yes,  it is nice.  A great showcase of what can be done with the Abantecart.

Big improvement over old site IMO.  I noticed on old site you had bid form,  the new Version 1.2 soon to be out  has an enhancement for adding forms might be useful to you in the near future.

Thanks for letting us have a look.

We had the bid form but never actually used it or had a need it. It was kind of a "just in case" feature that the previous person put on it.

Adding forms, however, is a nice addition! I had to create my own form and I attached it to the site as "content". http://www.archmetalsfl.com/ramp

If it is in the works for the next release I will just wait on it 

I would like to hightlight the current category page that I am on instead of HOME always being highlighted. any suggestions?

Here is our site that I have been working on (on and off) for the past year. I would go months without touching it do to us being slammed with work (not a bad thing at all).

www.archmetalsfl.com

The site is almost done, just gotta add a few more things, and get pricing for products and we are off and running.


Our old site looked, well, old. www.architecturalmetalsinc.com

I modified the header.tpl file to read as such. Anything in red is what I added. You can see it in action at archmetalsfl.com

<div class="headerstrip_blocks">

                  <div class="pull-left ml10"><?php echo ${$children_blocks[0]}; ?></div>

                  <div class="pull-left"><?php echo ${$children_blocks[1]}; ?></div>

                  <div class="pull-left">
                     <?php if ($this->customer->isLogged()) {   ?>                     
                     <?php echo ${$children_blocks[2]}; ?>
                  <?php } else {   ?>
                  <div class="navbar" id="topnav">
                      <div class="navbar-inner">
                     <ul id="main_menu_top" class="nav main_menu">
                     <li  data-id="menu_login"  class="dropdown hover"><a  class="top menu_login"  href="http://www.archmetalsfl.com/index.php?rt=account/login" ><span class="menu_text">Login</span></a></li>                  
                     </ul>
                     </div>
                     </div>
                  <?php } ?>                  
                  </div>

Well I figured it out. It may not be the best way to do it, but I got it done.

You can use be below condition in header.tpl file

Code Select Expand


if (!$this->customer->isLogged()) {
...
}


Thanks for the response. I have used this to remove the cart beneath the top menu, however the top menu is displayed as ($children_blocks[2]) not sure how to pick apart what I want to show when not logged in.

Got it fixed. In admin backend I had to go to Design -> Menu and in the links for Login and Logout I had to add "www" to the address.

Tried a different computer that has never accessed the site, still the same.

I tested Firefox, still the same result.

Chrome.

I have tested the personal demo site as well and it works fine

When it takes me to the logout page where I click continue, it actually shows like I am logged off, but even if I click any other links it will then show that I am still logged in.

Yes, I have refreshed, cleared cache/cookies, cleared cache in admin backend....nothing.

Ok, so I just realized that when I click the Logout button in the header it takes me to the account logout page. When I click continue it then takes me back to the home page but I am still logged in. I can keep clicking the Logout button and follow the same loop time after time after time.

If I click Log Off in the footer it takes me to the same account logout page, but when I click continue it takes me back to the home page and I am actually logged off this time. The same goes for the Log Off link on the Account page.

Any suggestions? I have reset all of the .tpl and .php files back to default yet still nothing.

Ok, this may be quite complicated. If someone is not logged in, I would like to hide the entire top menu except for login. I would also like to hide the cart just below the top menu. One other thing is featured items.

If someone is then logged in, all of these would reappear.

I am not afraid of changing code as I have changed some already. Just can't find the right files/code to implement.
