Hello, Can you please tell me how I can add >> before each category listing...for example.... >>Processors I do not want the >> to be part of the hyperlink however. Thanks!!

edit categories.tpl and add your html code where ive shown

Modify this file in your skin1 dir:

customer/categories.tpl

This line (line 10 for me):


Would be changed to:

Thanks!!
 

Thanks a bunch man! Awesome...Ok now Maybe I can get a few other simple questions out of the way here.....Ok, here's one, when i goto my page and click a link, it will pop up a blank webpage for like 1 second, and that webpage is the same color as the default x-cart, like a minella color....How can I prevent that from popping up or change that color? Also, I'm gonna need some help with creating extra pages of my own text and html, On my gray gay going across the top of the page, I have what will be links eventually...the colors are the same, so you can't see the text, Can you please explain in detail how I would go about creating my own page to add in the middle? Thanks? I am aware it is in the FAQ's, but I can't make sense of that, and I don't wanna screw up my cart. Thanks!

Update!
 

Ok, scratch that one question about the page background, i did that!!

Last question of the night!
 

Ok, here is my last question before I goto bed. If you goto my webpage... http://www.digitaladdition.net/xcart/customer/cart.php and look at the left menu item headings...ie: Categories...Help...You will see there is a little bit of black before each of my headings...how do I get rid of that? Thanks!

Hi ArlyDude

The offending piece of code is in the single/home.tpl template:
<table border=0 width=100% cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 align="center">
<tr>
<td class=TableLeft width=6 rowspan=2></td>
<td class=TableLeft width=150 valign=top>
{if $login eq "" }

If you remove this line the gap disappears.

Sorry, forgot to say change this in customer/home.tpl aswell.

It appears that Arlydude has figured out a part that I havent ;)

I used your instructions FunkyDunk and removed that line.. there still appears to be some padding however, where do you remove the cell padding?

Heres my post from earlier with the cellpadding in red

Thanks!!
 

Thanks guys! You are awesome! This is coming along great! Here is another quick question, haha, i'm sure it's easy, but I can't find the template! How Can I change the default "This is a demo.." text??? I forget where that is located?

Everything like that is located in the languages.... So you need to go to the admin section, punch in the text you are looking to change for the language you are looking to change, and shuffle between the categories until you see it come up, and change it.

??
 

I don't understand what everyone is saying by goto language..is that the language.php? which will take me to the option to change languages? How does changing a language have anything to do with editing text?

MY BAD!
 

HAHA, HELLO, SORRY, I FEEL SO DUMB :oops: I FOUND IT, I THINK IT SHOULD BE SET UP BETTER THOUGH, A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS PROBLEM!

Login to the admin interface on your site.

Under the "administration" menu item, click on languages.

From the language drop down menu (defaults to: select one) -- Choose English.

In the apply filter box, typt the word "demo" (without quotes) in.

Click go.

Change the "select topic" drop down to reflect the different topics that might contain the text you need to change.

All the different "texts" should show up that contain your filter criteria... Change the value, and click apply changes.

Voila.

Another question...
 

Ok, how come whenever I explicitly assign a color to a font...
example...

<meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="en-us">
<p align=justify>
<font color="#000000">Advanced Search</font></p>

it will lose it's mouse over effect? How can I prevent this from happening?

Hi,

You'll need to edit your css (style sheet) file. I had the same problem -- I like the underline...

Just as a quick tip, not sure if its been mentioned ;)

I tend to use &raquo; or &laquo; for my little menu arrows >> and <<

They tend to come out nicer than using the arrows.

hope this is useful
