Apple Zen Support Thread

Terrill_Taylor:

755

It does display without the overlap when changed back to repeat-x...

Thanks.

I'm not sure about the includes issue, maybe try removing the apple_zen folder under html_includes altogether and just try and see if it works without using overrides for that section.

As far as the background image issue, try changing it back to repeat, and give #logoWrapperOuter a background color:

background-color:#ffffff;

Re: Apple Zen Support Thread

My front page center only shows at the top, the center bottom is blocked out. Any ideas what the problem is, I am posting in this thread because it was fine until I switched to Apple_zen. I love it though and don't want to switch back.
Thanks for your help!

:unsure: Toby

From the readme.txt file:

Optional Add the "About Us" contribution to your site using this module: http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?main_page=product_contrib_info&cPath=40_47&products_id=182 OR, remove this section from includes/templates/apple_zen/common/tpl_drop_menu.php:

I don't deal with them too much, but have you tried googling it? I know it needs to be a .ico file created with a specialized program, and it needs to be linked in the HTML of the site. Also, have you tried searching in this forum?

The site looks fine, except there's not much on the home page. What would you like to show there?

It also looks like you have un-needed HTML in your center content section,

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" >
<head>
    <title>Untitled Page</title>
</head>
<body>
    <span style="font-size: 24pt; color: #e4006c; font-family: Monotype Corsiva">Mommy and
        Baby Essentials<br />

        <br />
        We know both pregnancy and baby are true blessings!</span>

</body>
</html>

Go to "Tools", "Define Pages Editor", choose define_main_page.php and make sure only:
Mommy and
Baby Essentials

    <br />
    We know both pregnancy and baby are true blessings!</span>

is there.

Re: Apple Zen Support Thread

I need to come up with a solution for doing that, because a lot of people have requested that feature. Will do that when I have the moment. :yes:

Hi All!

I don't want to say I solved this, but I am well on my way. Of course, for our Company's site I did some trimming ... ;)

I worked in three main files: stylesheet.css, stylesheet_header_menu.css and apple_zen/common/tpl_main_page.php

The side shadows are achieved by layering two div and setting their background to the left or right shadow. I put these after the <contentMainWrapper> and set them to 71em. I then adjusted (through MUCH trial and error) the containing divs to either 100% or 70em. Adjusting padding to taste, etc.

Make your life easier and turn off the header until you get the main page working. Fixing the header is simple after that.

Also, if you want your footer to be enclosed this box, this is where you do it.

It was neither THAT simple or that hard. Take your time. Change one thing and test it.

One of the things I really love about apple_zen is it's zoom-in/zoom-out strength without breaking layout. The stretchy header is also cool for some site designs.

I am no CSS guru, so I don't know if there is a way to make a single template do both. At least not easily. Perhaps a second template with a different name for the enclosed header? Orange_Zen? Grape_Zen? LOL. I'm sure Jade will come up with something awesome!

Please take a look at my test site and tell me what you think ...

Re: Apple Zen Support Thread

I turned off the setting which, if I understand it correctly, should have made the links to the Discount Coupons and the Conditions of Use pages disappear from the main dropdown menu, but they both seem to persist.

Any suggestions?

Try giving logoWrapperOuter a height.

height:9em;

You could try adding the middle image as a background image of #logoWrapperOuter

You have some css for that text in the Define Pages editor section. I would change that css to this (and maybe go a tad smaller on the font) :cool: :

Hi,

Actually, I did not have that coded to turn off automatically. But I'll do that in the next update. For now, you can open up includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/common/tpl_drop_menu.php and change;

<li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_DISCOUNT_COUPON, '', 'NONSSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_DISCOUNT_COUPON; ?></a></li>

to

		  <?php if (MODULE_ORDER_TOTAL_COUPON_STATUS == 'true') { ?>
          <li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_DISCOUNT_COUPON, '', 'NONSSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_DISCOUNT_COUPON; ?></a></li>
		  <?php } ?>

Re: Apple Zen Support Thread

satya:

also, the shadowAlpha_bot.png doesn't seem to look transparent on a dark background the way that shadowLeft.png and shadowRight.png do.

ps. where's your donation box? this template is well worth the support.

Hi There!

I've updated the template, and the new version should no longer have this issue with the bottom shadowAlpha_bot.png. The stylesheet.css is the only file you have to adjust to correct this issue. However, as will all of my template updates there are various tweaks in the css because I'm a perfectionist, and I always find things to adjust.

Also, this new update addresses one of the changes in the recent XSS Vulnerability fix for zen cart. Everyone should go to the link above and apply the rest of the fixes; my template only uses includes/templates/apple_zen/templates/tpl_checkout_confirmation_default.php, and there are more files that need updates.

I've also made updates to includes/templates/apple_zen/common/tpl_drop_menu.php, so that if you have Discount Coupons Module turned off in your admin, it will no longer show up in the Information Drop Down Menu.

I really like this, can you post the changes in the 2 css and php files? For those of us who don't know much about writing this stuff!!:smile:

I've been trying to figure out how to do something like this. Thanks for your help.
