Guest Rivian Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 I was wondering if I could remove some of the boxes that don't apply to my store. Help?! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest clothahump Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 If you go to skins/[skin name]/styleTemplates/global/index.tpl you will see this, <div class="colLeft"> {CATEGORIES} {RANDOM_PROD} {INFORMATION} {CURRENCY} {LANGUAGE} </div> <div class="colMid"> {PAGE_CONTENT} </div> <div class="colRight"> {SHOPPING_CART} {POPULAR_PRODUCTS} {SALE_ITEMS} {MAIL_LIST} </div> Remove the Boxes you do not want.

Guest Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 I want to move the menu items (additional pages) from laying out across the top into a left side box. http://www.specializedsaddles.com/ordershop/ I've done it - but the links will not show up. Can someone give me some help on doing this - the box is named site navigation. Thanks in advance! Lorri Nevil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 Okay - just to help anyone else who might be wanting to do what I wanted - I edited my customized skin - under boxes: /public_html/ordershop/skins/Saddles/styleTemplates/boxes <!-- BEGIN: site_docs --> <div class="boxTitleLeft">Site Navigation</div> <div class="siteDocs"> <!-- BEGIN: a --> <a href="index.php?act=viewDoc&docId={DATA.doc_id}" class="txtSiteDocs">{DATA.doc_name}</a> <!-- BEGIN: sep --><span class="txtSiteDocs"><br></span><!-- END: sep --> <!-- END: a --> </div> <!-- END: site_docs --> added: <div class="boxTitleLeft">Site Navigation</div> right under <!-- BEGIN: site_docs --> changed the separator from a | to a <br> <!-- BEGIN: sep --><span class="txtSiteDocs"><br></span><!-- END: sep --> and moved {SITE_DOCS} from the bottom of /public_html/ordershop/skins/Saddles/styleTemplates/global to: <div class="colLeft"> {CATEGORIES} {SHOPPING_CART} {POPULAR_PRODUCTS} {SALE_ITEMS} Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â {SITE_DOCS} {MAIL_LIST} </div> It's not exactly what I wanted as I would like to to be bulleted and had tried: <!-- BEGIN: site_docs --> <div class="boxTitleLeft">Site Navigation</div> <div class="siteDocs"> <ol> <!-- BEGIN: a --> Â <!-- BEGIN: li --> Â <li class="bullet"><a href="index.php?act=viewDoc&docId={DATA.doc_id}" class="txtSiteDocs">{DATA.doc_name}</a> <!-- BEGIN: sep --><span class="txtSiteDocs"><br></span><!-- END: sep --> Â <!-- END: li --> <!-- END: a --> </ol> </div> <!-- END: site_docs --> but this is what was making my box blank (no data). Looking at the difference in coding files between /public_html/ordershop/includes/boxes/siteDocs.inc.php & /public_html/ordershop/includes/boxes/categories.inc.php (which includes the bullets in the file), I was afraid I'd really mess it up! It is now showing up (minus bullets)-- I'll mess with the rest of the stuff in the .css file for font's etc. If anyone has suggestions for editing to include bullets - please jump in!

Guest Oscgfx Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 <!-- BEGIN: site_docs --> <div class="boxTitleLeft">Site Navigation</div> <div class="siteDocs"> <ol> <!-- BEGIN: a --> <li class="bullet"> <a href="index.php?act=viewDoc&docId={DATA.doc_id}" class="txtSiteDocs">{DATA.doc_name}</a> </li> <!-- BEGIN: sep --><br /><!-- END: sep --> <!-- END: a --> </ol> </div> <!-- END: site_docs --> Try that - to give it to you in a list. Replace your current /public_html/ordershop/skins/Saddles/styleTemplates/boxes/siteDocs.tpl with the above. You shouldnt have been changing things not in the skins directory - you can mess the store up if your not careful. Let me know how you get on.

Guest Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 That did it - http://www.specializedsaddles.com/ordershop/ Now I have to go mess with the .css and see why my fonts are small - THANK You! Lorri Nevil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Oscgfx Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 kaelin make sure you have a class in your stylesheet called bullet. Im not sure if there is a bullet class as default. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 Thanks - the bullets were there - the font size for the site nav was set to 75% - which I changed to 100% - now all is the same - thanks for your help! http://www.specializedsaddles.com/ordershop - it's starting to look pretty good :^^: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
convict Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 it's starting to look pretty good yes, starting but in FireFox are blank lines between site docs names because of truly applicable CR for <li> tag. IE ignores <li>s CR, FF neither. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest vrakas Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 Check also the Mailing List at the bottom as it has lines above and next to it It looks like arabic language in a very small font (No offence) Yes it does look very nice :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 Check also the Mailing List at the bottom as it has lines above and next to it Yes- and by the search - I noticed that after the upgrade to 3.0.1 but haven't tracked it down yet - I will of course, but it's low priority in terms of getting the rest of it done -- yes, starting but in FireFox are blank lines between site docs names because of truly applicable CR for <li> tag. IE ignores <li>s CR, FF neither Yes - that was on list - I just removed <!-- BEGIN: sep --><br /><!-- END: sep --> and it fixed it - looks right in both browsers now. Was a little worried since the sep was in the siteDocs.php file it might mess something up - but I don't see it yet if it did. I did notice again after the arabic character comment that in FireFox on the mailing list it's showing little bitty dashes i/o Join Now, while it's displaying correctly in IE (for the button) - so on to figure that one out Thanks for input.

Guest Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 I figured it out - my error -- when I was working on the site docs (they were set at 75%), and they needed to be same size as others - I accidentally let off part of the percentage - all fixed.

Guest moxie Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 Couldn't you just use CSS to hide the boxes if you didn't want it permanent? display: none; Just a thought... haven't tried it myself yet :^^: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 IMO - it's easier to just remove for instance {SALE_ITEMS} rather than messing with the css - but I guess it would be to each his own - I know that I'm barely comfortable with .css and that the store I'm working on is my first attempt to control images, etc with them. I just removed {SALE_ITEMS} since there aren't sale items - and move some of the variables from the right to the left and others that I didn't want there (i.e. currency, language) - and it was easy. Just my 2 cents :^^: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 If you go to skins/[skin name]/styleTemplates/global/index.tpl you will see this, <div class="colLeft"> {CATEGORIES} {RANDOM_PROD} {INFORMATION} {CURRENCY} {LANGUAGE} </div> <div class="colMid"> {PAGE_CONTENT} </div> <div class="colRight"> {SHOPPING_CART} {POPULAR_PRODUCTS} {SALE_ITEMS} {MAIL_LIST} </div> Remove the Boxes you do not want.

Guest vrakas Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 Perform a search as it has been posted many times in the past :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest swifter_uk Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 Perform a search as it has been posted many times in the past I cannot find any conclusive method for adding additional boxes, despite searching with various words!! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 There's probably a better way to do it, but I just used one of the boxes that I didn't need and changed the contents of it to say what I wanted. I think it was under skins/killer(or whatever skin)/styleTemplates/boxes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest vrakas Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 Hi swifter_uk and jbeyler, yes i think this is better. Ok then here it goes: look at template styleTemplates/global/index.tpl under your prefered skin folder, open it and modify. add code after {INFORMATION} <div class="boxTitleLeft">YOUR HEAD LINE</div> <div class="boxContentLeft"> ENTER HERE THE CONTENT YOU WISH </div> <div class="boxFootLeft"> </div> This works as it has been tested :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
