Cherry Zen Template Support Thread

heavenlynights:

Hi Jade

Got a bit of a cosmetic problem with firefox. I decided to add a table into the main page to display the majority of the content. I centered the table which looks fine in IE7 but if viewing in firefox it actually pulls the content to the left.

I used tabling as an alternative to increase the left and right margins of the content, as I did not know where to find this in the css and I thought I was going to save having to post on forum. but here I am posting :laugh:

Any help would be great. Maybe an indication as to where in the stylesheet I can change the margins.

Prior to me adding the table, the text on the main page, was to close to the sideboxes. I would much rather have the content 1-1.5 cm inward.

web address located in signature.

TIA
Try setting your table width to 540 pixels instead of 100%. What editor are you using? Text or HTMLarea? I might suggest that you get the latest version of FCKeditor for ZenCart (2.5.1 or .2) and try working with that.

Hi Jade. I found the problem it was a problem on my computer. All fixed now. I do have another question though. The pop up window with the larger image doesn't hold it all and there is no scroll bar.

Is there a way to make that window open up to the right size for the image?

That's all i'll bother you with. Again, a great template!!:clap:
Try installing Zen Lightbox. You will be amazed at what it does for your site.

Thanks for your response stuff4toys. I use fckeditor which came with the latest version of zen 1.3.8a. My table width is set to 700px.

I just tried setting the table width to 540px as suggested but that didn't change the position of the table in firefox as i didn't think that it would. It just made the table smaller.

ok. after having another look, it appeared that I had not centred the table properly in the editor which I thought that I had. in anycase all fixed now.

Thanks for your help

Your text still runs half way into your right column in FF3 in Ubuntu Linux.

That's weird, here's my table:

<table cellspacing="1" cellpadding="1" border="0" align="center" width="100%">
    <tbody>
        <tr>
```and it fits perfectly, looks great in FF 3, 2 and IE7/8 & Chrome.

It's IE6 I am having problems with.

Thanks stuff4toys. Ohh god, I hate all these different browers.:cry:

I use window FF 3.0.3 and windows IE 7. They look ok in those 2. I will change to your settings to see what it looks like in the 2 that I use and get back to you. Unfortunately or maybe fortunately (ignorance is bliss) i dont have any of the others browsers.

Re: Cherry Zen Template Support Thread

Sorry Folks,
I apologize for sounding like a Ragamuffian, but thanks for your repl, and so for all who dedicate quality man hours and donations in support of Zencart.
if i may reword my issue write, True the cart works alright and perfect except, When you click CHECK Out, the Page becomes jumbled at https://www.afrosupermarket.com
Buyaka.

Stuff4Toys:

Please remember that ALL help you get on this forum in Volunteer Help so be patient.
#1 www.tropicxotic.com does not exist
#2 I see nothing wrong with the cart, I put an item in the cart and it looks good.
Your right side panel looks out of wack on the Account Creation Page, is that where your question is? I am no expert, but take a second look at your stylesheet.css and see if you can find the error. I personally don't like going from 2 side columns to one or none, but that's up to you.

Take a look at mine http://www.nativitydisplays.com/

I wish I coul dbe of more help, but that's all I got.

All of your questions are answered in the Tutorials and FAQ's and the Owners Manual that you can purchase online.
Right below the header text,
It list the Categories in the center, how do i take that out?In the Admin go to Configuration click on Layout Settings
Near the bottom set "Categories-Tabs Menu ON/OFF" to OFF
Also With those Question ^^ up their. How dose one like in the demo get that grey box to go across the top.
In the demo it has Privacy Notice :: Shared On it.That again is discussed in the Tutorials and FAQ's. The gray box is caused by creating "EZ-Pages, search the tutorials for EZ-Pages.
Also on the homepage how do you add Featured Products and Monthly specials? like in the demoAgain covered very well in the Tutorials. This is an Admin Setting, you can turn them on or off and change their positions.
Try This book, I bought it when I first started with Zen-Cart and I literally wore it out.
[IMG]http://www.zen-cart.com/images/big-book.png[/IMG]
Sure I ask a few questions from time to time, but most of the answers to your questions can be found by searching this site.

Re: Cherry Zen Template Support Thread

absolutely silly first question, but I couldn't find the answer in the search feature - so no laughing...

When uploading the includes file to my site, do I overwrite the original includes file that is there or do I upload it INTO my preexisting includes file?

this is my first time working with Zen - help a newbie.

Thanks

cya

Ok made i made the changes and as far as the browsers go, everything looks to be fine on the 2 that I use, except now I am back to square one where the text is too close to the sideboxes, for my liking. This was the whole reason I used the table for my text so that I could have the text (main content) further away from the edge of the sideboxes.

There must be somewhere in the css where i can change where the text is positioned in the main content, If i can find this then make the necessary changes, then I can eliminate the table altogether. If someone knows where it is, can you please point me in the right direction.

TIA for any help and thanks to those who have already helped!! :smile:

Re: Cherry Zen Template Support Thread

Is there a way I can add a dividing line between each product listing, or maybe alternate background shading?

Here is a link:
http://www.newoldsounds.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=46_49

It seems somewhat difficult to read because it's all white behind the products.

Thanks,
Tim

Re: Cherry Zen Template Support Thread

Ok I have 2 questions and they may have been mentioned before but I am not searching 207 pages to find it.

I know this template was designed as a floating template but how do you go about making it fit all the way across the screen?

Second question the product decription is nw below the product where it was next to the product in the original template is there and easy way to fix this or would it be better left alone?

Examples:
below product

next to product

Re: Cherry Zen Template Support Thread

I put my test site (using Cherry Zen template - thanks for it) through the W3C Validator and the only issue was the 'type' of the search box at the top.

The search box is of type "search" but that is not a permitted type.
If I change includes/functions/extra_functions/search_field_header.php to change the $type parameter of zen_draw_search_field() to 'text' then all is okay.

W3C Validator Result:

Line 95, Column 367: value of attribute "type" cannot be "search"; must be one of "text", "password", "checkbox", "radio", "submit", "reset", "file", "hidden", "image", "button".

…22e397c4a15db3" /><input type="search" name="keyword" size="20" maxlength="30

The value of the attribute is defined to be one of a list of possible values but in the document it contained something that is not allowed for that type of attribute. For instance, the “selected” attribute must be either minimized as “selected” or spelled out in full as “selected="selected"”; a value like “selected="true"” is not allowed.

Re: Cherry Zen Template Support Thread

:oops:

Hi Jade. I found the problem it was a problem on my computer. All fixed now. I do have another question though. The pop up window with the larger image doesn't hold it all and there is no scroll bar.

Is there a way to make that window open up to the right size for the image?

That's all i'll bother you with. Again, a great template!!:clap:

Can you point me to a specific image that does this? This would be a good question for the general forum also, since my template doesn't mess with the files that control that function.

Re: Cherry Zen Template Support Thread

jonucla:

Hi,

I just recently installed zen cart 1.3.8 and is using the cherry zen template. I can access admin, add product and everything seems to be working fine except a few links. The Customer log in, my account, and check out link returns a page can not be displayed. I'm not sure whats going on, or where to look to solve this issue. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Link? Does this happen with the classic template? Those are all pages that would use SSL. Do you have SSL turned on? If so, did you purchase a SSL certificate? Try turning SSL off.

That is not a link to a zen cart site.

Did you turn them on at "Tools", "Layout Boxes Controller"?
