if you are using the default install or a Template override.

The learning is in the doing.

Re: Why all buttons not displaying on pages?

Don't see the need for a complete reinstall. Although it might seem easier, if you can figure out what the problem is now, it will save you time and give you some troubleshooting experience.

For example, have you confirmed you uploaded the required images and correctly; in Binary format not ASCII?

I don’t understand what you mean by "Binary format not ASCII" and I simply drag and drop all files and folder of zencart to my server by using ftp serfer then I always install zencart.

I don’t know why the buttons are not displayed even all of those image buttons are already in their own images' folder.

Re: Why all buttons not displaying on pages?

Again i have reinstalled zencart version 1.3.6 but it still buttons are not displaying on the pages.

I have rechecked that all button's images are placed properly in thier folders includes/templates/template_default/buttons/english.

when i check to see does any of buttons image dispay or not
http://www.kelkew.co.uk/includes/templates/template_default/buttons/english/button_TellAFriend.gif

then i get an error on page below.

Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, [email protected] and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error. More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

And when i place only same button's folder with its all images http://www.kelkew.co.uk/images/buttons/english/button_TellAFriend.gif

then all buttons' images can be display on the page.

I think there is something wrong with all folders incuding includes,tamplates and template_default.

Is there any "Genius Expert", who can help to me to fix this problem asp..

Kind,Regards
ASIF

Re: Why all buttons not displaying on pages?

Images for the templates belong here and appear to be working:

http://www.kelkew.co.uk/includes/templates/template_default/buttons/english

When you make your templates and overrides directories, the buttons would be in;
http://www.kelkew.co.uk/includes/templates/your_template_dir/buttons/english

They do not belong in the /images directory with the images for your Products ...
