Very nice Paul... I do advocate using sprites, but it's always a good idea to check the 'Net' tab in Firebug to see if you actually get much of a gain in speed or overhead saving, for the work put in

Hi Phil, Thank you so much for telling me about the 'Net' tab! I had not used that before.

My conversion from Ability to reBOOT is going very well and I'm ecstatic with the much more modern look and feel. So far I've been able to include all of my Ability tweaks and keep everything responsive. I still have a lot of work to do but you've organized and simplified everything so much it's a joy to work with!

To all Smart, Ability, and Adapt users:

IMHO I highly recommend all Smart, Ability, and Adapt users upgrade to reBOOT so they can start working on it now. X-Cart v 4.5.6 should be out this Summer and with all the changes Qualiteam has been doing there could be issues with the older templates which are NOT supported past 4.5.5.

These are my own person thoughts.

Paul

Here's a tip for improved source code ordering in '2 column - left' layouts...

skin/reboot/custom/home_2_cols_left.tpl

Replace...

<div class="row-fluid">
<div class="span3">
{include file="customer/bar.tpl"}
</div>
<div class="span9">
{include file="customer/content.tpl"}
</div>
</div>

With...

<div class="row-fluid">
<div class="span9 pull-right">
{include file="customer/content.tpl"}
</div>
<div class="span3 pull-left" style="margin:0">
{include file="customer/bar.tpl"}
</div>
</div>

This ensures that important content is displayed first in mobiles/tablets and generally better for SEO.

Image size 120x160 does not reduce in size it just shows half the image

[PhilJ]

yages, have you tried regenerating the image cache?

You can do so in Tools > Maintenence.

[yages]

regenerating the image cache made no difference

Then please post a ticket so I can view your store.

Hi Phil, Is there a way to make the iframe lightbox responsive?
