    Im sure its just a change of code but I am not that cluey.

     

    Much appreciated.

  2. Hello Jon (If you are still about)

     

    Ive done all of the above except for the width of my picture, Why because it wont reach all the way across at 800 and looks silly. Im sure there is a way better but Im not that cluey. As for the extra spaces or no spaces I was missing. You must have bionic eye site. Better than mine.

    Since you are a newbie, you wouldnt have the code for

     

    Editing /home/wwwshop/public_html/admin/includes/boxes/tools.php...

     

    Ive had so many problems with my connection that I wasnt quick enough to save it. Im only missing two lines.

     

    Thank you kindly

     

    :)

  5. Hello Jon,

     

    I worked it out, took away the the flowered background ( heee heee it wasnt a good look) and added a nice white painted one. The top part is no longer "blank" I now have a picture reaching all the way across.

     

    Have a look! www.shoppinginurpjs.com

     

    Now all I need to do is add more pages to my "Information" box (where the contact us, conditions ect... are) I would like to add a links page in this box. (but dont know how, its starting to get a bit technical for me, I saw a add a page mod in contributions but my pc didnt like it, dont know if a bug was attached but my virus program wouldnt allow it) Is there a way just to add a heading "Links" to this box by code?

     

    I would also like to add my address down the bottom of my home page where the copy right notice is, (At the moment it is on my contact us page) Im obviously doing something wrong because every time I try it comes out to big and to the left of the page.

     

    I would also like to move the Cart, reviews, specials, language, currency boxes on the home page over to the right hand side, at the moment they are down the bottom left and dont look right there and not easily viewable. I would like them to display the same as they do when you click on a catagory or product.

     

    I was going to post about these else where in the forum but not sure what section.

     

    Can you help me please,

     

    Much appreciated. :)

     

    Thank You

  6. Thank You, I knew it would only take two clicks. I have a big white space at the top now, how do I fill that in with a banner? If I wanted the background to go all the way would I just write repeat or something in the code? I would like to know how to fill it in with a plain coloured banner though, cant have my site looking like a flower bed threw up on it. :)

     

    Much appreciated

  7. Hello,

     

    Ive been searching the forum looking for an answer but cant find one unless I have missed it. I was looking through my files thinking I would come across one called background.gif. :blink: but couldnt find it.

     

    Can someone please tell me where I find this and what it is called so I can upload my own background. Im sure its only as simple as 2 clicks of the mouse. Im lost :-"

     

    Much appreciated.

  8. Hello girlzridetwo,

     

    Thanks for the reply, much appreciated. It may help someone else. What was happening was when you clicked paypal as your prefered payment option then continue it took you to paypal, then it asked you to enter your own payment details for eg: you bought say $49.99 worth of goods in my store then say $6.00 postage, total amount $55.99. this was not showing up. The customer had to remember what they had spent including postage and enter this information themselves.

     

    It seems to me that oscommerce is mod happy, I did not want to install a mod as there were to many to choose from and not all the descriptions of the mods are clear as to what exactly that mod does (well to a newbie like me anyway, still learning the lingo) I also found by installing a mod meant I would directly be responsible for the personal details given (express checkout mod) I did not want to store this information. There had to be a way of fixing this without installing a mod but by just changing or adding the code.

     

    Luckly for me I had a very nice and very helpful person contact me with a code fix. It worked like a dream. :) My customers no longer need to enter there own payment total. It all shows up in the paypal invoice now. "No mod required"

     

    The problem, and fix is in the admin/paypal_ipn_php file.

     

    if (!in_array($my_currency, array('AUD', 'CAD', 'EUR', 'GBP', 'JPY', 'USD'))) {

    $my_currency = 'USD';

     

    Check your Admin control panel - and see what your currency symbol is set too -

     

    if (!in_array($my_currency, array('AUD', 'CAD', 'EUR', 'GBP', 'JPY', 'USD'))) {

    $my_currency = 'USD';

     

    Leave "$my_currency = 'USD'; - it has to be USD.

     

    Make sure your currency in the control panel is using the symbol "AUD" - as well make sure your paypal is set to that as well.

     

    In my case I had it set to AU instead of AUD so the information wasn't passing across, a simple fix without having to jump into installing mods. Which being new I find a bit daunting and scarey. If I new a little more I would be able to check the coding before deciding whether or not a mod is needed. In this case it wasnt. Thank god, cause really Im clueless when it comes to these things.

     

    It sounds like you have a busy road ahead of you, I hope all goes well and Im glad someone knows what their talking about because I dont :blink: so its a bit hard to explain myself and expect people to know what Im talking about but I'll get there, its all a learning experience, trial and error.

     

    As for posting in general, I thought I was in the payment section, didnt realise this was the general :blush:

     

    See, cluless I am.

     

    Once again thank you :thumbsup:

  10. Hello,

     

    I have Oscommerce Cart 2.2-MS2

     

    My web address is www.shoppinginurpjs.com (if this helps)

     

    I'm new, so If anyone can help, simple instruction's would be appreciated. I noticed another thread with same issue but there were no responses.

     

    When using Paypal as payment, my cart takes you to the paypal invoice but says "Enter Payment Details" I do not want the customer to have to worry about entering those details. As they could enter anything. :blink: I would like it if those details automatically appeared.

     

    How does one fix this?

     

    Help would be appreciated.

     

    Thanks

    People are looking in here, no answers here.

     

    There must be someone whom can help. PLEASE Im in desprate need of fixing this.

  11. Hello,

     

    There are so many paypal mods that I dont know which one I am needing. At the moment when using paypal payment option it says "Enter Payment Information" All I want to do is change this to display the payments and contents of what the customer has ordered so the customer does not have to fill anything out.

     

    Could someone Please Help.

     

    Thanks

  12. Hello,

     

    I to would like to know, I have BestAddress HTML Editor 2004. It seems Dreamweaver is the go but It all cost money to upgrade and although a lot of the templates are very nice, it can be expensive as well as others having the same template as you do. It would be much appreciated if someone could help out with some basic steps in a crash course for developing your own template.

     

    Bump :)
