Basic Design Pack Support

[zaxxon]

thanks for this contrib, i like the looks and the concept.

 

there is a contribution called dynamenu ((link to its forum) and link to its download page.

its very simple and uses css, a new box include, and a few of its own functions to generate flyout menues - either in tree like fashion vertical or horizontal...any ways.. y am i telling you this? because when i install it on a fresh install of oscommerce it works fantastic, but after i copy basic design pack over my fresh installation and then install that contribution(or in reverse order) the menues do not work.

the only files that are the same are footer and header in catalog/includes.

in the footer all i need to add is a one liner at the end of the file b4 the closing ?>

// Output the footer for Dynamenu for osCommerce
echo $GLOBALS['dmfooter'];

 

and in header i just output the menu like so

   <?php include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'dm_categories.php'); ?>

 

or if you lookhere, on my header.php on line 62 is the complete header page

 

can any one help me figure out why is this menu not working after BDP is installed ?

even better, can any one help me get it to work ?

 

thanks,

zaxxon

All the files in the /boxes/ folder has been changed......noone of the changes is security related......

 

The categories used in the pack are very different from the standard one..and yes its safe to use.

 

Well good to hear, but to me, adding (int) at the beginning of vars being used for SQL queries is a security measure.

 

Maybe it never was possible to inject anything in those, but you'll admin, the (int) is a restriction that prevent such injections ;)

 

Then, this package is just great :D

 

I love it, even though I would love to see smarty used here :D

 

Anyway oscomerce rocks, this community rocks, I am happy to have chosen this solution :D

Hey folks...

 

I am an uber newb when it comes to this stuff and attempted the install of the basic design pack. To my untrained eye, it appears to not have done anything.

 

If you have a look at my site it might help www.technologydirectcanada.com

 

The cartoony graphics are still there and those grey edges on all the boxes :(

 

I used an FTP program to copy the files over and it seemed to go OK.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

had a look..it looks like you have not overwritten or modified the includes/header.php and includes/footer.php from the package.

Had a look..it looks like you have changed to use a purchased template instead of the pack.

an url would help to see what might be the mather...

 

But from what you describe it looks like you did not have an unmodified store to start with....

Hi, first post here :)

 

Thanks for the great contrib. I am redoing my site at the moment and I just installed the contrib and it seems to work very well.

 

I have a couple of quick questions though, hopefully someone will be able to help.

 

Q1. I would like the site to have a different size depending on the screen resolution or client window size. I added the following code and it seems to work (kind of)

 

.fixcenter {

max-width : 955px;

width: expression(document.body.clientWidth > 955? "955px": "auto"); margin: 0 auto;

...

...

 

 

The problem I am having when I do this is that when I make the IE window smaller and then maximise the Category Items jump out of the box and are left on the far left hand side of the screen. As soon as I move over them, they jump back into the category box. Its really weird.

 

 

Q2. I notice that the width (when using a fixed width) seems to be different on firefox and IE 7 (RC1) is this usual? Is there anyway around it?

 

Cheers..

You have to check if those and the BDP have some common files which has been modified..if so you need to merge the changes..

The butoon texts can be found in the main text files

 

ie. for english

 

includes/languages/englis.php

 

for danish

 

includes/languages/danish.php

 

and so on...

Have not tried it this way:

 

.fixcenter {

max-width : 955px;

width: expression(document.body.clientWidth > 955? "955px": "auto"); margin: 0 auto;

 

But will give it a try when times permits...

 

On the other hand i have tried it togeter with Amandas BR&R and it works greate....

I will give that a go although looking at the code on how to install it; it does not seem as easy as doing it like the way I was trying.

 

Do you know why the width when using fixed width of 800 would be different on firefox and internet explorer? I would have thought if you set it to 800px then it should be 800px?

 

cheers

Hi,

 

one small question:

 

i am using XAMPP to check my installation localy.

 

what i do not understand is this:

 

everytime i call a page from the catalog frontend, there is poping up some dos shell windows. it has to do with the on the fly thumbnailing feature, which i do like.

 

but it takes a lot more time to show the site, although i have a powerfull computer. if these pictures would be created the first time, i can understand that logically.

 

but this happens EVERY time i load the side. it happens even if i call the contact side where no picture at all is shown. (i excluded the columns right and left.) only on the backend it doesnt show up...

 

so im concerned if this happens to if i upload my shop in the net, and there i have only a shared server, loading page time will be very slow....

 

thanks for your help!

[TheRenegade]

Actually i have the same thing.

its totally lame. having the 20 or so pop up windows (dos shell)

 

why is this? how can i fix this so its not as.. well stupid in that reguard..

 

i am using Xampp to modify my page locally as well.

Hi, great contrib. I just set up your version 1.8 and I am mostly happy with the results. HOWEVER, there seems to be glitch of sorts. Please have a look at my site here

 

The problem is the overhanging "new products".

 

Your advice would be very appreciated.
