Is this what your looking for Brian?

That's really odd Brian..
Using Chrome (on a windows machine), Safari on iPad and Firefox on Mac its all the same for me here - double pages and bunched up Latest Products
-
Hi All,
Its been a long time since I have sought help from this wonderful forum but I am back.
I was about to point somebody to my website when I noticed all of my pages are boubling up, scroll to the bottom of the page and the page starts again so there are 2x of each page on each page:
Also, all of the 'Latest Products at the bottom are all over the place/Bunched up.
I havent touched a thing, last time I looked everything was fine and dandy.
I do have that 6Scan scanning every day so that could make changes, I can think of nothing else that could have changed anything !
I'm still running 5.2.8 with the Vector theme.
Also I did report in the past that I was unable to set my own custom colours, thats not such a big problem so got around that as best I could - I'm not worried about that but it may be contributing to my current problem somehow?
I should of course update to the latest version but as Brian will remember (as he helped me get in the past) I had some things made for my installation:
This http://www.greyprint.co.uk/index.php?_a=letter
and an 'Image Uploader' option which I am sure will not work after an upgrade hence my sticking where I am.
Can anybody shed any light on why my pages may be doubling up?

Thanks DB, unfortunately it doesn't

Hi All,
It's been a while but I am back, with another odd problem !
People keep telling me that my website is a bit 'Dull' - I have not been able to use 'Custom Colours' for a while ! I can keep changing things in the Fusion Configuration and saving them of course but no changes happen at all
It stuck at default which is Dull I admit.
I changed to A2 Hosting a few months ago - that's about the only thing I have changed, I think I was still having this 'Stuck' colour issue before I moved.
I'm talking about this here: www.greyprint.co.uk
I did search the forums but nothing so yet again I fear this is a problem peculiar to only me
Does anybody (Brian) have any clues ?
-
Hi Folks,
I need help with A2 Hosting, a site I look after which uses Virtumart 1.1.9 has stopped adding things to the cart (I think this is since I moved to these new servers) and I am trying to fix it. It takes ages to get a response from the a2 Guru's so I am asking here.
Who knows how to turn off 'Safe Mode' in the A2 Hosting backend?
It's not a cubecart site I am having problems with so I shouldnt really be asking here but I did use the forums link to buy my new hosting.
I have an extra 9 people staying at my house this week - 5 of them are small children so I have my hands full.. this problem is the last thing I needed - everyone else is outside in the garden in the Sun
-
Just noticed that the custom colours I have set in my 'Fusion Configuration' are not being applied.
This has happened since I moved to a new server - it's no big deal as I like the default 'Grey' but I cant help wondering what might have caused this.
Has anybody else come across this?
-
Ah, that's done it - Many thanks as ever Brian.
It's just a shame they have missed a few pixels off of the right hand side of their seal.
-
ok, If I try this:
</div> <div id="badges" class="span6"> <div id="6scan_badge" style="bottom: 0; right: 0; position:fixed; _position: absolute;"> <a href="https://api.wp.6scan.com/dashboard/v1/badge/click?url=http%3A%2F%2Fgreyprint.co.uk%2F"> <img alt="Site protected by 6Scan" title="6Scan" style="width:200px;opacity:1;" src="https://api.wp.6scan.com/dashboard/v1/badge/image?url=http%3A%2F%2Fgreyprint.co.uk%2F"/> </a> <a href="#"> <img src="{$STORE_URL}/skins/{$SKIN_FOLDER}/img/PayPal-Logo1.png" alt="Shop Securely with paypal - You do not need an account to use Paypal to pay" /> </a>
The paypal logo and the 6Scan seal both appear outside outside of the content area, I missed the </div> off of the end of the 6scan code as thats how it appears above in your message
-
I think this is around the area I need to put the code, I have been messing about with placing it but its always outside the border of the main content:
{/if} {/foreach} </nav> <div id="footerbottom"> <div class="row-fluid"> <div id="copyright" class="span6"> {$COPYRIGHT} {* IMPORTANT: Do not edit or remove the link immediately below without prior purchase of a "rebranding license" from ShopDev. Doing so may result in your license being revoked. *} Designed by <a href="http://www.shopdev.co.uk">ShopDev</a> </div> <div id="badges" class="span6"> <a href="#"> <img src="{$STORE_URL}/skins/{$SKIN_FOLDER}/img/PayPal-Logo1.png" alt="Shop Securely with paypal - You do not need an account to use Paypal to pay" /> </a> </div> </div> </div> </footer><!-- /#page-footer --> </div> </div> <!-- Plugin JavaScripts --> {foreach from=$JS_SCRIPTS key=k item=script} <script type="text/javascript" src="{$STORE_URL}/{$script|replace:'':'/'}"></script> {/foreach} {if !empty($IMAGE_UPLOAD_JS)}{$IMAGE_UPLOAD_JS}{/if}
This is in main.php
I want to put it to the left of the Paypal logo ideally - any suggestions on where to place the code?
<div id="6scan_badge" style="bottom: 0; right: 0; position:fixed; _position: absolute;"> <a href="https://api.wp.6scan.com/dashboard/v1/badge/click?url=http%3A%2F%2Fgreyprint.co.uk%2F"> <img alt="Site protected by 6Scan" title="6Scan" style="width:200px;opacity:1;" src="https://api.wp.6scan.com/dashboard/v1/badge/image?url=http%3A%2F%2Fgreyprint.co.uk%2F"/> </a> </div>
-
I'm sure I have been through this before as I managed to get a Paypal icon in the footer of my index page but I just cant remember how I did it.
What I want to do is put a 6scan security seal to the right of my paypal logo: www.greyprint.co.uk
Here's the code but where to put it is the question?
<div id="6scan_badge" style="bottom: 0; right: 0; position:fixed; _position: absolute;"> <a href="https://api.wp.6scan.com/dashboard/v1/badge/click?url=http%3A%2F%2Fgreyprint.co.uk%2F"> <img alt="Site protected by 6Scan" title="6Scan" style="width:200px;opacity:1;" src="https://api.wp.6scan.com/dashboard/v1/badge/image?url=http%3A%2F%2Fgreyprint.co.uk%2F"/> </a> </div>
Thanks in advance

