Rustic Template Support Thread

YEEEEEESS!!! Thanks! Great!

Clyde I was hoping you could answer this for me. I want to put up banners on my site. What size do the banners have to be with the rustic template? I need to know the sizes for the wide banners and the ones that go into the right and left columns.

Thank you
Dale

The width for the sidebox banners should be no larger than 130px

The width for the wide banners should be no larger that 700px

I am trying to remove the whole tag line at the top of the page. I thought if i deleted: ```php
define('HEADER_SALES_TEXT', 'TagLine Here<br />This text can be changed by<br />editing <code>includes/languages/english/rustic/header.php</code><br />To replace the logo, upload your logo.gif to <code>includes/templates/rustic/images/</code>');

Never mind i figured it out!!!

Hello Clyde:
I sell one of a kind items. So when they are sold the Zen Cart deletes the item. This is a problem because they can not go back and write a review on the item. Is there any way to just mark the item as SOLD and leave it on the site?

Not a template specific question!

check admin -> configuration -> stock -> Products status in Catalog when out of stock should be set to (set to 1)

Sorry Clyde. I looked but had no luck so thought I would ask you and as usual you gave me the correct answer. I appreciate what you do. Thank you!

Hi Clyde and everyone :)

I have been reading these pages and don't see my problem.

I installed the rustic template but for some reason my sidebars are not showing.

Please advise.

I am off to work for now and will check back in later.

After installing and selecting the template did you:

go to admin -> tools -> layout boxes controller

scroll to the bottom of the page and click the reset button.

From the readme file that comes with the template:

INSTALLATION:

Unzip the Package and upload the entire includes folder to your server.

**In your admin panel, go to admin -> tools -> template selection, click the edit button, choose the template from the dropdown menu and click update.

Now go to admin -> tools -> layout boxes controller, Scroll down to the bottom of the screen and click the reset button.**

Open your site in your browser and view the new template in action.

Darn don't I feel like a dork :P hee hee. I totally didn't see that when I read the read me file.

Thanks. I will try to keep my questions to few and far between.

Tootles!

Hi Clyde I have a problem. I have the template installed but when you look at my web site for a while the top separates or drops down. It does it in IE also. I don't know what is causing it. It did it before I change anything. If you don't mind take a look at it for me here I have the cherry template installed but I wanted another one so I can change the look now and then. Thank You. It only happens when you scroll down at the bottom and then back to the top. OK when you click the search box then scroll down.

I bet you have IH2 installed and forgot to put the "jscript" files and the ih stylesheet in includes/templates/rustic/jcript/ and includes/templates/rustic/css.

You are right and that seem to fix it. Thank You clyde. I have 7 W3C validation errors to fix now some how.

I think those are being caused by the minify script your are using.

What do you think I can do to fix them. I am off topic I know sorry.
I think I will need to look at this some more tomorrow. Thank You clyde again. I will check back with you tomorrow.

Clyde can you take a look at my site here and tell me why the categories side box starts off in the middle of the page when you first arrive at the site. Also when you add an item to the cart if you look a the side box for the shopping cart the price is way to the right and not in the middle like it should be. One more thing when you add an item to the cart and go view your cart at the top is their a way I can get the price to line up so it is in line with unit and total. Right now it is to the right of the unit and total. I would like it to be in the middle, if that makes sense. How do I move the model number up under the price. I still have some validation errors but I don't know where to look to fix them. I know 2 of them are from the minify script but I don't have a clue where the other one are. I have search and search. Thank you for all your help Clyde. You are a great help to the community.

Clyde I have one more question, how do I get my faq page to open in a new window from this code. Thank You again.

<li<?php echo(($current_page_base == 'faq') ? ' class="current">' : ' class="faq">');?><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_FAQ, '', 'NONSSL'); ?>"><?php echo '<span>' . BOX_INFORMATION_FAQ . '</span>'; ?></a></li>

tell me why the categories side box starts off in the middle of the page when you first arrive at the site.
Find the following declaration in the stylesheet.css and make the highlighted change to see if that corrects the problem.
.centerColumn {
padding: 0.8em;
position: relative;
}

• Also when you add an item to the cart if you look a the side box for the shopping cart the price is way to the right and not in the middle like it should be*.
  The rustic template does not modify the shopping cart sidebox.

One more thing when you add an item to the cart and go view your cart at the top is their a way I can get the price to line up so it is in line with unit and total.
Find the following declarations in the stylesheet.css and adjust the margin and padding settings.
.cartUnitDisplay
.cartTotalDisplay

How do I move the model number up under the price.

open includes/templates/template_default/templates/tpl_product_info_display.php

find and move this entire block of code under the the price block.

<!--bof Product details list  -->
<?php if ( (($flag_show_product_info_model == 1 and $products_model != '') or ($flag_show_product_info_weight == 1 and $products_weight !=0) or ($flag_show_product_info_quantity == 1) or ($flag_show_product_info_manufacturer == 1 and !empty($manufacturers_name))) ) { ?>
<ul id="productDetailsList" class="floatingBox back">
  <?php echo (($flag_show_product_info_model == 1 and $products_model !='') ? '<li>' . TEXT_PRODUCT_MODEL . $products_model . '</li>' : '') . "\n"; ?>
  <?php echo (($flag_show_product_info_weight == 1 and $products_weight !=0) ? '<li>' . TEXT_PRODUCT_WEIGHT .  $products_weight . TEXT_PRODUCT_WEIGHT_UNIT . '</li>'  : '') . "\n"; ?>
  <?php echo (($flag_show_product_info_quantity == 1) ? '<li>' . $products_quantity . TEXT_PRODUCT_QUANTITY . '</li>'  : '') . "\n"; ?>
  <?php echo (($flag_show_product_info_manufacturer == 1 and !empty($manufacturers_name)) ? '<li>' . TEXT_PRODUCT_MANUFACTURER . $manufacturers_name . '</li>' : '') . "\n"; ?>
</ul>
<br class="clearBoth" />
<?php
  }
?>
<!--eof Product details list -->

make sure to save the edited file to includes/templates/rustic/templates/tpl_product_info_display.php

I still have some validation errors but I don't know where to look to fix them.*
One of the problems is that
includes/templates/rustic/common/html_header.php
is missing a closing </head> tag.

<li<?php echo(($current_page_base == 'faq') ? ' class="current">' : ' class="faq">');?><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_FAQ, '', 'NONSSL'); ?>"><?php echo '<span>' . BOX_INFORMATION_FAQ . '</span>'; ?></a></li>

You can replace the the code you have with the following.

```php
<li<?php echo(($current_page_base == 'faq') ? ' class="current">' : ' class="faq">');?><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_FAQ, '', 'NONSSL'); ?>" target="_blank"><?php echo '<span>' . BOX_INFORMATION_FAQ . '</span>'; ?></a></li>
