Category & Product pages too wide

Help! I'm new (of course) and have somehow made my category and product pages too wide for the screen. I also had Welcome which is gone now and the pages defaulted to "heading_title." Any help fixing these problems would be greatly appreciated! I've looked everywhere I know where to look (which isn't much) and am going nuts! My site is www.jennymacs.com

 

Thanks!

I do not see anything unusual with the width of your page, your view source for the page has the table width set for 100% and that is the way it displays on my monitor. I am not seeing any type of horizontal scrolling, so it looks fine in that regard.

 

for your HEADING_TITLE issue, it appears you may have lost the second half of your includes/languages/english/index.php file. I notice on your table headings you are displaying the constant name and not the value you would hope to display. Perhaps you lost something when you changed the main page text, so you'll want to check for that.

 

Be well,

Thanks Tina. The first couple of pages are the right width. It's the category pages themselves that are too wide. And I need a bit more direction about the HEADING_TITLE issue. All in all, I've messed up way too much. If I go to my backup, can I just start over again?

It appears your 'TEXT_MAIN' is ok. Directly under that definition should be something similiar to this:

 

define('TABLE_HEADING_NEW_PRODUCTS', 'New Products For %s');
define('TABLE_HEADING_UPCOMING_PRODUCTS', 'Upcoming Products');
define('TABLE_HEADING_DATE_EXPECTED', 'Date Expected');

if ( ($category_depth == 'products') || (isset($HTTP_GET_VARS['manufacturers_id'])) ) {
 define('HEADING_TITLE', 'Let\'s See What We Have Here');
 define('TABLE_HEADING_IMAGE', '');
 define('TABLE_HEADING_MODEL', 'Model');
 define('TABLE_HEADING_PRODUCTS', 'Product Name');
 define('TABLE_HEADING_MANUFACTURER', 'Manufacturer');
 define('TABLE_HEADING_QUANTITY', 'Quantity');
 define('TABLE_HEADING_PRICE', 'Price');
 define('TABLE_HEADING_WEIGHT', 'Weight');
 define('TABLE_HEADING_BUY_NOW', 'Buy Now');
 define('TEXT_NO_PRODUCTS', 'There are no products to list in this category.');
 define('TEXT_NO_PRODUCTS2', 'There is no product available from this manufacturer.');
 define('TEXT_NUMBER_OF_PRODUCTS', 'Number of Products: ');
 define('TEXT_SHOW', '<b>Show:</b>');
 define('TEXT_BUY', 'Buy 1 \'');
 define('TEXT_NOW', '\' now');
 define('TEXT_ALL_CATEGORIES', 'All Categories');
 define('TEXT_ALL_MANUFACTURERS', 'All Manufacturers');
} elseif ($category_depth == 'top') {
 define('HEADING_TITLE', 'What\'s New Here?');
} elseif ($category_depth == 'nested') {
 define('HEADING_TITLE', 'Categories');
}

 

Do make a backup and compare what you have and what may be missing. If all fails yes you may need to go to the original file and start your changes over again.

Tina, thanks - I truly appreciate your help! I think that might be just what I was looking for.......now gotta put a pot of java on or I'll never make it! (And thank goodness for Monster drinks)! Take care.

You're welcome. I went back and glanced over your product pages. There is a little bit of a horizontal scroll on my monitor, however looking at the page source nothing immediately jumped out at me. Unfortunately I cannot afford the caffeine injection tonight lol
