[contribution] STS PLUS v4


Guest

Recommended Posts

I love this contrib but I'm having a problem with popups still.

When I use the stock template everything works fine but on the one I am building, no image pop ups will work. I am sure that I'm missing something so if I could get somebody to look at this I would be so happy. This is a test area that I created to remake my shop, any suggestions are welcome.

I'm using STS Plus to make a distinctive look for my webshop. I've installed some contributions and it's still working fine. But i'm not happy with some of the design elements.

 

I've got 2 main 'problems' so far:

 

1. I don't like the look of the what's new box in the contents part. I've looked for the files which need to be changed to delete this header (and replace it with an image of mine, or delete it totally). I looked for it in new_products.php in the catalog/includes/modules/ directory, and also the whats_new.php file in this directory: catalog/includes/boxes/. After changing some code in these file, the content part didn't change. So it seems that i need a different file to change, but which is this? And what do i need to change(links to contributions?)?

 

This is the current look of the heading:

newarticle.gif

 

2. I want the border in my cartbox deleted. I've got a white borderline now, and it needs to be all black. And there will be an image on top of this too. Below you will find the current design, beneath the future image for the heading. What needs to be changed to accomplish this?

 

current:

infobox.gif

 

future:

shoppingcart.gif

The content of the cart will be below this.

 

I tried to implement the following contribution ( http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,1378 ), but it changed my overall design (only in Firefox). I want to know where I can change this, so that only the concerning headings will be changed. All the other infoboxes will remain unused.

Here is a thread that I started when I was having trouble customizing. I tried to answer my own questions as I found them. I hope it helps!

I have a question about SSL/https.

 

I installed a fresh osc and configured it to use SSL. When I go to https://www.example.com/shop/ and look at browser's page info I can see that two forms have actions with regular http:// (manufacturers and quick_find) and most of the anchors refer to plain http:// locations.

 

Is this osc's problem or can it be fixed in STS+?

I've been able to clear out the header.

Solved it by deleting the following line of code in includes/modules/new_products.php.

 

 

	 new contentBoxHeading($info_box_contents);

 

 

And with the shopping cart it was includes/classes/shopping_cart.php:

 

 new infoBoxHeading($info_box_contents, false, false, tep_href_link(FILENAME_SHOPPING_CART));

 

It even works with with the image headers from this contribution. http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,1378

 

But it took some fine tuning in the html layout to get it all right.

Switch off STS+ and check if problem is same. Update to STS+ last version, a problem with base href has been solved.

thank you for this great contribution

 

I was wondering if you knew how I could link associated products of the same range in the product info page, so you would have the product info then underneath an info box like the New Products for box with products from the same range in.

 

any help info or point in the right direction would be great

 

regards

Danny

How can i call a Site-Bookmark on a template-Site..?

(Hope i explain my question well.. :-" )

 

 

THX 4 Your very well Support!!! :thumbsup:

To Helmi:

 

Look what is the html code of the link to #top. Probably your authoring software refers the link to sts_template.html#top or something like that, so the template opens. The link must be created dynamically (new tag) to refer to the actual page index.php#top.

 

To drs101:

You need to add a new contribution for that. For example contribution 1415 allows linking products to each others. If you use templates for product info page, you'll have to create a new tag for this new infobox, otherwise just install the X-ref contrib into product_info.php and it will work.

Hello

 

I installed STS over a working store ...

 

and now my download contribution won't work.

 

There is a pulldown for it - instead of a box for the filename and a browse button.

 

See:

http://3cgraphics.com/store/product_info.p...2&products_id=2

 

(you have to scroll all the way down - as the layout isn't right either).

 

How is STS+4 different as far as the product attributes go ? WIll this version help me to get the download option to work again?

 

 

STS has realllly been driving me crazy as it's still dependant on tables - is the new version more flexible ?

 

Thanks

Has anyone had any luck customising the design of login.php, using STS Plus? I'm currently trying to hack my way through the code in login.php to see how I could create custom STS Plus tempalte tags to produce the forms.

 

The main problem I've found is separating out the code from the design, as ever with OSc. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Hi,

 

I have installed STS Plus and it works fine apart from one thing popup images! I have tried everything I can think of and nothing works. The popup image does not come up at all when I click on it. Can you please help me. I have this problem with all version of the STS and STS Plus

 

Thanks in advance

 

I am having the same problem, even after upgrading to STS Plus 4.07 (started with STS Plus 4.06 on a clean osC install). None of the popup windows are working (Images, Search Help, etc.).

 

The error dialog that is displayed reports:

 

Line: 1
Char: 1
Error: Object Expected
Code: 0
URL: *edited*

Awesome contrib. Installed it (upgraded from STS v3) and have 2 of the same issues I was having. I can't get the tell a friend link to work and I'm having issues installing the Wishlist V3 contrib. I want to have the tell a friend box to "disappear" and use a pic. link to tell a friend about products. I've done away with the boxes on the right side of the cart all together. I wanted to move the link next to the smaller picture on the product_info.php page.

 

The wishlist contrib. is also causing a little grief. I wanted to do the same thing. Add a pic. link on the product_info.php page next to the smaller picture. I believe the code to do it is this:

 

<td align="center"><?php echo tep_image_submit('button_wishlist.gif', 'Add to Wishlist', 'name="wishlist" value="wishlist"'); ?></td>

 

I know that php was not supported with the STS v3 template system but I've seen it done before. So I'm not sure how to do it. Any help is greatly appreciated.

 

Thanx in advance for the help.

So what am I doing wrong??? Please take a look at the difference between the two links:

 

http://1090.tv/catalog/product_info.php?cP...4&products_id=1

http://1090.tv/catalog/index.php

 

As you can see, the product_info.php page is setup the way I want it but the index page is not. I have created the template files index.php.html, product_info.php.html, and the sts_template.html file has been changed.

 

According to the flow chart in the manual if the file index.php.html exists, STS won't use the default template (sts_template.html). So I'm not to sure why it's not formatting things properly. Any thoughts on what to check or possibly what I'm doing wrong?

Has anyone customised the product/category listing using STS/STS Plus? I'm currently creating a fairly radical redesign using STS Plus but am struggling to find out where to edit the OSCommerce code to produce a category/product listing that'd fit in with my design.

You need $headcontent# in the header of your template, it will add the javascript code needed for the popup. You can find an example in one of the template delivered with the contribution.

The product listing is generated here: catalog\includes\modules\product_listing.php and unfortunately it cannot be changed by template, you'll have to modify the php code.
