Mort-lemur Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Trying to get to grips with the BS System as used on OSC... I understand that (Most of) the boxes and content are called up as modules with their own template and language files But what Im struggling to find is the file which controlls their position on a page - as an examle if I wanted to move the sidebars further down the page, or if I wanted the page header (H1) to be lower down or further over - should I be looking to one of the .css files to accomplish this? any tips or pointers (in simple terms) would be appreciated. Thanks :) Now running on a fully modded, Mobile Friendly 2.3.4 Store with the Excellent MTS installed - See my profile for the mods installed ..... So much thanks for all the help given along the way by forum members. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burt Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Can you explain more what you mean by "move the sidebars further down the page". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

motorcity Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Does a popup shipping estimator make sense in 2.3.4BS ??? I'm working on the estimator for MVS and so far so good, but the popup isn't responsive at all. Any ideas of where I can get a BS popup that I can compare to? I'm more a code breaker than writer so I usually start from someone elses work, completely destroy it, then by some luck get something I can use.

♥Tsimi Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 @@motorcity As far I know, there is already a shipping estimator that "pops up" in the shopping cart. http://www.oscommerce.com/forums/topic/396632-shipping-quote-in-cart-2334-support-thread/ But if you want to give it a try yourself and create a different one then maybe you should have a look at this http://getbootstrap.com/javascript/#modals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♥Tsimi Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Regarding this topic; many people ask the same or similar questions over and over again. Especially the grid stuff. I would highly recommend to bookmark the following pages and read them from time to time as they contain most of the answers that you seek. This is the official BS website. I put the link that goes directly to the css stuff. Up top you have links to Components and Javascript stuff. (*All that stuff in there is responsive! Even the popups and what not...) http://getbootstrap.com/css/ Also interesting to read regarding the grid system, containers, rows, the gutter/space between the rows and so on.... Check here The Font Awesome site that shows you all icons and samples and mixes of icons possible http://fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/ Also interesting to read various tips & tricks part 1 Check here and various tips & tricks part 2 Check here There are lot more helpful sites out there but this should cover the basics. osC BS uses a lot modular stuff and therefore it is sometimes difficult to look for certain code pieces in the files. Here you should use good tools to work with like Notepad++ (not to mistaken with the normal Notepad) that tool contains a "check all files in a certain folder" search function. Additional to that use the web tools from the chrome browser or firebug or web tools in Firefox. These will help you to "see" codes from certain areas or spots.
