I am in very early stages and trying to change the colors on my site. I was able to change part of the info boxes (I think that is what they were called)...anyway, I changed them, but only part of them changed. If you can look at my site, for instance, the "categories, manufacturers...." title bars are brown except for the left corner. Did I do something wrong that can be fixed or can someone please tell me where I can find the left corner code so I can change it too? I have searched everywhere and can't find anything :(

 

Here is the site...

 

https://host408.ipowerweb.com/~aromatic/osc...7e92d0995e12a56

 

BTW, will all the extra garbage stuff like host info go away when I get my own SSL?

 

Thanks a bunch!!

The corners are actually images so you will need to edit them with your favorite image editor and change the colors match. You should be able to find them in your catalog/images/infobox/ folder.

 

 

??? if you are talking about in the url, yes you should see your own info once you get a ssl cert with your own name.

 

It looks like you are running your whole site in ssl, you really should not be and since you are on a shared cert your hosting company will probably not be happy.

The Knowledge Base is a wonderful thing.

Do you have a problem? Have you checked out Common Problems?

There are many very useful osC Contributions

Are you having trouble with a installed contribution? Have you checked out the support thread found Here

BACKUP BACKUP BACKUP!!! You did backup, right??

Thank you very much for the reply! I will try to find an image :)

 

Yes, that is exactly what I was asking about. I am glad to know it will go away.

 

Oops! I didn't realize I had the whole thing in SSL...Could you possibly tell me how to change it so that just the important/confidential stuff is in SSL?

You probably have set the HTTP server to the HTTPS url in the configure. You have to make the changes in the includes/configure.php

 

e.g.

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'https://host408.ipowerweb.com/yoursite.com');

should be

('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.yoursite.com');

 

 

Make sure you change all the HTTP_XXX

 

Make a backup first...

Thank you very much!! I think that worked. If I click on my ctalog link it takes me to a page that only has HTTP in the address instead of HTTPS :)

Hi Sabrina,

 

I was reading your post and have to commend you for getting osCommerce up and working at ipower. I moved a site from there because their support was so awful. My wife and I are also at the early stages of developing a store. Yours is coming along great. We'll be watching to see if you come up with any great innovations. Feel free to look at ours as it develops as well. www.highlandspa.com/store . We're kind of stuck at the moment with making the connection through our gateway/ Verisign to process credit cards. Can't seem to get much help on that one. No response to posts. It must be a tough area. Best of luck with your site. Give a shout if you see anything on ours that we might help you with.

Thanks! I haven't had any trouble with their support yet. But, when I had my store set up a couple of years ago through ValueWeb (at 49.99/month) :o , they couldn't offer much help with the Miva Merchant shopping cart. So, I am not expecting much from Ipower...not yet anyway LOL

 

It would be wonderful if we could help each other out! I am extending the same offer to you. If you see anything I may have done on mine that you are unsure of how to do, just shoot a PM...Love your main picture on your site, BTW!! :)