I did ask but they didnt answer that particular question - when I started with them it was 75GB per day, from what I have read since it has increased so we should be ok
-
"Please note that we do not support customers in compressing data in a zip format. There is no other option than to download all the data manually via FTP."
They are making it difficult.. Brian's solution is the only way - still thinning out what I have there.
-
I have asked them if they will compress the directories for me, I did ask before but maybe I will get a different operative this time who might interpret what I asked differently.
As their response before was "We cannot support customers in compressing data in a zip format. Customers should be asked to download their files (data)in uncompressed format from the account manually via FTP."
I will try and slim down some of that data - as I say it is years old and there will be lots I dont need now, mostly things for other people are there - small pages etc which are out of date.

No SSH with Servage
I was talked into using them as originally I was with 1and1 which was overkill for me, and now I am stuck.
But I have 6 months to figure out a way of getting away from it - I will probably have to find a fast connection and use that.
-
That did cross my mind, today I am lucky with 3.3mb download and .7 upload.
NikGrey.com: 4,918,571,845 bytes - 36gb
Greyprint: 473,558 bytes - 3.5gb
CjbPhotographic 187 bytes - 1.4gb
It would take me a long time to download the three domains I want to transfer, no idea exactly how long but certainly a long time - and uploading again at this speed would be days.
The databases are not a problem, exporting/importing and config.
I guess this is the reason they wanted everything compressed into One file
-
No, It's not cPanel based.
I can back up my Joomla sites and of course the Cubecart site so I am not sure why that is not good enough for what they want to do The problem is I cant compress everything - seems to me they have intentionally created this environment to trap people there.
This just makes me want to escape even more, I will have to leave it another 6 months as Servage will renew immanently - I will plan it a bit better next time.
Unfortunately the last few days I have spent in bed as I managed to get a bug thats been going around so couldnt put enough time into this - I'm hardly ever ill, but when I am the timing is terrible
-
well, they say without command line access and the ability to compress everything into a single directory they cant help.
I was just tempted by the faster host at the same price as Servage - I'm not interested in spending a fortune on hosting as I am only a 'one man band' so it looks like I am stuck.
Brian, we did do something like this when I was trying to create a mirror site on my own server for a test installation of cubecart - I'm quite shocked that A2 are telling me they cant help - maybe they dont need the business
-
I am moving from Servage to A2 Hosting.
At the moment I have my nikgrey.com as the root and cjbpphotographic and greyprint as directories - would I benefit from having greyprint as the root or should I leave it as it is? (I am talking about search engine exposure).
The only problem I can see is Servage do not have a way to zip everything into One directory - for A2 to expand on their own servers..hmmm.
Is there anything obvious I have not considered ? keep in mind I do not do this very often - in fact this is the second time I have ever done it.
I'm hoping all of my emails addresses, my special scripts and everything else thats slightly less than normal will continue to work !! time will tell.
-
I would love to know this too - I am using the Vector skin.
-
I am still on 5.2.12 and will not be upgrading until I really have to - (because I am frightened of breaking the hard work Brian has helped me with in terms of getting my custom mods to work properly.)
I am however keen on upgrading Analytics to the latest version as my website seems to be working now, quite well in terms of sales and I want to know more about the customers.
sooo, I will implement this now following Brian's advice above and report back once I know if its working properly- you know me, I will be back to report if its not working too.
** For those using the Vector skin go to line 79 for the part you are looking to replace - its not at the top.
-
Thanks Brian, that's an excellent suggestion.
I just want a way to post images, with some explanatory text about how I have made a particular product (which is tied to the main site by domain) as doing this via social network sites is all well and good but at the end onf the day I have no full control over those platforms.
I was also hoping to same the same look/feel as the rest of the site so your suggestion is spot on
.. and from what you say it sounds like you were involved in that creation too.. outstanding.
-
I'm looking to add a Blog about my products and link to it from my Cubecart so look out for my next barrage of questions
I guess the best way is to use a Wordpress blog ? or is there a Cubecart version I have not seen ??
Of course I would like Greyprint.co.uk/Blog

I had this problem a few times, Momar did respond eventually - it seems somebody (jollygreenj*ant) had been hijacking my domain, somehow claiming my license as his own.
He was able to hijack my license as I hadnt gone into my shopdev account and 'Locked' my domain - Homar did it in the end but at no point was I told to do this.

Many thanks everyone for taking the time to help me out.
Its really odd but for some reason everything is back to normal - I have not changed a thing !
I'm willing to bet its A2 hosting changing things.
All is well as I say but I will leave this thread here incase anyone else notices the same thing.
