Apple Zen Support Thread

fancykidz:

hey,

i dont know if this question has been answered before, i tried looking through the site but too many threads,

how do i add or delete links from the drop down menus??

thanx

Go to your admin CP, under tools hit 'developers tool kit' scroll down under 'Look-up in all files' type the link that you want to remove in the first box change the All Files Look-ups drop down to 'all files - catalog/admin then change file type to 'php & css' hit search.

You should now get a few results at the top.

You'd need to delete this entry in shop/includes/languages/apple_zen/english.php

Line #142 : define('BOX_INFORMATION_UNSUBSCRIBE', 'Link name'); 

This entry in shop/includes/languages/english.php:

Line #142 : define('BOX_INFORMATION_UNSUBSCRIBE', 'Link name'); 

This entry in
/shop/includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/apple_zen/headermenu.php

Line #38 : define('HEADER_TITLE_UNSUBSCRIBE','Link name'); 

That should fix it. You may want to backup your shop directory before you do this though.

Rigel:

Have you checked config, page status, define page status - you might have disabled it there.

You mean in the Define Pages editor?

I did make a new file and put it in so I can see the file so I can edit it, but it doesn't seemed to be affecting the faq link.

im currently using Zen Cart v1.3.8a/v1.3.8, i've tried using the define pages editor but it doesnt let me change file type to file type to 'php & css'. i also wanted to add links to the drop down menus but it seems a bit confusing, sorry im bit of a newb at this

iCosplay:

When I do

<li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_faq); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_faq; ?></li>

I get "
Page Not Found

Custom 404 Error Page with Site Map Sample Text ..."

Also the title shows up as HEADER_TITLE_faq.

I still need help I haven't resolved this problem yet =|.

It isn't in define pages editor, it's in 'developers tool kit' - this option just allows you to search for that word/phrase/link and changing the results will just change the name.

I'm still trying to figure it out too..

Actually yeah, you just have to create it with the EZ pages link in your admin. Here's a cool vid I just finished watching on how to do so:

Er... For the EZ pages is there some code in the PHP files or something cause I think I may have removed them =|.

I believe the php files are created automatically when you create the EZ pages in your admin control panel.

But for this specific template, the EZ pages aren't added to the drop down navbar. Haven't look at that yet..

What I remember from EZ pages is that there was this weird bar on the header and I didn't like it so I removed it from removing the code in a PHP file.

I also don't get how to link to the EZ pages so that you can edit the page from EZ pages editor on the apple layout header.

Yeah the EZ pages don't go into the drop down navbar. if it were in html i'd know how to add it.. but maybe it's the english.php file or the header.php file in the languages directory.. still looking

Okay guys I found out how to edit the drop down. The php file is located in /includes/templates/apple_zen/common it's called tpl_drop_menu.php

You'd need to know how to work with dropdowns in standard html if you want to edit this. I'm not gonna explain how to but there are alot of useful html tutorials on the web. :)

i managed to delete the things i didnt want from the drop down, but the only problem im having is trying to figure out how to add other ones, i tried by copying the codes of the others and add the one with name i wanted, but how does it link to the actual page you want?

Did you get any clues in getting the EZ pages into the drop menu o-o?

or

Making a new page to put into the drop menu?

Thanks.

I believe the EZ pages & the drop down are two different things. EZ pages don't have any association with the dropdown menu bar.

I'm not too sure about making a new page the links in the tpl_drop_menu.php are weird but i'm still looking into it.

No idea yet, the linking is weird.
it's something like this: ```
<a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_UNSUBSCRIBE, '', 'NONSSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_UNSUBSCRIBE; ?></a>

No idea what directory that is in, but i'll still look. For now you might as well rename the link and edit it's page appropriately. If you go to the page on your actual website in it's default setting it can tell you where you can edit it.

EDIT: You can edit those pages in the 'define page editors' in your admin c.p or here:

includes/languages/english/html_includes/THEPAGE

well this:

<a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_UNSUBSCRIBE, '', 'NONSSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_UNSUBSCRIBE; ?></a>
``` is somehow linked to the .php file in the /html_includes/ directory. Haven't seen that type of linking before..

Hello, I have had my Cart working with this template since August 09, no problems until I recently tried to add something to the shopping cart as a guest. Just testing it out for functionality and it didn't work.

For example if you navigate to:

http://www.xaralambo.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=66_75&products_id=181&zenid=ekudmgk1rlrmifhobouqu8m6q2

Then select a Metal and a Size in the Attributes area.

When you click "add to cart" the next page is totally blank and nothing happens!

This is the case with all of my products.

I first thought it was because I was running 1.38 version but have just done a successful update to 1.39d and it is still the same....

What's more disturbing is that existing customers can no longer log in - the password is accepted but the next page goes blank as well.....

Please assist!

Any thoughts or direction would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

*** POST SHOWN BELOW IS NOW RESOLVED - There was a syntax error in my index.php - corrected and now functional.

Where do I change the size of the logo wrappers?
For my site, http://eyecandylens.com/, what do I change in stylesheet.css so that the entire width (1280 px) of the logo shows and it isn't surrounded by white blocks? Thanks!

Fixed the problem, nvm.

I'm also wondering how to change the background colour of the main content?

I just fixed that. I still have a few questions though, if anyone could please help answer them.

1. In stylesheet.css, where do I change the colour for the bar that shows "Featured Products," "New Products for this Month," "Customers Also Bought"?

2. I've looked here (http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=71295&highlight=applezen&page=284) on how to move the drop-down navigation bar to the top of the page, but for the last part ("You will have to adjust your .css files to move your Logo down below the dropdown menu. "), how do I do that?

Thanks, any help would be tremendously appreciated!
