If its not working I can only assume it's to do with where your editing your code. Double check it. Below is a vital bit of information regarding installations of add ons etc on Ability, and I quote.

"Now, the main template repository is skin/common_files
Any files in skin/ability, will override those in /skin/common_files"

Basically any files that need to be edited in the skin/common_files/ directory will actually need to be edited will be in skin/ability/

When you click any of the red car images in the "Promotions" or "Special Offers" boxes in the left column, is something suppose to happen? It changes to a magnifying glass on image mouseover, but when you click it, it does nothing. Is this suppose to work this way, just curious?

Or do we code our own links in each image?

They're just there for demo purposes, you can use them or remove them.

Thanks, I just wasn't sure if anything special happened like they opened up a lightbox image gallery or something

As a sidenote Phil, did you get my PM regarding the custom mod?

I did yes, looks easy enough, I'll be in touch.

Phil,

Is the Ability Template compatible with the Smarty 3 upgrade that Xcart just released.

There's no reason why not, but be aware of what you are getting into first, as it will probably interfere with your mods, due to deprecated Smarty tags etc.

Also, people are reporting it's slower than v2.x.

If it ain't broke...

Quick tip to disable IE8 standards mode...

skin/common_files/customer/meta.tpl

Replace...

 <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=8" />

With...

 <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge,chrome=1">

...which should enable rounded corners and other CSS3 effects in IE9 etc.

Not sure why QT are still doing this, even in v4.5.0 !

The Quick View feature on my xcart v4.4.5 development site is showing a market price of 0.00 but I don't want to show the market/list price there if I have the market price set in the product backend to zero. The product details page doesn't show the market price when the product backend has that field set to empty/zero but the market price does still show, at zero, in Quick View.

It's seems clear that quick_view.tpl must be edited to alter this.

What is the best code change to correct this minor flaw, in a way that the market price will still show if it's not set at zero?

/ability/custom/addons/quick_view/quick_view.tpl

Below seems like the relevant bit of code to change from that template but how should it best be changed? Presumably the first smarty tag has to be altered. Can someone guide me on that?

{if $product.list_price}<div class='grid_6'><b>{$lng.lbl_market_price}:</b></div><div class='grid_6'>{$config.General.currency_symbol}{$ product.list_price}</div><div class='clearing'></div>{/if}

Try the following. If price is zero I removed the "add to cart" link also. Changes are shown in red. If you copy and paste and the quick view does not work then insert the changes into the original line of code. Do not add any spaces or it won't work.

Replace:

var html = $("{/literal}<h2>{$product.product}</h2><div class='container_12'><div class='grid_4'><img src='image.php?type=T&amp;id={$product.productid}' alt='{$product.product}' /></div><div class='grid_8'><p>{$product.descr|truncate:9999:'. ..':true|strip|strip_tags:true|replace:'"':''}</p>{if $config.Appearance.show_in_stock eq 'Y'}<div class='grid_6'><b>{$lng.lbl_in_stock}:</b></div><div class='grid_6'>{if $product.avail gt 0}{$lng.txt_items_available|substitute:'items':$pr oduct.avail}{else}{$lng.lbl_no_items_available}{/if}</div><div class='clearing'></div>{/if}<div class='grid_6'><b>{$lng.lbl_price}:</b></div><div class='grid_6'><span style='color:red;font-weight:bold;font-size:14px'>{$config.General.currency_symbol}{$prod uct.taxed_price}</span></div><div class='clearing'></div><br /><p><a class='add_link' href='cart.php?mode=add&amp;productid={$product.pr oductid}&amp;amount=1'>{$lng.lbl_add_to_cart}</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a class='arrow_link' href='product.php?productid={$product.productid}'> {$lng.lbl_quick_view_product}</a></p></div><div class='clearing'></div></div>{literal}");

With This:

var html = $("{/literal}<h2>{$product.product}</h2><div class='container_12'><div class='grid_4'><img src='image.php?type=T&amp;id={$product.productid}' alt='{$product.product}' /></div><div class='grid_8'><p>{$product.descr|truncate:9999:'. ..':true|strip|strip_tags:true|replace:'"':''}</p>{if $config.Appearance.show_in_stock eq 'Y'}<div class='grid_6'><b>{$lng.lbl_in_stock}:</b></div><div class='grid_6'>{if $product.avail gt 0}{$lng.txt_items_available|substitute:'items':$pr oduct.avail}{else}{$lng.lbl_no_items_available}{/if}</div><div class='clearing'></div>{/if}<div class='grid_6'><b>{$lng.lbl_price}:</b></div><div class='grid_6'>{if $product.taxed_price gt 0}<span style='color:red;font-weight:bold;font-size:14px'>{$config.General.currency_symbol}{$prod uct.taxed_price}</span>{/if}</div><div class='clearing'></div><br /><p>{if $product.taxed_price gt 0}<a class='add_link' href='cart.php?mode=add&amp;productid={$product.pr oductid}&amp;amount=1'>{$lng.lbl_add_to_cart}</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;{/if}<a class='arrow_link' href='product.php?productid={$product.productid}'> {$lng.lbl_quick_view_product}</a></p></div><div class='clearing'></div></div>{literal}");
