Re: X-Cart Smart Template v4.4.x
 

Bullfrog, thank you for your post. Webmaster mode is great and have used it quite extensively. But the checkout page seems a little complicated on my part in finding the file to change the page width. With Smart Template I am using Crimson template - looked in common_files, smart_template and the folders and files within.

Re: X-Cart Smart Template v4.4.x
 

PhilJ, thank you for helping me out with the one page check out width. Must say Smart Template is a very nice and clean template... Worked with other templates for x-cart, but this is by far the easiest to work with. The CSS files look very clean and easy to read in comparison to xcart... Or maybe there's no comparison? Thanks again!

Re: X-Cart Smart Template v4.4.x
 

Can someone help me √ please - to find out, if ⌠Product-Title■ (not "dialog-title") inside ⌠New Products■ category can be translated into different language? Thank you.

Trying to change the Nivo slider container for images that are 710x85. At the moment the container is to high in which it is leaving to much blank space. Checked the slider.tpl and css files. By the way this is a great inexpensive template, if you have no plans to hire a designer this is the way to go.

Re: X-Cart Smart Template v4.4.x
 

To change the height for the Nivo slider if using smaller images:



Not sure if I had to change both to 87px for my images but it worked.

I get following php error everyday on store activity report. I'm not sure if this is smart template related. It does not seem to be affecting in placing an order though. Has anyone seen this before and any suggestions to fix it?

PHP errors:
[19-Feb-2011 00:00:12] Warning: include(skin/smart_template/custom/js/switchers/init.php) [function.include]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in .../include/lib/smarty/Smarty.class.php on line 1923

Logo Size. I have attempted to change the size of the logo from the default 480x100 to 450x175 but when I do the logo is partial hidden behind the horizontal category menu. I adjusted the logo size in the desert.css file. Thanks.

Re: X-Cart Smart Template v4.4.x
 

Thanks Phil. I applied the change. It fixed the error. However I'm getting following php error now. This wasn't there before. Are these related? Any suggestion to fix it?

[21-Feb-2011 21:08:52] Warning: preg_match() [function.preg-match]: Unknown modifier 'M' in ../include/adaptives.php on line 98
Many thanks.

Re: X-Cart Smart Template v4.4.x
 

I'm pretty sure that new error you are getting is not related to the template.

Re: X-Cart Smart Template v4.4.x
 

Once you have finished tweaking and testing, in general settings you can enable the JS/CSS speedup tools, which puts all the JS and CSS code into 2 large files, thereby reducing the server requests.

There's plenty of other things you can do... optimise your images so that they are not too large in size, minimise the JS code with a tool like this. Ensure you regularly optimise the database tables etc.

Re: X-Cart Smart Template v4.4.x
 

Hi Phil,



I'm getting following error after applying the fix above. Any suggestions?

Re: X-Cart Smart Template v4.4.x
 

This is in Tools -> General Settings, scroll down to "Preferred checkout module" and select from the drop down list.

Re: X-Cart Smart Template v4.4.x
 

I don't know if you're still having a problem, and I am by far NOT much of a guru on any of the css or xCart business, but you might want to look at the width of your site. If you notice, the background image used on the Smart Template has a big white space in the middle. My best guess is that perhaps you have the width too narrow and it's showing that white space. You might be able to make it a little wider or adjust the image itself. Thought I would reply and see if maybe we can take some work off Phil. It's worth a shot. :wink:

Re: X-Cart Smart Template v4.4.x
 

Hi Phil,
I am sort of bumping this post to you, but not so much to get back at the front of the line but to also ask about your 4.4.2 version and keep my drama all in one place. As I understand, you have a different template for 4.4.2? I have looked and am not seeing it, and afraid to upgrade my version without knowing. Should I put a ticket in on your site?


This is still present but I think I should add a little detail to include that the catalog generates, it just displays with no style sheet - just a white page with links.


Still same issue


Okay- this is NOT related to the Royal Template, as I changed my site to Blood and it's still happening. Then I changed my other site to Royal and it's working. I am quite confused.... H-E-L-P!!! S-O-S!


This one is still present too but at the bottom of the list for worries


Try as I may to change this I couldn't figure it out, but somehow my sister got rid of it. She doesn't know what she did but it's not a problem right now. Am hoping to upgrade to 4.4.2 soon, so it may be present once I do.


When I post this in the threads to you I sincerely mean it. I know you released a great template and you are reaching a point of needing side-rails on your backside for people getting on you. You are extremely talented and good at what you do but you are human, and I appreciate everything you have done for all of us.


