Follow Us Contribution

[Guest]

I have added the Follow Us InfoBox Add-on by Max-terbeck and have found that the box has been placed directly under the box above. (see www.sobaby.com.au/Test/Catalog) I would like a space between these boxes. Can anyone tell me how to fix this?

Probably you need to add a couple of <br> to the line of the box above, just look how it is done for other boxes

 

file includes/column_right.php

This is the inlcudes/column_right.php file where I have add the 'follow us'. Where do I add the <br>? I added it between the 'whats_new' and Folow Us Box BOF and got an error.

 

/* ------------------------------------------------------- */

require(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'whats_new.php');

 

//Follow Us Box BOF

include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'follow_us.php');

//Follow Us Box EOF

?>

I'm sorry, previous post was a mistake.

 

Do you have a link to that addon?

The problem is not in the new "follow us" box. It starts earlier at the "whats new" box.

 

If you look at your source code, you will see that the earlier "manufacturers box" ends like this

<tr>
   <td  class="ie6_png"><img src="images/corner_bottom_left.png" border="0" alt="" width="10" height="10"></td>
   <td  class="infoBox_bottom"><img src="images/spacer.gif" border="0" alt="" width="1" height="1"></td>
   <td  class="ie6_png"><img src="images/corner_bottom_right.png" border="0" alt="" width="10" height="10"></td>
 </tr>
</table>
</td>
 </tr>
</table>
           </td>
         </tr>

 

For the whats new it looks like this

 <tr>
   <td>
	<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">
		<tr>
			<td class="corner3_bottom_left"><img src="images/corner3_bottom_left.gif" border="0" alt="" width="162" height="10"></td>
			<td class="ie6_png"><img src="images/corner3_bottom_right.png" border="0" alt="" width="10" height="10"></td>
		</tr>
	</table></td>
 </tr>
</table>
</td>
 </tr>
</table>
           </td>
         </tr>

The "follow us" end again "correctly"

<tr>
   <td  class="ie6_png"><img src="images/corner_bottom_left.png" border="0" alt="" width="10" height="10"></td>
   <td  class="infoBox_bottom"><img src="images/spacer.gif" border="0" alt="" width="1" height="1"></td>
   <td  class="ie6_png"><img src="images/corner_bottom_right.png" border="0" alt="" width="10" height="10"></td>
 </tr>
</table>
</td>
 </tr>
</table>
</td></tr>

This is also visible directly on the page, you can see that the "whats new" (same as "specials") has not the same bottom as categories, manufacturers and follow us.

 

You need to go to this files (whats new and specials) in the includes/boxes folder and try to make them same as ie categories or follow us.

 

An other point is that this "box adding" all the time and for every single additional link is really not the non plus ultra. You could take the 3 links of the follow us box and put them directly to your footer, no need for a box.

 

Finally, take a look at your site with FF, no background in categories and manufacturers, in safari it looks ok

How can I add it to the footer with no box? Which part do I take out??

Also, our original site works ok with FF, haven't made the corrections with the Test site as yet. Thanks for letting me know though.
