Lavender Template Support Thread

If I compare the seminars page (http://www.evergreenparenting.co.za/...in_page=page_2)
with for instance the tip of the week page
(http://www.evergreenparenting.co.za/...=index&cPath=2)

one have a white strip on top and scrolls horizontally and the other is perfect with no space and no scroll

---

I had a table in my html that was set too wide to fit into the layout...this pushed the template apart and created the white spaces on top and on the sides

I addapted the lavender template (CSS) and made CUSTOM buttons. I replaced the buttons in my Template folder... shop/includes/templates/CUSTOM/buttons/english....same format and names
but the buttons/images are not showing in my shop it is still the old buttons... I have refreshed, cleared my cache etc all the obvious reasons
what am I missing?
this is not urgent but would be nice to solve
regards

Tharina,
Where is this to be seen??

Hi Kobra
by buttons I mean "search" "add to cart" "next" "back" etc
my site http://www.evergreenparenting.co.za/shop/index.php?main_page=index&language=en&zenid=7f89252c72255327aa91c1af93a515f2
button images added to shop/includes/templates/evergreen/buttons/english

entering this after your domain name should display the image

/shop/includes/templates/evergreen/buttons/english/button_add_to_cart.gif

In your sites case this generates a 404 not found error so I would triple check that you have these where you think they are.

adding this shows an image

/shop/includes/templates/template_default/buttons/english/button_add_to_cart.gif

I have tested it and most of the images are under evergreen/buttons/english...the ones that wasn't I loaded now
but it still does not show on the site.... I have also now loaded the button images under evergreen/buttons/afrikaans (my other language ) to see if it doesn't have something to do with that

If indeed evergreen/buttons/english is where they should be I will continue to play around to see if I can get it to show

thanks for your valued input!

You might also check your setting in

admin > config > layout settings > CSS Buttons > set to "NO"

Thanks Kobra
setting admin > config > layout settings > CSS Buttons > set to "NO" worked for most of the buttons yes! The ones that are missing I will make sure are there and named correctly

I obviously do not fully grasp the concept of css buttons versus normal buttons though... I assume one is the rollover effect and the other are just the static images

MY PROBLEM is that my header (banner) does not show when admin > config > layout settings > CSS Buttons > set to "NO" so I have set my logo banner up wrong in the beginning... is it just that it is in the wrong folder or is there coding I have to alter in onother file?

MY PROBLEM is that my header (banner) does not show when admin > config > layout settings > CSS Buttons > set to "NO"
By default this should have nothing to do with what I believe you mean for "header banner" - is this your logo?

Thank you Kobra
I tried setting it to 'No' again and the "logo" is there now... have no clue why it did not show earlier!!...

I do appreciate your prompt assistance!

I have recently installed the lavender template, and started to configure the settings.
I would like to have the opening page show my products in the format of the "specials" and features" format, though I would like the titles to be the names of the categories.

Is this possible?

Thank you

Deborahjm,

See if this is what you are trying to do

Hi Kobra
my site http://www.evergreenparenting.co.za/shop/

stupid question... how do I get the "triangle"/bullet to display in front of all my category navigations OR how do I get rid of them all?

I can't see what you haver altered???

If you go to http://(sorry, site offline)/ and select lavender there are no bullets by default in the template

I have only altered the colour... but there are tringles infront of some of the left navigation buttons
and I do not know how to disable them or get them all the same

In the end I changed the bc_cat_pointer_right.gif image to 1x1pixel so that it doesn't show anymore.... could not find anything else regarding these "bullets"

I am seeking a blank Lavender button (ie without text) and a copy of the font so that I can create a new button in exactly the same style.

TIA

I am seeking a blank Lavender button (ie without text)
You can make a blank button from one with text - the font I do not recall what it was???

I'm using the Lavendar template and I love it

My website is https://www.skybyes.com/zen_cart/

I have set up an EZpage to display a link in my sidebar to my blog but I cannot seem to get the link to show in the sidebar using the lavendar template. If I switch to classic template the link shows so I'm assuming it's somthing in the template thats blocking this. I made a post elsewhere but that was before I figured out the problem was most likely template related. Any suggestions?

With this template enabled, go to admin > tools > laout boxes controller > and insure that the ezpage block is "ON" and either left or right
