Hi again Carrie, I had some more time to try and play around with it, but i couldn't get it to work. I am using version 3.58. Any other suggestions? Thanks

[BCSE]

Post your updated code again. I tried this in I think 3.5.5 (maybe 6).

Silly question, but you are replacing the dialog.tpl and skin1.css in skin1 directory, not in skin1_original, right?

The old version is probably still in the templates_c directory. Delete everything in there.

When I'm developing I always go in to to Smarty.Class.PHP and set "var $force_compile = true;" which forces the templates_c directory to be rebuilt every time.

Hi Carrie, that is a good question...I feel like an idiot since I'm not sure what the difference is. lol But I think i'm replacing them in the right directories. They are the ones that appear immediately in front of me when I click on "Edit Templates" within the Admin section. Hope that makes sense.

Here is the updated code for my dialog.tpl

{* $Id: dialog.tpl,v 1.15 2003/11/14 07:28:30 svowl Exp $ *}
<TABLE border=0 cellPadding=0 cellSpacing=0 {$extra}>
<TR> 
<TD height=15 {if $title eq $lng.lbl_featured_products } class=NewDialogTitle {else} class=DialogTitle {/if}background="{$ImagesDir}/dialog_bg_n.gif" valign=bottom>{$title}</TD>
</TR>
<TR><TD class=DialogBorder><TABLE border=0 cellPadding=10 cellSpacing=1 width="100%">
<TR><TD class=DialogBox>{$content}

</TD></TR>
</TABLE></TD></TR>
</TABLE>

Here is a section of the skin1.css

.CategoriesList {
	FONT-SIZE: 12px; FONT-WEIGHT: bold;
}

.NewDialogTitle { 
   BACKGROUND-COLOR: #000000; COLOR: #ff0000; FONT: bold 15px; 
} 

.DialogBox {
	BACKGROUND-COLOR: #FFFFFF;
}

Thanks again!

You must be missing something simple because I copied and pasted the code you gave me into my stuff and it works on my end. And you editing them directly in the Admin should be changing the correct files.

Have you tried clearing your template cache? You can do this on the summary page in the Admin side of the store.

Also make sure this lable still exists in your languages area:
lbl_featured_products

I checked and the lbl_featured_products does exist. I haven't tried clearing the template cache yet...I will try that. Is there any harm in doing so and will I lose any necessary data? Thanks again!

[BCSE]

I don't think there is any harm. They just will have to recompile again upon the next view. It's just to help speed up viewing of X-cart.

I usually don't have to do that when I change things around, but some claim they do.

Carrie

Post, or PM me your store address if that doesn't work and maybe I can see what's wrong.

Carrie

[Ryano]

I cleared the Cache, but still nothing. I just sent you a pm.

[BCSE]

I looked at your site....Let me see featured.tpl now

Please..

Carrie
