Basic Design Pack Support

Excellent contrib!

 

It saves a lot of time removing the cartonish icos.

 

I have a question?

 

After I installed the contribution the table_background_XXX.gif icons where removed but I still see the place holders for the images.

 

I'd like to do one of two things:

 

1. Change the images and be able to resize them (at the moment they are fixed to 40px x 40px I don't know where)

 

Please see http://www.techcity.yakidoo.com/

 

2. Remove the place holders from the page

Thanks in advance.

 

Size is set in your admin under configuration >> images

 

you can remove the code for images in specific files by modifying them..ie for the mentioned one in login.php

i cant find the code to set the column width

 

thanks

 

 

In includes/application_top.php this is the code:

 

// customization for the design layout

define('BOX_WIDTH', 125); // how wide the boxes should be in pixels (default: 125)

I have a problem with On the fly auto thumbnailer part of this contrib. When activating this function the small category gif images, those that vhere changed to transgifs, does not show up properly. Just a big box with an error message inside.

I have tried different html_output files with the same result. I have also tried with the seperate "On the fly...." contribution but the result is the same.

I use the 2.2ms2-060817 release and I don' want to have CSS buttons.

You can try to use th old thumbnailer in BDP 2.1 , but if you do check that the http headers from your site is correct after its installed.

 

To try just use the html_output.php from the BDP 2.1 pack.

Which one should I use, there are many. I do want thumnails but no CSS buttons.

[Flotec]

I tried with html_output-no-cssbuttons. The problem dissapered but so did the thumbnails. I also tried with the standard html_output in the BDP 2.1 but the result where the same.

Try anothe thumbnailer, or even better remove the calles for those gifs in the individual .php files

[Flotec]

Am I the only one that has these problem? Does it have something to do with how the server is set up or what can be the problem?

[Flotec]

What I did is the following if someone has the same problem as I had. I copied back the old table_background_xxx images. Sure they are ugly but now the thumbnailing works.

[westlife007]

thanks, the BDPv2.1 html_output works great on my site!

:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[♥toyicebear]

For those who want to use images, but think the original clip-art looks to cartoonish..have a look at these alternatives...

 

XP style default images

 

Silver style default images

 

Silver V2 default images

Sorry I have another question. In the install guide it says I will be able to set the outside colour in the stylesheet - I assume this is the area outside of the table where do I do that?

 

Also how can I get my text in the boxes to be White as the background is blue and the text on the main section of the page be blue as it has a white back ground.

 

I can change it but it changes it for both places.

 

Thanks

I realise my first question never posted!

 

My other issue is this.

 

From the Catalog page I want to add two drop down boxes:

 

one will list all categories only no sub categories

the next will list sub categories based on the category selected

I'd also quite like to be able to do the same for manufacturer.

 

it would then take me to a list of those products

 

 

It would be great if I could do the same on each Category listing page - ie select the category on the left then have the drop down boxes for sub-category on the product listing page

 

 

Basically the products shown should be queried on the selection and only those that apply should be seen

 

Is this possible at all, I'm sure it must be.

 

I would then get rid of sub categories form the Categories box - not sure how yet but I'll give it a go.

 

Essentially something like this:

Thanks alot, I've really been trying to work this out for months.

I am reffering to the tep_image_submit buttons. eg. quick_find, continue, sign in

 

I'm guessing that I have to edit the html_output pages. I've tried editing out the code begin CSS buttons everywhere but I actually lose my right colum when I add // infront of the lines.

ie.

////

// The HTML form submit button wrapper function

// Outputs a button in the selected language

// BEGIN: CSS Buttons Everywhere

//function tep_image_submit($image, $value = '-AltValue-', $parameters = '') {

// global $language;

// $css_submit = '<input type="submit" class="cssButton" value="' . tep_output_string($value) . '" />';

// return $css_submit;

//}

// END: CSS Buttons Everywhere

 

////

// Output a function button in the selected language

// BEGIN: CSS Buttons Everywhere

//function tep_image_button($image, $value = '-AltValue-', $parameters = '') {

// global $language;

// $image = '<div class="cssButton">�' . tep_output_string($value) . '�</div>';

// return $image;

//}

// END: CSS Buttons Everywhere

 

Am I missing something?? Do I need to remove something else in the css??

 

 

Do not just remove the code, you will also have to add back the code for graphic buttons.

 

Or just use one of the other included html_output files , there is also one included without css buttons.

outside - BODY

 

inside - fixcenter

 

The boxes have individual classes where text and looks can be adjusted.

 

But links color are set globaly in the stylesheet, so all links will be the same color.

 

If you wish to have different link colors in the boxes you will have to create an implement them in the boxes and in the stylesheet.

There are many available catgeories versions, with and without sub-categories, with drop downs etc. in the contributions section

Sorry to be stupid but I can't work out where to put the outside - Body bit

 

I've tried:

 

BODY {
 text-align: center;
 background: #ffffff;
 color: #000033;
 margin: 0px;
 outside: #000033;
}

 

and

 

.outside {
background: #000033;

}

That's exactly what I want to do but again I just don't know how to do it.

 

sorry

Oh and I also tried:

 

.fixcenter {
 width: 778px;
 border: solid; border-width: 1px;
 background: #ffffff;
 outside: #000033;
 color: #000033;
 margin: auto;
 margin-top: 20px;
 text-align: left;
}

 

and

 

.fixcenter {
 width: 778px;
 border: solid; border-width: 1px;
 background: #ffffff;
 body: #000033;
 color: #000033;
 margin: auto;
 margin-top: 20px;
 text-align: left;
}

 

and

 

.fixcenter {
 width: 778px;
 border: solid; border-width: 1px;
 background: #ffffff;
 outside-body: #000033;
 color: #000033;
 margin: auto;
 margin-top: 20px;
 text-align: left;
}

 

I'm clearly having a blond moment and I'm sure this is because I'm working on a bank holiday weekend when I should be out having fun proving that all IT people aren't geeks - but I'd really appreciate some help.

 

Thanks

I figured out the background bit - now just how to implement the different coloured link text in the info boxes..............................

[PJ2006]

Sorry two more questions.

 

I want to remove the sub-categories from the Categories box as this is duplicated by the icons on the main body - I found a contribution "Remove sub-categories in categories box" how ever in the new categories.php file I uploaded with this contribution the code to change is not present so I can't figure out where to do it.

 

Finally and I promise I'll try not to ask any more questions:

 

How do I get rid of the Category image no the main body, I've found a couple of solutions but again can't find the same code.

 

Thanks

If you cant figure out how to do it manualy, simply replace the categories box from BDP with one of the ones without sub-categories from the contributions section.

 

To remove the category icons/images in the center you will need to modify this file: index.php
