Yes, it's messed-up that IE compatability view can do strange things to almost every template, even the newer free ones. On applezen, my bottom two banners can appear anywhere in compatability view, sometimes going across the middle of a category page. Other things as well.

I recently installed the Second Category Description Mod and Ultimate Cross Sell (the latter only few days ago.) But although UCS has it's own problems, it appears that the flying out zip code field happens with one column layout. So I went back to applezen's right column:

http://www.prommart.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=120_105&products_id=5634

Link above is my main seo test product. I wanted a one column layout and intended to make several paragraphs of description, essentially turning the product page in to a blog devoted to that product. On Nov 4 it was page 4, position 10 on google. Today it is page 2, position 4 google for search term "Flaunt 91101". So I think my idea can work.

To compete with a competitor who this season actually took out domain names named after the dress designer and style number. See here:
http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=188033

I think site looks less bare with the right column turned on. But seo strategy was to strip product pages of all extraneous text, including all columns, so product text can dominate without dilution. Then use UCS for related products from that category only.

But the zip code field flying to the right just looks too confusing for customers to register.

I'm thinking that maybe I could make/get a custom registration page. If it were 2 columns (the registration itself, still one column site layout), I think it would push the zip code field where it should be. Then try my one column seo strategy again.

The zip code field flys to the right on one column layout (one column is an alternate layout that comes in the Read Me with this template).

Does anyone know how to move the zip code field to the left?

Or where might I find the create account code to attempt to customize a create account page?

When template is set to two cols, zip code fits where it should.

Thanks

I think I fixed my flying out zip code field with one column layout:

http://www.prommart.com/index.php?main_page=create_account

Changed css sheet width from default 85% to 95% as below:

LABEL.inputLabel {
width:95%;
float:left;
margin:.3em 0;
}

This matches up with the 95% width for the Read Me's one column layout option for applezen.

Hope it holds up in most browsers.

looks good to me...sorry but sometimes it is the simple thing that is overlooked when trying to pummel the software into submittance...lol

Yea, like the movie "Sling Blade". Ready to tear apart a lawnmower when it was simply out of gas.

Hello DA & Others...

Need some help, app no cooporating...!

==========================
Current Setup:

Zen Cart Version: 1.3.9h

My Zen Cart Install has been working perfectly for some time:
http://bit.ly/iRWAVN

I have some 3rd party plugins:

• categories_dressing_2-7-3
• dual_pricing__wholesale_pricing_1-7c
• Image_Handler3_v3_0
• zen_lightbox_1-6-2

*There are some other slight CSS Template tweaks but nothing major!

Hosted with HostPapa hosting company...

==========================

I did have the server reset the dbase password last month...
I reset the password and all was working again but now i have a strange problem.

Wholesale Orders: these are created using the plugin... and we
are receiving these order perfectly, there is no use for paypal,
just an email order per say...

Retail Orders: these are giving me the problems...
I have hooked this up to Paypal using the paypal IPN number etc..
It was working fine but as of a week or so has not.
What happens is that the store only realizes an order has been placed once Paypal sends their 'own' order confirmation via email.
There are no notifications coming out of Zen Cart nor is there any record in the ZC Admin Area to show that orders were placed...??
The only thing we can see is when the retail client signed up and how many times they have logged in...
(we have been then emailing new signee to see if they in face placed an order over the past couple of days which is not professional)

Please let me know any advice to have the Retail orders show up and send out system notifications so that all can be proper as was before...

Many many thanx in advance....

• Inspire.

In addition to the above, i just installed and ran the 'ipncheck.php' file and it seems fine:

IPNCHECK.PHP - Version 1.3.9

IPN TESTING - Response Received via CURL -- COMMUNICATIONS OKAY

IPN TESTING - Confirmation/Validation response with fsockopen(): FSOCKOPEN() RESPONSE RECEIVED - Communications OKAY
Default method likely to be used for communications is: CURL, with the fallback method being FSOCKOPEN if possible.Script finished.

The error i am getting is exactly what's mentioned on this page:
http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=65680

Common symptoms of bad IPN communications:

• orders not showing up in Zen Cart but PayPal receipt issued when using PayPal IPN module

** The above is exactly what's going on with the site but the testing went fine **

I appreciate any help that can be offered...!!
Many thanx again,
Inspire...

Does anyone know if this template is working on Zen Cart 1.5.0?

i'm now porting my site over, and everything seems to work. I still need to work out a few bugs, but I should have them out by today, or know the reason why. Here's my testing site:

http://goldenapplels.com/shop/index.php?main_page=index

I've upgraded to 1.5 and I'm revamping my site. I would like to eliminate the right column on my main page - which I see from other applezen sites can be done, but the instructions in the FAQ don't seem to be working. How is this done with this template? I have tried altering the tpl_mainpage in my AppleZen template but no results. Here's the main page I'm trying to fix:

http://goldenapplels.com/shop/index.php?main_page=index

Solved the one problem - it does work, just need to put the file in the right place!

I've upgraded my site to 1.5 now, and I've got Apple-Zen installed up to a point - and that last 10% is killing me. I have the drop menu pinned to the top of my site, and I can't get it moved down - all my old CSS tricks don't seem to work. I have two drop down bars on my main page, but I do have a footer - on all the other pages I have only one drop menu, but no footer. It all worked on my current site, but I can't figure out what's missing. Here's the URL for the new build:

http://goldenapplels.com/shop/index.php?main_page=index

Any help is appreciated!

OK, WOW, I've FINALLY updated this template for zen cart 1.5!! It should be available in the downloads section soon, and I'll post more soon!

:smile: I'm really happy. I had previously worked on the template to fit my style (lanstec.com/cctv). I hope that I can do the same in 1.5.0.

Cheers!!!

I had columns set up on my test server but now since I moved it to my live server I can't figure out how to make the product listing into columns.

I have gone to configure >> Product Listing --- and I can't find anything that has to do with columns like most of the support threads say to do.. I am having serious brain farts on this and I wouldn't be normally asking about something that should be this simple

the site is http://www.handmadestraps.com/Banjo-Straps

about the 7th row from the bottom of the list in that section is a row called: Product Listing - Layout Style

that is where you clcick to get the edit window then choose columns

you might also make sure you uploaded all the files for that mod too.

Hiya Jade!

Thanks Chad, and the new version has been uploaded and available for download. I'm just sorry it took so long! :smile:

Beautiful Work!! I love it, easy to install!!! I do appreciate it. I will do my donations as soon as my store rise up in business :)

I have a question: I just installed the spanish language but 'my apple' template needs to be updated to spanish too, parts of it on the top of the menu like: HEADER_TITLE_CATEGORY, HEADER_TITLE_INFORMATION, HEADER_TITLE_CONTACT_US.

Seems for me that your menu read the language text from my language file, but kind of lost.. I am a Zen Cart newbie.

Any help?
