The easiest way is to just update the testimonials from the Zen Cart admin panel:

open your admin panel

select one of your languages (french - italian - english)

open admin -> tools -> testimonial manager

edit one of the testimonials (you can see a preview of the testimonial in the box on the right of the screen)

scroll down to the bottom of the edit screen and click the update button (this will update the language id for that testimonial)

Do this for each testimonial and language.

hope this helps.

oh yes, thanks, it works now
thanks!

Hi,
I have a small cosmetic problem in my testimonial sidebox. The separator bar "hr" doesnot appear between the testimonials and the testimonial title is too near to my box border, how can solve those little problems?

Most likely there is something in the following section of your stylesheet.css that needs to be corrected. for instance: there are no unordered lists (ul li) in the testimonial sidebox.

.testimonial {
color: #000;
padding: 0 5px 5px 5px;
text-align:left;
}
.testimonial p {
margin: 0; padding: 5px 0;
}
.testimonial span {
float:right;
}
#testimonialImage {
margin: 0;
padding: 0 0 15px 0;
text-align: center;
}
#testimonials-managerHeading {/INFORMACIO BOX tittle/
background: url(../images/lefttop.jpg)
no-repeat center top;
line-height:28px;
color:#fff;
font-size:12px;
font-weight:bold;
padding-left:20px;
}
#testimonials-managerHeading {
font-size:1.1em;
}
#testimonials-manager{/* informacio box*/
background:url(../images/leftbg.jpg) repeat-y center; margin-bottom:6px;
}
#testimonials-managerContent{ background:url(../images/leftbottom.jpg) no-repeat center bottom; padding:5px; overflow:hidden;}
#testimonials-managerContent ul { margin:0; padding:0; list-style-type:none; }
#testimonials-managerContent ul li { margin:8px; border-bottom:1px solid #CCCCCC; }
#testimonials-managerContent ul li a.category-top{
background:url(../images/dot.gif) no-repeat 3px center;
padding-left:20px; color:#000000;}
#testimonials-managerContent ul li a.category-top:hover{ color: #CC6600; }
#testimonials-managerContent ul li a.category-products{ color:#FF6600; padding-left:30px;}
#testimonials-managerContent ul li a.category-products:hover{ color: #CC6600; }
hr.catBoxDivider {
color: #aabbcc;
}
.bettertestimonial {
font-weight: 700;
}

thanks clydejones,
I have removed the lines refering to ul and li, however I cannot see why the hr and the padding does not work correctly

Try deleting the highlighted portion of this declaration in the stylesheet.css. I think it will help with the padding.

The hr part I'm not sure about (yet)

#testimonials-managerContent{ background:url(../images/leftbottom.jpg) no-repeat center bottom; padding:5px; overflow:hidden;}

thanks, that helped with the padding...

From the screen shot I really can't tell what the problem is.

Can you explain a bit more and/or provide a URL.

to small testimonials and a huge non resizing side box.

to small testimonials and a huge non resizing side box.

The only thing I could find that might be causing the problem is this bit of stray MS Word styling information.

which is found in the Brita Filter Tap testimonial.

cheers fella i deleted that now thank you

glad it got sorted.

Clyde, I'm having the oddest problem - I've upgraded a site from 1.3.7 to 1.3.8a and the testimonial manager was installed. All worked with the old version except for the Testimonial Add page - the template is blank... So I went and grabbed your latest release and did an upgrade - page is still blank as if there is an error in the template_default; however I've uploaded fresh files with the same result.

I've doubled checked and all files are there... any clues what might cause this and what I might look for? The db is updated and all is working perfect, except the ability to add a new testimonial.

Sorry... the system hung and posted this twice.

Try this:

Unzip the file and upload the entire includes folder to your server.

I found the problem... I went back once again and checked each and every file... somehow I had an extra function file sitting in the extra_functions folder. Soon as I removed that .. voilla!! The blank page changed and all is perfect! :clap:

Thanks Clyde - Looks like you are as bad as me and don't know when to sleep!! Thanks a bunch for being there!!!
