Cherry Zen Template Support Thread

jettrue:

No, the categories mod you are using no longer uses category-top. View the source of your site after you click on a category... in the source there is no category-top to be found ANYWHERE. You should ask in the thread for that mod if there is one, and you can style that menu in stylesheet_categories_menu.css.

um, it's not the site in my sig, and I have since reactivated the default category section as well (which is not modified) & cannot manage to alter sections of ONLY the category sidebox, either nothing happens or all links change, or center box as well, or all left sideboxes :frusty:

It is here:

& as mentioned, I've tried a number of things, I've already looked at the source & tried every class I could see, not just category-top, that's why I was wondering if it's something related to this template?

Hi Jade,

I actually have a question for the Simple Zen template but couldn't find a thread for that. I just switched to the Simple template and usually make my buttons to match the site or duplicate yours if I need more. But...I can't duplicate this one. Do you, by any chance, have a wishlist button for this template. I would gladly pay for you to make one if not. Just pm me with details.
The template is on my adult site:
http://www.sleeplessnightsonline.com/

Thanks again for yet another great template!

Kelly

I don't have one made... can make one in the next few days. :smile:

Sorry, my mind reading isn't working today.

since there is a color defined for a:link in this template, you can do this:

a.category-top:link {color:#000000;font-weight:bold;}

Re: Cherry Zen Template Support Thread

Hi Jade,

The code works and the css lines keeps the dots from appearing :smile:. The gap is still there, but now it only appears when there is an item in the cart. And the notice bar that is supposed to come up and say you have successfully added the item to your cart, doesn't come up anymore. Maybe that is a clue that will help the diagnosis?

Weird huh?

 
<!--bof-view cart and checkout now links-->   
<?php if ($_SESSION['cart']->count_contents() != 0) { ?>
<div id="ezLinks">
<ul class="forward">
<li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_SHOPPING_CART, '', 'NONSSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_CART_CONTENTS; ?></a></li>|  
<li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_CHECKOUT_SHIPPING, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_CHECKOUT; ?></a></li>
</ul>
</div>
<?php }?>
<!--eof-view cart and checkout now links-->

Thanks!

Re: Cherry Zen Template Support Thread

reposting problem I am experiencing with the large image on product info pages.

This problem is to do with the drop shadow on product images and the zen lightbox mod.

When you are using this template along with zen lightbox, something throws the drop image out. I managed to fix this using some instruction found in this thread.

Open your //cherry_zen/templates/tpl_modules_main_product_image.php file.

Around line 35, DELETE this:
Code:

if (ZEN_LIGHTBOX_STATUS == 'true') {

echo '<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript"><!-- document.write(\'<a href="' . zen_lightbox($products_image_large, addslashes($products_name), LARGE_IMAGE_WIDTH, LARGE_IMAGE_HEIGHT) . '" rel="lightbox[gallery]" title="' . addslashes($zen_lightbox_products_name) . '">' . zen_image($products_image_medium, addslashes($products_name), MEDIUM_IMAGE_WIDTH, MEDIUM_IMAGE_HEIGHT) . '<br /><span class="imgLink">' . TEXT_CLICK_TO_ENLARGE . '</span></a>\')//--></script>';

} else {

echo '<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript"><!-- document.write(\'<a href="javascriptopupWindow(\\\'' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_POPUP_IMAGE, 'pID=' . $_GET['products_id']) . '\\\')">' . zen_image($products_image_medium, addslashes($products_name), MEDIUM_IMAGE_WIDTH, MEDIUM_IMAGE_HEIGHT) . '<br /><span class="imgLink">' . TEXT_CLICK_TO_ENLARGE . '</span></a>\')//--></script>';

}

AND REPLACE IT WITH THIS:

Code:

if (ZEN_LIGHTBOX_STATUS == 'true') {

echo '<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript"><!-- document.write(\'<a href="' . zen_lightbox($products_image_large, addslashes($products_name), LARGE_IMAGE_WIDTH, LARGE_IMAGE_HEIGHT) . '" rel="lightbox[gallery]" title="' . addslashes($zen_lightbox_products_name) . '">' . zen_image($products_image_medium, addslashes($products_name), MEDIUM_IMAGE_WIDTH, MEDIUM_IMAGE_HEIGHT) . '</div></a>\')//--></script>';

} else {

echo '<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript"><!-- document.write(\'<a href="javascriptopupWindow(\\\'' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_POPUP_IMAGE, 'pID=' . $_GET['products_id']) . '\\\')">' . zen_image($products_image_medium, addslashes($products_name), MEDIUM_IMAGE_WIDTH, MEDIUM_IMAGE_HEIGHT) . '</div></a>\')//--></script>';

}

Around line 41 look for this line:

