Re: X-Cart Smart Template v4.4.x
 

Any news on the release date for the updated Smart Template skin? Site still says end of August. Just wondering if anyone has any ideas on the delay.

Re: X-Cart Smart Template v4.4.x
 

The update is not an updated Smart Template but a completely new template. I have been waiting since July.

Hello everyone, I just completed a fresh install of x-cart version 4.4.3 and smart template v 4.4.x and now the NIVO SLIDER does not work after I change it to add my own products and images. Do any of you know of a bug or other issues with using the NIVO SLIDER with this version of x-cart? Here is the code that I have in the slider.tpl

<div id="slider" class="nivoSlider">
<a href="product.php?productid=257"><img src="http://stitches4u.com/images/slider/image_1" alt="" title="" /></a>
<a href="product.php?productid=137"><img src="http://stitches4u.com/images/slider/image_2" alt="" title="" /></a>
<a href="product.php?productid=571"><img src="http://stitches4u.com/images/slider/image_3" alt="" title="" /></a>
<a href="product.php?productid=910"><img src="http://stitches4u.com/images/slider/image_4" alt="" title="" /></a>
<a href="product.php?productid=123"><img src="http://stitches4u.com/images/slider/image_5" alt="" title="" /></a>
<a href="product.php?productid=345"><img src="http://stitches4u.com/images/slider/image_6" alt="" title="" /></a>
<a href="product.php?productid=678"><img src="http://stitches4u.com/images/slider/image_7" alt="" title="" /></a>
<a href="product.php?productid=910"><img src="http://stitches4u.com/images/slider/image_8" alt="" title="" /></a>
<a href="product.php?productid=345"><img src="http://stitches4u.com/images/slider/image_9" alt="" title="" /></a>
</div>


Thank you very much in advance for your help and time.

You are missing the file extension on your image names. Correct img src URL for your first image should be:
and so on for the rest of them.

Thank you. dont know how I missed that.

Re: X-Cart Smart Template v4.4.x
 

I have been out of the loop for a while with my cart, has Phil come out with any new versions of the template yet because I am also having a problem with my product list page and the way it is displaying some products. It seem to be missing the hr tag in between some products.

Sorry, I wasn't paying attention before...ideally you should be using a relative path to each of those images, not a hard-coded URL otherwise you will be faced with insecure warnings for visitors when accessing via https

Re: X-Cart Smart Template v4.4.x
 

sparker2, you could create a new directory...

skin/smart_template/custom/images

Upload your slider images there.

Then use...

<a href="product.php?productid=257"><img src="{$AltSkinDir}/custom/images/slider/image_1.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a>
<a href="product.php?productid=258"><img src="{$AltSkinDir}/custom/images/slider/image_2.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a>

etc.

v4.4.4 is released today, so I will be testing the template ASAP... Updates are free as always.

I'm also launching a brand new template shortly, with many more features.

It was due out in August, but I have decided it was best to wait for v4.4.4.

Re: X-Cart Smart Template v4.4.x
 

@PhilJ

How long after 4.4.4 do you think you will release the new template?

Chomping at the bit....

Re: X-Cart Smart Template v4.4.x
 

I'm moving into v4.4.4 from an old 4.0.19 site. Does this template not work with the newest release? Anyone tried it yet? I'm looking to purchase and get this site going. Remote Starter season is about to hit and this is when my site comes alive with business.
