text, "View All Testimonials" can this text and link be added to the bottom of each single testimonial page?

Dear Clyde, I downloaded and installed the zip file and now the text, "View All Testimonials" is showing up on the testimonial pages. Thank you so much for all your help!

clydejones:

Open the "testimonial *.css" stylesheets both of them.

find the following declaration and make the changes highlighted in red

#testimonialImage {
margin: 0;
padding: 0 0 10px 0;
text-align: center;
}

Change the 10px if you want more space.

Dear Clyde, I did try that before but for some reason the space shows up in the sidebox but not in the testimonial pages. View this page:
http://www.horse-logos.com/testimonials_manager_all_testimonials.html?page=4

Could it be that I need to add <P> before the testimonial text when I enter it?
I am not too good with figuring out CSS stuff.

Dear Clyde, I am having a problem that is showing up in both IE and Firefox when I click to go on to page 2 of the testimonial list here: http://www.horse-logos.com/admin/testimonials_manager.php?testimonials=2&bID=18

What is happening is that the Testimonials Manager info table is spreaing across the whole PC screen and there is no edit box on the right hand side of the page.

This page shows up fine: http://www.horse-logos.com/admin/testimonials_manager.php?page=2

BUT when I click on a name to select it to edit then the page opens without the edit box (edit and delete box). Can you check into this. Thanks!

I have three pages of testimonials - total of 42.

From what I can see, this declaration is conflicting with the sidebox and the page. I've indicated the change to make in red

From stylesheet.css
#testimonialImage {
margin: 0;
padding: 4px 0 0 0;
text-align: center;
}

Change this as follows:
.testimonialImage {
margin: 0;
padding: 4px 0 0 0;
text-align: center;
}

**
From testimonials_manager_all_testimonials.css** This one you don't have to change.
#testimonialImage {
margin: 0;
padding: 0 0 10px 0; /* change the 10px to get more spacing*/
text-align: center;
}

The only other change to make is to open
includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/sideboxes/tpl_testimonials_manager.php

find the following code:

and change it as follows:

When I am on page 2 of the Testimonial Manager in the Zen Cart Admin and click on a name to select it I am brought back to page one of the name list. But then if I click to go back to page 2 the right name has been selected and I can then edit it. Strange.

Dear Clyde, now I don't need the 10px padding. I have the following code in the two testimonial css files:

#testimonialImage {
margin: 0;
text-align: center;
}

The problem must have been the <p class thing.

Thanks for the help with this.

clydejones:

I don't have access to your admin panel.

Anyone else have more than 20 testimonials? Testimonial Manager second and third page working/showing up OK for you when you tried to edit?

If you can get me an SQL dump of your testimonial_manager table, I'll check it out on my test site.

get me an SQL dump of your testimonial_manager table

How do I do that?

You'd have to log in to your server's cpanel and use phpmyadmin to export the testimonial_manager table.

I will try to get to that tomorrow. Thanks for the info Clyde!

OK I am totally lost: I have Plesk 7.5.4 and I don't see any phpmyadmin
but it has all of this other stuff...

Hope I did this right for you. SQL file - hope it is a dump. ?

jonisolis:

Exactly what i need.

I'll run it up on my test site and check whether I can duplicate the issue you described.

clydejones:

I tested and triple tested using various combinations of going from page to page and couldn't duplicate what you described.

I can only think that some part of the file might be corrupt.

try this patch and see if it helps.