<!-- eof Zen Lightbox v1.4 aclarke 2007-09-15 -->

On the next line insert this code:
Code:

<div id="productMainImage" class="centeredContent back">

Insert this code at the very BOTTOM after the </div> tag:
Code:

<p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><br /> <div id="productMainImage2" class="centeredContent back"><span class="imgLink"><a href="<? zen_lightbox($products_image_large, addslashes($products_name), LARGE_IMAGE_WIDTH, LARGE_IMAGE_HEIGHT) . '" rel="lightbox[gallery]" title="' . addslashes($zen_lightbox_products_name); ?>">  larger image</a></span></div>

Now open your //cherry_zen/css/stylesheet.css and insert this into your stylesheet:

Code:

#productMainImage2 {
float:left;
margin: -5px 0 0 10px !important;
margin: -5px 0 0 5px;
}

The first margin entries (-5px) above will move the text up or down relative to the picture depending on the number you use.

But as soon as I did this, it fixed the initial problem but created another problem where as on the product info page, when you click on the text link "larger Image" it takes you back to the index page instead of opening up the image.

Any suggestions on how to fix would be much appreciated!!. link to a product can be found by Clicking Here

TIA

As for the message, the code above shouldn't affect it. You didn't miss the closing <?php }?> in the above code, right?

Since I don't use the lightbox mod, this is hard for me to test. I'll try to take a look in the next few days, but it might take me a bit.

Re: Cherry Zen Template Support Thread

I am having a problem with the header bar. I have my site set up in engish and in portuguese. When I have the page in portuguese the words on the "shopping cart" ("carrinho de compras" in portuguese) link on the header bar wrap and fall out of line with the rest of the header bar. How can I set it so that the width of the category changes automatically to accomodate the longer words and avoid having the text wrap.

Re: Cherry Zen Template Support Thread

Hi Jade,

I put this at line 654 of my stylesheet. Should it be somewhere else?

#ezLinks ul li {display:inline;}

I'm not seeing the ezLinks css uploaded to your site?

Thanks.

It doesn't matter where you put it, but it wasn't there the other day when I was looking at your site.

What "Nav" in the header are you talking about?

Why not use the ezpages function to add those as ezpage links in your footer?

Re: Cherry Zen Template Support Thread

I think I found part of what I was looking for.
I was worried that I had messed things up by already having the grid layout module, then installing Cherry Zen over it- but I assume the Cherry Zen template file overides the default template files? I found this thread regarding the column grid layout I was asking about- it offers an update (Pro) that corrects the issue I was having: http://zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?p=495288#post495288. So that fixed the font centering issue & gridlines.

I have learned quite a bit by your detailed instructions with your template files as well as this thread - thank you.

Re: Cherry Zen Template Support Thread

dmk909:

Hello Jade.
Thanks so much for this template. I have been teaching myself how to work these files & practicing on a test server before I upload. I am almost ready but a couple things are still bugging me & I can't figure them out.

I am using column layout for product listings. I would like as many products as possible on a listing page. I plan to have hundreds of products & don't want shoppers wasting time having to navigate page after page. I understand having to adjust the image size for the product listing page, but I don't know how to adjust the fonts. They are left justified and I would like them smaller & centered. I also would like the spaces removed between the product name, the price & the cart. Pretty much I need to consolidate & shrink the entire box.

I also noticed, when I increase the column count, the row count decreases. So if I increase to 6 columns, I have only 1 row. Your dotted lines sadly disappear with this many columns also.

My ideal listing pages would have 6 columns with at least 4 rows of products.
I am hoping you can tell me what to modify even though I'm not yet online.
Thanks,
Diana

I would like to ask if is possible to use Fual Slimbox or Lightbox with this template? and what editing you would need to do to get it to work?

This will take more than one step, but I will try to explain it the way I did it.

Locate the fileincludes/templates/Cherry_zen/common
open tpl_header.php

Locate the following code"> <li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCTS_NEW, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><span><?php echo New_Arrivals; ?></span></a></li>

        <li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_ACCOUNT, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><span><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_MY_ACCOUNT; ?></span></a></li>
        <?php } } ?>
        <li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_SHOPPING_CART, '', 'NONSSL'); ?>"><span><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_CART_CONTENTS; ?></span></a></li>
        <li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_CHECKOUT_SHIPPING, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><span class="last"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_CHECKOUT; ?></span></a></li>
      </ul>

if you want to add a link you can copy one of the line starting with<li> and then paste it wherever you want to add the "about us" link.

Make sure you edit the link to correspond to the about us files, for example change these 2 links > <?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_SHOPPING_CART, '', 'NONSSL')

?php echo HEADER_TITLE_CART_CONTENTS;

This might get confusing, you better off adding a link in the ez-pages header section.
