Help moving the 'new products' feature

Hi, I can find heaps of help on how to remove the 'new products' feature on the front page, but I can't find any help on how to move it.

I have two zencart sites that I am currently working on, and the first one displays the 'new products for June' where I would like it to be,(http://www.bigbeautifulfashions.com), but the second one, I just can't seem to get it to display where I want, or find where to edit it. http://www.bb-fashions.com

I would like the 'new products for June' in the bb-fashions site, to display below the introduction on the main page. Could anyone help please? I am stumped. :frusty:
I have compared the settings in both admin sections and they seem to be set up the same. Thanks in advance.

Re: Help moving the 'new products' feature

I think if you made your main wrapper wider for starters it might help, having it at only 70% means everything is squished up and moved to different places, might want to try 90 or 95% perhaps :)

#mainWrapper {
    background-color: #ffffff;
    text-align: left;
    width: 70%;
    vertical-align: top;
        border: 1px solid #9a9a9a;
    }

Here is what it looks like on my screen...

Re: Help moving the 'new products' feature

Thanks for that tip... Even though I like the smaller width, I want it to display properly on everyones screen, so will try different widths. Can anyone else help me out with having the 'new products for June' moved further down the page? thanks.

Re: Help moving the 'new products' feature

You're source code shows that everything is supposed to appear where it should, ie, the new products underneath your main content, but because of the width of everything, it is displaying wrong in the browser, I see you've adjust the width to 85% however in my browser it still does not display right, I use 1024X768 resolution and I can only imagine it being worse for smaller resolutions LOL

To have it display right, it needs to be at least 95%, I am guessing, though perhaps a fixed width might be better in your case, from what I can calculate you would need to set it around 900px....that should take care of the problem of the new products not appearing where they should, but even if it doesn't may give us more of a chance to see why it won't lol I am a PITA I know ;)

Re: Help moving the 'new products' feature

Thank you for your help christon26. I set it to 900px but it still wasn't wide enough, so have settled on 1200px. Unfortunately it did not make any difference to where the 'new products' were displayed, but I went and removed the table I was using to show the three pics I had on the front page, then success! It is now all displaying how I wanted. Thank you all again for your prompt help.
If anyone has the time, would you mind giving me some feedback if my site is now displaying correctly, with everything in align, as it should be?
thanks :D
