♥toyicebear Posted January 21, 2011 Author Share Posted January 21, 2011 I have tried everything to change the font in the categories box to no avail. What do I need to change? Thank you. Its in the stylesheet, the infobox classes , but be aware that changing the fonts there would change the font for all the boxes.. You can ofcourse modify the box itself and add in some new css classes to the links so you can style just those. Or simply choose another category box from the add-ons section which have more "customization" possibilities buildt in.

I had tried soooo many different CSS styles to get the links to change and nothing worked. I finally found the right combination though. Thanks again.

hughesca Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 You would want to download the add-on to your computer. Contained within the file will be instructions explaining how to install it. Some are as easy as an upload and click of a few buttons. Others are quite involved. You'll want to try and pay attention to the version of OSC you are using and that the add-on supports it.

CTU Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 The look of osCommerce is fairly easy to change...it usually only requires the change of no more than 5 files.. 1. includes/header.php 2. includes/footer.php 3. includes/left_column.php 4. includes/right_column.php 5. Stylesheet.css Have fun... I took a look at it, but could not find as to where I can change the fonts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrmike Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Can anyone tell me how to link a Category link directly to the Product Page in 2.3.1 ? (ie: bypass the category product listing ) for instance I have 4 categories. Of the 4 categories 2 contain multiple items, and so the product listing is needed . But the other 2 have only one item, so the product listing is redundant and just means the visitor has to click twice to get to the same item. I find if I just add as a product without a category in admin, it doesnt list it in the links. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shawnpmackey Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 I am trying to modify the look of my client's store. He wants the page to be wider and a little bigger. I noticed in the very first post on this thread that it says there only needs to be modifications to five files which are 1. includes/header.php 2. includes/footer.php 3. includes/left_column.php 4. includes/right_column.php 5. Stylesheet.css however, I do not have a left_colum.php file or a right _column.php file in the includes directory. Have these been renamed to something else in the 2.3.1 version of os commerce?I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boffinboy Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 I have inherited a OSC 2.3 site and been asked to make some changes to design. Is there any way I can tell what contribs have been installed... will they be listed anywhere? I can see Magic Zoom Plus and Header Tags SEO have by looking at Configuration in the admin panel, but can't explain, for instance why the stylesheet.css file is in a folder called css along with several others, instead of the root folder. I would just like to be able to get an understanding of what changes have been made beyond the vanilla install. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♥toyicebear Posted October 18, 2012 Author Share Posted October 18, 2012 There is no easy "overview" , you will have to go over the code and compare it to a "vanilla" install.

♥kymation Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 The stylesheet in a separate folder usually means you have a template installed. Check those files to see if there is a comment at the top giving the template information. Regards Jim See my profile for a list of my addons and ways to get support.

boffinboy Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Oh dear, then I am relying on the previous designer to have adequately put notes in the files he adjusted. Slim hope. This all sounds a terribly arcane way of doing things... I confess I am used to wordpress sites with a plug-in architecture that you can activate/deactivate plugins/themes with a single click. I don't suppose there is super-addon or contribution that does this? Any helpful advice welcomed. I have tried to add themeswitcher on a clone of the site, but my timing seems to be off as I don't think it works with the latest jquery-ui. Anyway I got as far as having lots of agreeable green ticks in the admin module but it didn't actually seem to do anything when I loaded a new theme, so I assume I missed something major. Back to my original point; there is no (simple) way to be sure what has been added/tweaked previously, or to undo it if it breaks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bebory Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Hello First use of new osCommerce in years! I am used to changing design by editing the stye sheets. I have modified the main css as well as the one in ui. Everything is fine except the buttons for Cart Contents, Check Out, My Account, etc. Can someone please point me in the right direction. Thanks!

♥toyicebear Posted December 17, 2012 Author Share Posted December 17, 2012 You can access them via your hosting control panels file-manger OR preferably by downloading/uploading them via FTP ( using something like filezilla, filezilla-project.org ) and editing the files using a text/php editor.

mitisilk Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 I see how to change the colors in the boxes. But where do I go to find the code for different colors? Say change from green to a pale blue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