Forget it! If there's anyway around it I will NEVER use xPayments, it's not worth the hassle. :-#


As stated earlier, this is sincere and I recommend your template to everyone that I can. :D/

************************************************** *********

Finally, I am getting this error (you know the IE error at the bottom of the page):


Thank You Phil!

Re: X-Cart Smart Template v4.4.x
 

thanks for your reply
i think that i may have had the wrong setting in xcart? (Number of columns to display the product list in). This white line only appeared in Opera though and only for 3 days both looking at my site and the demo site on various pc's that i have access to.
all is fine now.
Super template.

Re: X-Cart Smart Template v4.4.x
 

Cool! Glad you got it working. Wonder what would have caused that to happen.

I found a nice site that you can get free screenshots of your site to see how it looks in different browsers. Have found it to be very handy... browsershots.org.

=)

Re: X-Cart Smart Template v4.4.x
 

Perhaps you can go in your admin panel to Tools -> Languages, and search the text you are wanting to change. If it is a label tag you can change it right there.

Re: X-Cart Smart Template v4.4.x
 

Thanks Scrapbook Supplies. I don▓t think Phil▓s New Products supports more than one language except for the dialog label┘ At this point I just removed it.

Re: X-Cart Smart Template v4.4.x
 

Hi Phil,

I thought if i untick :"Use selected featured products type on homepage only"

will show FP on category pages?

or if there is no products will display the standard FP on Cat pages?

But it's not doing it on this

http://www.gloryweddingcreations.com.au/home.php?cat=274


"Only uses pager or carousel featured products on homepage - uses standard featured products view on category pages."

Anyway i want to show FP in category pages?

Re: X-Cart Smart Template v4.4.x
 

Hi there Philmystro Flex

I have a quick question:
How do stop having my vertical left menu categories duplicating onto the horizontal black bar (the same bar where the search box is located it)
I just want these categories on the vertical bar and not the horizontal one.

Apologies if this has been covered already, I've read through this forum before for another problem and honestly am not going to read through 31 plus pages again lol

Re: X-Cart Smart Template v4.4.x
 

You can disable the horizontal category menu in the smart template settings, which then replaces them with a custom horizontal menu.

Or, to remove altogether, in skin/smart_template/custom/header.tpl

Replace...
With...
(or whatever you want to put in its place)

Re: X-Cart Smart Template v4.4.x

Re: X-Cart Smart Template v4.4.x
 

Thank you for that. Must have missed it because I sure did do a search and it came up with nothing.

Can some one help me pls?

Re: X-Cart Smart Template v4.4.x
 

Asela, in the smart template settings, have you unchecked...

"Use selected featured products type on homepage only"

See the demo...

Re: X-Cart Smart Template v4.4.x
 

Hi Phil,

Yes, i did that but not showing the FP?

Thanks

Re: X-Cart Smart Template v4.4.x
 

I love the smart template! I also really love the developer license. Phil answered several questions I had during my first setup and answered them quickly. I am very impressed with the level of service. The smart template is a great template at a great price with great service - 100% recommended! If you are wondering if this one is worth a try.. absolutely.

Re: X-Cart Smart Template v4.4.x
 

Yes, That's what i want but didn't work? which template look or why ?

Re: X-Cart Smart Template v4.4.x
 

Now I'm stuck!
I need to resize the left column (I'm using the 2 column left template) and increase the main column to fill the page, ideally remove the left colum entirly, but reducing to a few pixels would do, I have played and got in a right mess with the css, any ideas?

Thanks
Tony

Re: X-Cart Smart Template v4.4.x
 

skin/smart_template/custom/css/layout_2col_left.css

The default left column width is 200px, so just change the 200px values to whatever new width.

Re: X-Cart Smart Template v4.4.x
 

Phil,

Would you please check on the following and help with the fix:

1. Special offer: I've moved to the right column, and two pictures are overlapping.
2. New products: has similar problem as the special offer.
also, the new products did not catch the data correctly. I have added new products but they are NOT displaying.
3. Feature products: this was set only display at home page, however, the feature products are showing above the category on one of the categories page, see http://www.petadorn.com/Dog_SweatShirts/


Thanks,

Re: X-Cart Smart Template v4.4.x
 

Hi MythNReality,

1) The special offers section is designed as a wide dialog box, not a narrow menu box, therefore you'll have to tweak the special offers template...

skin/modules/Special_Offers/customer/new_offers_message.tpl

2) New products should be displaying fine, make sure they are actually new products (not clones of old products, or modified demo products).

3) If you don't want the subcat featured products to appear as a carousel etc. ensure you have this option unchecked in the smart template settings...

'Use selected featured products type on homepage only'
