matrix2223 Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Since this is for the design aspect, I thought I would mention a good starting place for background images, images, and buttons. This could give shop owners a good start point for design. http://www.sxc.hu Most of all the images are royalty free.

oxwivi Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Thanks for the link! I don't know enough web programming languages to make modifications in the source myself, so the addon is going to be a real help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he, like myself, doesn't know web programming, won't be able to tell what exactly we can do in the files there. In the first place, are those blue bars images or something made with code? Is there anywhere we can find sort of theme packs for osC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♥toyicebear Posted January 4, 2012 Author Share Posted January 4, 2012 It seems that some are to lazy to read the info themselves and need it spoon feed, so here it is... You can find information, download new themes or create your own themes at www.jqueryui.com And that is actually from the very first post in this topic!

♥14steve14 Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Also search the add ons section applicable for 2.3.1 and look for jquery. REMEMBER BACKUP, BACKUP AND BACKUP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brgsstm Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Wow, nice welcome. I actually asked, "Is there an easy way......"! I apologise that I harbour very little knowledge compared to you, but frankly, as far as I am concerned, that is not easy!! Now, if someone is willing to offer any help on how to use jquery to achieve what I am looking for then I thankyou in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♥geoffreywalton Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Yes there is an easy way, unfortunatly you have to invest the time to read, learn and apply. The info is all there in the links provided. The alternative is to pay someone to do it for you. This thread goes through all the steps to get you started.

oxwivi Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Again, we don't know how this JQuery thing works or how we apply it. The first post did mention we can create themes for osC at JQuery website, but how do I start making a theme meant for osC? Or will any JQuery theme will work? If any JQ themes will do, what exactly does JQuery cover? In any case, this thread doesn't seem to be for noobs, thanks for all the help so far.

brgsstm Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Thanks Geoffrey, As OXWIVI say's, I have hit a wall after downloading jquery, thanks for the help. I do not have the base knowledge or time to invest it seems so I will look for a paid alternative. Thanks, Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♥14steve14 Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 OSC already includes jquery. All you have to do is to replace a few files and change one or two bits of text.

brgsstm Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Thankyou Steve, I edited /ext/jquery/ui/redmond/images/ui-bg_gloss-wave_55_5c9ccc_500x100.png using paint to the colour I wanted and it has worked :) I now have a faint blue line round the boxes which I would like to get rid of but I have made progress.

brgsstm Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 I edited the line: .ui-widget-header { border: 1px solid #000000; background: #5c9ccc url(images/ui-bg_gloss-wave_55_5c9ccc_500x100.png) 50% 50% repeat-x; color: #ffffff; font-weight: bold; } in: /ext/jquery/ui/redmond/jquery-ui-1.8.6.css to get a black border also.

♥toyicebear Posted January 5, 2012 Author Share Posted January 5, 2012 You can edit includes/header.php and/or stylesheet.css , but oscommerce 2.31 is using the grid960 system as default so a "header" image can not be wider than the site. (unless you set a body background image or change the "structure" of the oscommerce div layout ). If you just want it higher you can set the header height higher in stylesheet.css and if its the "logo" then you will also need to change the height/width settings for the logo image in includes/header.php Basics for osC 2.2 Design - Basics for Design V2.3+ - Seo & Sef Url's - Meta Tags for Your osC Shop - Steps to prevent Fraud... - MS3 and Team News... - SEO, Meta Tags, SEF Urls and osCommerce - Commercial Support Inquiries - OSC 2.3+ How To To see what more i can do for you check out my profile [click here] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 I'm simply trying to get my banner to the bottom of the right column. All info I've found is for 2.2 I'm running 2.3.1 so therefor I don't have column_right(left). I'm supposed to be able to use template_bottom(I think-and have again lost but will find), When I added the banner code to the bottom of, template_bottom, nothing changed. added: <?php if ($banner = tep_banner_exists('dynamic', 'link1')){?> <?php echo tep_display_banner('static', $banner); ?> <?php } prior to the last <?

♥kymation Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Boxes designed for 2.2 will not work in your 2.3.1 store. Try the Banner Box addon for 2.3.1. Regards Jim See my profile for a list of my addons and ways to get support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 I did look at that Jim, I don't have anything that will open a gzip. I was hoping it was a simple code placement. I guess I'll see what I can find to open that file. Thanks SS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
