General Support / Changing title of "SPECIALSSee Products On Sale"
« on: September 14, 2015, 01:12:08 AM »
I'd like to change the homepage text where it says "SPECIALS See Products On Sale".

I have "Special" in the block section but it is non-editable.  If I click on the eyeball it shows "special.tpl" but if I go to that on the server, the text is not in that file.

Thanks!

Unfortunately, we can not understand the problem of your phrase " decided to bring it up in IE (Windows 7) to see how it displayed and it is not good."
Please,  take the trouble to at least make a screenshot.

P.S. just fyi: regarding browser statistics http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_stats.asp

Thanks, unfortunately a screen shot wasn't going to really help.  The product images were huge compared to what is normally displayed.  They were display at least full screen width.  They were uploaded at 640x480 so you can imagine how pixelated they were at full screen.  You would have probably said "WTF am I even looking at?"

W3schools gave me errors, mostly regarding the usage of the "&" symbol and after some more reading I realize it basically comes down to IE8's issue of HTML compatibility.

Anyway, I used netrenderer to see what the site looked like in IE 9 and above.  It looked fine.  Product images were presented correctly.

There appears to be a way to change the DOCTYPE in html to force the pages to render properly for IE8 and below but I was unable to locate the correct html file on my server to make the change.

I'm not sure if I want to mess around with changing the code too much anyway.

UPDATE>

I used this to check my website:  https://validator.w3.org/

This is one  of a multitude of & errors:

Error: & did not start a character reference. (& probably should have been escaped as &.)
At line 141, column 148
account/account&session_id=90e

Is it worth trying to correct this in HTML or would I just be spinning my wheels?

Thanks!

UPDATE:

Well, it looks fine in full screen but if I minimize the window the image get placed in different positions (as I expected).  So, back to the drawing board.

Any suggestions as to how to do this?

Thanks.

Hello everyone,

I searched the forum before posting this but didn't find a fix.

When I view my site in Chrome (my default browser) it is looking fine.  I decided to bring it up in IE (Windows 7) to see how it displayed and it is not good.

It's more acceptable looking on my phone.  Haven't tested it on any other browsers yet.

I don't use IE but many people do so I need it to look decent.

Thanks.

UPDATE:

This is what I have now in the block:

<div class="otherddetailspart">
<div class="innerclass payment">
<h2><strong>Easy Payment!</strong></h2>
<strong>Payment Gatway support</strong></div>
<span style="position:absolute;top:3.5%;left:43%;"><img src="/image/ssl_image.png" style="width: 80px; height: 60px;" /></span></div>

Bellow, is what it looks like on the computer screen.  Trying to figure out the %'s for positioning took a bit and when I look at it on my phone it's not correct.

Thanks, I got it to display but I need negative VSPACE.  The image is pasted to the bottom and if I try to change VSPACE using /vspace it doesn't make a difference.  I want it centered vertically.

This is the code:

<div class="otherddetailspart">
<div class="innerclass payment">
<h2><strong>Easy Payment!<img alt="" src="/image/ssl_image.png" style="margin-right: 40px; margin-left: 40px; float: right; width: 120px; height: 80px;" /></strong></h2>
Payment Gatway support</div>
</div>

This is the result:

Hello everyone,

I want to add an image of an SSL Certificate to my home page.  I am using the standard template.  I want the SSL image to be to the right of the area that has the following block info:

<div class="otherddetailspart">
<div class="innerclass payment">
<h2><strong>Easy Payment!</strong></h2>
Payment Gatway support</div>
</div>


Something like this:

Hello everyone,

I read this forum post (http://forum.abantecart.com/index.php?topic=232.0) which is quite old so I'm posting a new one with an additional question:

I figured out how to do it by editing the product.tpl file and also add the weight section.

It works fine except:

I have "oz" written in the code but sometimes I have a product that weighs(for example) 1 pound, 4 ounces.  How can I manage that without putting 20oz?

Thanks

I like the way the way your site looks with it partially narrowed down (the one you prefer).  I'm using Abantecart 1.2.2 and the site I'm working on is wide like the one you don't like but it's been that way since I started (version 1.2.2).

I would also like to try  the style you prefer but since reading your original post I tried to find the appropriate setting and haven't figured it out.

Did you upgrade your version of Abantecart for this to happen?

Please let us know if/how you do get it back to the way you like.

Voice Control - I see it in the settings area.  It's turned on.  How does it work?  It says it requires Chrome 25 or above, I have Version 41.0.2272.89.

Thanks

Extension Support / Problem when trying to use "Contact" form
« on: July 25, 2015, 02:49:14 PM »

Hi everyone,

I seemed to have fixed other problems on my site but now I have this:

When I click "contact" at the bottom of the screen (I'm still using the default template) I can fill in the form but when I click Submit I get "The page you requested cannot be found"

My processing controller is "default email" and my success page is "forms_manager/default_email/success".


There is nothing in the error log.


EDIT:  I just finished an online chat session with namecheap tech support.   They changed Mod Security settings on the server which took care of  "The page you requested cannot be found" error but form submission is not ending up in my email box.  " They tried everything.  I gave them the passwords for my cpanel and my abantecart website for access.  After 3 hours (yes, really),  They said it is a problem with the settings in abantecart.

They and me could not fix it.


***UPDATE:  I figured out what was wrong.  A person has to actually create register an account on their abantecart website and be logged in like a real customer in order to submit a form.  Perhaps an update or patch can make it so that it would give an error to inform the person that they can't submit the form without creating an account first.
