mondobongo3 Posted April 21, 2010 Posted April 21, 2010 Earlier I had posted an issue regarding banner. Well, the problem was that the template used was based on old verson of oscommerce. I tried ver2.2 rc2a and here the baner worked nice. My problem now, is how to use the appearence from old one in the new osCommerce version? What files are to be replaced in the new one, but without altering its functionality? For now it's installed on localhost, empty database, nothing to lose. I must finish it in less than 3 days, otherwise I would tried to figure out by myself.

Well, thats maybe still the fastest way, unless you want to go and buy an other template. The template you have is based on an old osCommerce version and (to 99%) done in a way that it is impossible to separate functionality and design. So you would need to upgrade the old version to the new, alot of unnecessary work. Since you have now a new fresh version, what I would do is to install the Simple Template System (STS), very easy installation on a new store. Latest version (4.6) has already some sample templates installed that you can customize easily Or you go and buy an sts template, there are many available. In case you don't like it anymore, you just install an other one, functionality is not touched in any way My community profile | Template system for osCommerce - New: Responsive | Feedback channel
