Replacing with your logo
 
As easy as this sounds, im having a complicated time. I purchased the "Ice Blue" Template, and i cant seem to replace "Your Company Logo" with my logo. The top part has a flash logo, and in the directions is states uploading your logo, and editing the "head.tpl" file changing each entree with your new logo name. I have done this, and the "Your Company Logo" disapears, but my logo still doesnt show. Anybody help me on this?

Make sure you also type the extension of your logo:

MyLogo.jpg, MyLogo.gif, etc.

Hope this helps.

Hey Lewis, welcome to X-Cart! A couple things...be sure and post your code in code tags (like I did to your post above) to make it easier to read. Also, be sure and add your X-Cart version to your signature. Edit your profile, enter your x-cart version in your signature, enter your password, hit save. Thanks!

As far as your logo issue, note that the logo is actually the BACKGROUND of the table cell. The flash may be overlapping it. I'm not familar with that skin, so I can't tell you exactly what you need to edit.

lbeasley 03-02-2005 12:36 PM
hmmm... i will try to work with it more. Thanks.

zardos 03-02-2005 01:44 PM
Hi lbeasley

Is this not the place to put your logo. Just past half way down.

Code:
<TABLE border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%">
<TR>
<TD width="27"></TD>
<TD>[img]{$ImagesDir}/xlogo.gif[/img]</TD>
<TD valign="top" align="right">
{if $usertype eq "C"}
{include file="customer/top_menu.tpl"}
{/if}

lbeasley 03-03-2005 04:58 AM
no...its a flash file that needs to be replaced. The directions that came with the template says to just find the Flash file name in the "head.tpl" file, and change it to your logo file name. However its more to it then that, because it doesnt work. Maybe i'll figure it out one of these days.

pauldodman 03-03-2005 05:19 AM
I have never used flash for a logo, so I am not 100% sure this is what you need. I seem to recall a similar problem though, and the advice offered was to place the code for the flash movie between
<section> tags.
Sorry if that isn't any help.

To be honest. What i really would like to do is get rid of that entire top flash header. I designed a Top banner last night tha is in .jpg format. However i was having some issues with resolution viewing. It looked ok with 800x600, however when switching to 1024x768 there was a chunck of blue space left behind the banner, and the body of the sight was longer in length then the banner. Any help on fixing this?

lbeasley 03-04-2005 05:06 AM
Come on, dont everyone speak at once! :lol:

balinor 03-04-2005 05:10 AM
Your best bet it going to be opening this thing up in Dreamweaver so you can understand how the cells are set up. Once you figure that out, getting rid of the flash should be easy.

pauldodman 03-04-2005 05:39 AM
I'm not familiar with the actual template either, and that is perhaps why you aren't getting too much exact help. As Balinor says, if you can open up the head template in a proper editor, you may be able to sort it. Otherwise you may need to let us have a look at your work in progress.
You can always PM me the link if you would like me to see what is actually happening.

iIll have to dig dreamweaver up out of my cd stack. Though im an enemy of front page, i tried pulling up in that program, and its still a bit wicked in tht program. Thanks guys i appreciate it. I will be back in touch

lbeasley 03-04-2005 04:00 PM
well, its not showing any images or frames in dream weaver. The file is a tpl file, so im guessing you cannot view any visuals. The View/Design option isnt even active, so i cant select it. All i can do is view in text format.

balinor 03-04-2005 04:02 PM
DW should show the frames...make sure you have the settings correct to allow the table frames to be seen.

pauldodman 03-04-2005 11:43 PM
I don't use Dreamweaver myself, but when I edit templates, (.tpl) in Golive, I change them to html files (.htm) first. Then they are fine to work with. Don't forget to change them back before uploading.
