Stuck with links

I have got so far now I'm stuck with when the new products link (more) is hovered over it shows the link doubled up, it also does this when the shopping cart side box has something in it.

http://www.freerangepc.com/store/index.php?main_page=http://www.freerangepc.com/store/index.php?main_page=products_new

I am really stuck and don't know where to look to change it

Site link

http://www.freerangepc.com/store/index.php?main_page=

Is it in the Css? or in sideboxes, modules?

Re: Stuck with links

Where did you get the template?

Re: Stuck with links

I got it from Red fox templates, which is a general monster template number

http://osc2.template-help.com:8081/zencart_13914/index.php?main_page=index

I have removed all the green etc. But I have just noticed that on the demo site all the extra sideboxes are switched off.

I wanted to have the shopping cart show on the side bar when something is in it for easy navigation.

Re: Stuck with links

Good luck modifying the function of a TM template! I understand that a lot of their look is hard-coded in, and functions disabled when they don't fit in the template design as originally envisioned.

So you may need to do some PHP or HTML work to restore default ZC functions.

Re: Stuck with links

Well I didnt realise it was a template monster template as I bought it from a site in the UK called red fox. I have sorted through most of the links to the correct path just two I want working, that I have no idea who to ask!

I now know after it being pointed out it is a monsterous template :(

the sideboxes switch on and off just the links I can't find to change the (more) to the shopping cart page and the 'new products' page.

I touched it with a barge pole.....but still got my hand bitten off!

I can't see this issue with Firefox... which browser does this occur in? If you want to change the more... text you can do that in the language file. I can't recall which one it is off the top of my head, but you can do a search for it with the Developers Tool Kit under "Tools" in your admin.

Re: Stuck with links

Hi There

I don't need to change the text, I need to change the link the (more) goes to on both the shopping cart sidebox (only on when something is in it) and the new products. They both link to a too long URL not just the page it requires.

I presume its being pulled from two places or something I don't know anything really! I have put in all I can think of in the developers tool kit to search for the link, but don't know where to look really. I tried to paste in the template default for the sideboxes but it didnt make any difference.

I'd love to see a screenshot of this issue, and know what browser you are getting this issue in. I'm not seeing anything odd happening in Firefox or IE7.

Sorry, I'm finally realizing what you're talking about. When you said the link doubled up, I thought you were meaning a visual thing.

did you search for class="rr" in the developers tool kit?

Re: Stuck with links

There is one entry

/home/freerang/public_html/store/includes/templates/theme017/common/tpl_tmfuncs.php

Line #127 : $text = $text.' (<a href="'.zen_href_link($link).'" class="rr">more</a>)';

what do I do with that?

Maybe open that file and try replacing that line with this:

$text = $text.' (<a href="'.$link.'" class="rr">more</a>)';

Re: Stuck with links

Thanks heaps!

I thought it would be quite simple but just didn't know where to look.

It all works fine now. I can stop groaning and moaning!
