Apple Zen Support Thread

Ok, thanks.

4. You said you wanted a third column. I assumed that meant you want a left sidebox, a center and then a right sidebox. You can only have one sidebox with this template. If that's not what you mean, then I don't know what you mean.[/quote]

No, what i was asking was:

1. How can I add a 3rd column to the main body, where my categories are listed?So what i was asking was can there be more than 2 columns in the center where the product listing is (not the sideboxes)? As in a table?

Thanks,
Alice

I have a PositiveSSL certificate from Comodo installed on my site. I would like to know how to insert the PositiveSSL seal.gif on the bottom of my pages. I've uploaded the .gif to the images folder,

Hi I've managed to display the image on the footer but I've positioned it a bit on the wonky side! How can the script be altered to make the image display centrally underneath "copyright zencart" etc?

Good news is... the manual has arrived...and this issue has been swiftly addressed.
God bless the printed word:smile:

Thing is, I've asked this question on the main forum, 28 views no replies, so I thought I'd ask here too.

I'd like to change the properties of "button_create_account.gif" to make it go to a specific url rather than to the create account form.

Thanks in advance:smile:

Would I be correct in assuming that this is the script I should be altering?
**
tpl_login_default.php**

Did you know that under "Configuration", "Maximum Values", there is a "categories per row" option.

Sorry for the delayed reply, I'm working a full time job outside of the house how. :flex:

That's probably the correct section, however I'd just add the link manually, vs. getting it to work within the php, like this:

There's nothing wrong with cheating now and again. :cool:

lastnight i installed apple zen and i need a little assistance
click here to see it http://ntspb.com

1. on my drop down categories there is an additional box with nothing in it next to the "shopping cart". how do i remove it?

2. I would like to put some wording to the right of the logo. what page do put that in?

3. I would like to add a google web search either at the very top of the page or on the left next to "welcome guest"

I just realized I missed your post.

1. Follow the instructions here:
   http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?p=406644&highlight=percentage+widths#post406644

2. Naturally in apple zen, the tagline goes to the right of the logo. The tagline is added/modified in includes/languages/english/YOUR_TEMPLATE/header.php in the HEADER_SALES_TEXT section.

3. You could probably add this somewhere in common/tpl_header.php to get it at the very top of the page.

Just one small question. I want to turn off some of the sideboxes on the right; however I've noticed that the sidebox does not respond to the admin controls . . . any guidance would be appreciated.

Great it works...but not completely...will need a bit of tweaking.

1. The link is now non SSL, can that be amended in the script you gave me?
2. The button has gone, just text now, not the end of the world but would be nice to have the button back:smile:

click on sign up and you'll see what I mean

Its not a script, its just plain html. Er... you didn't change YOUR_TEMPLATE to your actual template name:

includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/buttons/english/button_create_account.gif

To make the link ssl, just put https:// instead of http://.

I didn't disable any admin functions, however, the sideboxes can only be on the right.... If you have a sidebox on for the left side, it will show up underneath any right sideboxes. to turn off the sideboxes, go to "Tools", "Layout Boxes Controller".

Hi Jade.
Many, many thanks for you guidance. It's all working beautifully now.

Any thoughts on this:

When I use a £ in text on a php file eg £2.49, it displays as A£2.49 (A with squiggle on top)

Cheers,
Gordon.

I don't know too much about that... but you might try using the HTML code for the GBP symbol, which is: & #163;

remove the space between & and #

Ha ha . . . we'll I'm embarassed . . . :blush:

The only reason I asked was because I wanted to turn off 'categories' but it was still showing on the right . . . I went in and turned the categories off on both options but it was still there, thus I go looking for help . . .

Yea, turned off the 'document_categories' . . .

Thanks!

Thank you Jade. You truly are a star:yes:

Hi Jade
I dont know where to turn to for this problem I have, I would appreciate if you could help me about this problem of mine.
The center page of my main site home page: new, featured and special products bars have disappeared since yesterday, I think other bars in the center of other pages are effected too.
Could you tell me what to do? In which page the PHP code that forms the bars is?
You can see the bars in this other same site (same files): http://www.aromaegusto.co.uk/index1.php
(has index1.php because I have it jumping to my main site:
http://www.aroma-gusto.co.uk/)
Could it be the server? My main site is kept by certified zen-cart hosting.
I hope to ear from you soon.
Kind Regards
Franco

I see those center blocks just fine.

Oops...by changing the create account button I have now found another glitch:frusty:

I now need the "Go To Checkout" button to point to the "Create Account" form!

I really have tried very hard to work this one out but without success..can I ask for your assistance again:cry:

Thanks for your answer Jade
Which explorer do you use? I use IE7 and Firefox but I see the three blocks of images but not the Brown Bar on top of each block that says "New Products for september", "Featured Products", "Special Products".
What I dont see is also the bar on each page that says "Customers who bought this product also purchased..."
I want them to work on this site www.aroma-gusto.co.uk
Any idea what could have happened to me not seeing them?
Thanks
Franco

Are you using a template that you downloaded from here?

Did you check the language file, english.php? Are these blank in there?

TEXT_ALSO_PURCHASED_PRODUCTS
TABLE_HEADING_FEATURED_PRODUCTS
TABLE_HEADING_NEW_PRODUCTS
TABLE_HEADING_SPECIALS_INDEX
