Apple Zen Support Thread

hllight:

Directly under the tab list (Home, Products, Information...) is a shaded horizontal area. Can this horizontal area be removed? Not just change the color but remove it so the rest of the web page will begin immediately under the tab list?
Failing that, I would like to change it to a solid color to match the rest of the site.

Certainly!

Just remove this from stylesheet.css:

#centerColumnOuter {
margin:0 .5em;
width:70em;
height:15px;
}

Thank you! You da man!

Ah, I see what you're saying. Its because that image in your sidebox is too big. Re-size that image to 140 pixels wide or less.

thanks for your help, it looks that my IE software was illness. ~

Hi, Jade,

In your admin, "Tools", "Ezpages" to change the pages and their content. To remove the whole section, go to "Configuration", "Ezpages Settings"

I have set up one product with 4 attributes but I can't get the "Add to Cart" to show. What am I doing wrong??
Thanks in advance.

Are you talking about in the product listing (where all the other products in the category are next to it)? If so, that's how zen cart works -- if there are any options, you have to go directly TO the product to be able to add it to cart (otherwise, how does the customer see the options?)

If you're are talking about the product itself, please post a link.

This is a very nice looking template, I'm a bit of a newb, how do I alter the "To change any of the site colors, open up includes/templates/apple_zen/css/stylesheet.css. To overwrite your own logo, upload your logo.gif to includes/templates/apple_zen/images/" In the header? Thanks

Hi the didgmaster

you really have to open this file stylesheet.css in wordpad or notepad or whatever editor you use, and there are instruction inside telling you how to change the site colours, read through the lines from top to the bottom carefully, you should be able to find it.

as for the own logo, you can just create your own logo, and name it logo.gif, and upload to the server, it will replace the applez_zen logo and so it will become your own logo...

hope this helps..

Ya, I figured out the color and the logo, but what about the other part in the header that says "to change color..."

Text like that is usually in a language file.

Go to "tools", "Developers tool kit" and do a search for a chunk of the text, lets say use site colors. Be sure to choose either the language file search option, or the bottom option, which searches all files, and also be sure to choose "Catalog" from the drop down menu.

That will tell you where to adjust the text, and now you know how to find other stuff in the future!

Hi Jettrue,

I like your drop-down menu. But when my product categories have too many sub-level below, it seems a bit annoying later to navigate through the drop down menu flying across the entire screen..

is there a way i can specify how many levels of fly-out.. say after 3 sublevel down, the rests of the category are listed within the last sublevel in the main content area? is this possible?

thanks!

I have a question about the drop down menus. If I select the green DDM, they're centered. But if I select any of the other 3 colors, they are located to the left of the page? How would I center the other menu bars?

Jade,

Found a bug, but not yours! If you look at the contact us page you will notice that the bottom field is not properly aligned for the Message area:

open tpl_contact_us_default.php and go to line 72 (or so) and look at the entry for "enquiry".

The <label> is missing it's class: class="inputLabel"

This will fix the offset of "Message:"

HOWEVER, I cannot seem to get the textarea to line up on the left correctly.

Any ideas? I have tried several things in the CSS to fix this by no success so far.

Also, it seems that zen_draw_textarea_field() does not respect the width parameter....?

Found it! In sytlesheet.css I had formated the TEXTAREA with different margins then INPUT.

Curious: do you know how to specify a specific TEXTAREA for formatting?

I have tried TEXTAREA.enquiry but it doesn't seem to work.... ???

They're all centered, my guess is (i've seen this before) that you didn't comment out the colors correctly. Be very careful with the comments. Could I see a link?

Textarea's have its own section in the css. If you want it to line up, it looks like changing its width to 97 does the trick:

TEXTAREA {
margin:auto;
display:block;
width:97%;
}

As far as it not respecting its width, that's because I set it as 97% wide in the css. If you'd like that aspect gone, the code below will let it use its own width, and will also align:

TEXTAREA {
margin:auto;
display:block;
float:left;
margin:.5em;

}

Sorry, I didn't look at this one before I replied.

Try TEXTAREA#enquiry (i think its funny that "enquiry" is spelled "encorrectly") :-)

You could also target that specific page, like this:

#contactusBody TEXTAREA
