Re: removing footer image / changing footer image

Since you can see your site, you know what you are talking about, but we don't. Might you be referring to the banner that appears at the bottom of the page in a default installation of Zen Cart, or are you using a template where the author has added a image? Do you have a link to your site?

Re: removing footer image / changing footer image

Still unable to help as the site is password protected and you still haven't given any clues as to what template you are using, or what image your are referring to.

Re: removing footer image / changing footer image

You manage the banners in the same location in the admin.....look at how the current banners are set up....

Re: removing footer image / changing footer image

ahhhh, i get it. i can make my own banners to the size that i want. then upload it into the banners area (whereever i decide really) then choose it from the banner manager. i get the logic. so i dont really need to know where the hard coded img tags are as i can use the banner manager to pull in what banners i actually want.

please confirm that this is the case......or not

Re: removing footer image / changing footer image

yup you got it. Also remember you can put banners in unique group by using the group name. You can create whatever group names you want. Then you set what groups to show in what banner position in admin>configuration>layout settings in the banner display groups section.

Re: removing footer image / changing footer image

ahh thats heavy, so u mean i can have different banner configurations depending on what group i choose. so i can have themed banners grouped together, nice. this is certainly better than osc, while i am here. can you confirm for me the downloads of mp3. once i zip up the release and put them in the download section (folder) all i need to do is put the url to the zip file and the shop will then be able to take care of it? it will use that url to find the zipped mp3 once th epayment has been accepted?

Re: removing footer image / changing footer image

OK you got the understanding of banners. Now downloads......got that one wrong....

Downloads get built like any other product.....to start.....then you would set up attributes for the product and in the attributes you would set the filename and download expiration info...in admin>configuration>attribute settings you can enable downloads and some other settings.

Re: removing footer image / changing footer image

i went to admin>configuration>attribute settings but i did not see the sectiob where i can enter the filename of the download. the only place i saw that was when i was entering the details of the file and it asks for url ion "Product in Category:" i was able to enter the url in the section Products URL: (without http://). other than that how will the shop know where the downloadable file is?

Re: removing footer image / changing footer image

You don't set filenames there....thats handled at the attributes controller....go to the following tutorial and read it.....twice...before you start setting up the downloads.

https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/index.php?article=71

Its easier for you to read it there than for me to explain it. I'm good at downloads being I have a cart with 3174 of them with two versions of downloads per product.
So come back and ask questions once you read and give it a try if you have problems.

Re: removing footer image / changing footer image

actually you probably should have one option name (Download) and one option value (zipped mp3) and then you would goto the attributes controller and using the dropdown pick the category you want to work with. Then the list of products in that category appear, pick the product you want to work with and click the display button. Now in the adding new attributes section highlight the option name and option value in the lists, if your product is base price only ignore the price/weight section, in the flags section make Default Attribute to be Marked Selected to yes, and finally at the bottom is the place to put the filename and expiration info for the download.......then hit insert.

All of your downloads will use the same option name and value they just have a different filname.......

Re: removing footer image / changing footer image

No, as long as your are putting downloads in the downloads folder the filename only is fine. The logic behind the system knows where they are.
