[Addon} Modular Front Page

[leathernecksswflcom 0]

This add-on is just what I am looking for, the only problem is I can not open that file type. Any suggestions?

[♥geoffreywalton 139]

I would suggest you find an open source program that will open that file type.

 

Google will do it.

 

Cheers

Hi Jim

 

Thanks for replying.

 

I have took on your advice and from what I can see my tags and files are in the right place.

I have checked my header section too and all files are fine.

Can you spot anything I am doing wrong?

How many banners do you have assigned to the rotator? What are the banner rotator module settings?

 

Regards

Jim

[karen789 0]

Only your default 4 banners.

 

The settings are default too.

Fade time 500,

hold time 4000,

banner order - banner_id,

banner rotator group - rotator,

banner rotator max banners 4.

 

Regards

Hello, I've run the module with me on is very well done.

I only have the problem that in the New Products module of title: New Products for January will be displayed in one language only. Can I set it somewhere that it displays the title of the language file? I have the page in English, German and Greek.

OK, not quite as important, but would be nice

Hi Jim

 

Thanks again for the reply.

Can you just clarify what you mean. I get what your saying but I'm not sure where I should be looking for where the banners should be assigned. Please advise.

 

Regards

[♥kymation 631]

Banners are assigned in the Banner Manager tool. Please refer to the osCommerce instructions section on the Banner Manager for help.

Hi Jim,

 

I have enabled the scroller module and checked the installation several times.

 

Problem that I have on my 2.3.1 development site is that the scroller does not scroll at all, either in manual or auto.

 

Many Thanks

[♥kymation 631]

Check all of your Javascript and stylesheet tags in the head section of the page using View Source. I can't do any more without looking at the site.

 

Regards

Jim

Hi Jim, the tags all look as they should to me as follows:

 

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="ext/960gs/960_24_col.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="stylesheet.css" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="ext/modules/front_page/scroller/jquery.smoothDivScroll-1.1-min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
   $(function() {
  $("div#scroller").smoothDivScroll({

 

Would you like me to pm the site url to you ?

 

Thanks

[♥kymation 631]

You can PM or email it to me.

It looks like you're using Modular Front Page and Theme Switcher 1.3. Remove Theme Switcher 1.3 and replace it with Theme Switcher 1.1.

Thanks Jim, That worked a treat

[karen789 0]

Is there a way to separate paragraphs in the "Main text" area like a break, so it doesn't just bulk every paragraph into one text block.

[♥kymation 631]

You can use HTML to format your text. If you want a WYSIWYG editor, install the CKEditor Addon. The Text Main module will recognize and use CKEditor without any further modification.

I have copied all the files, front page shows up in modules, but none of the features work, my front page is still the old one. Please help?

[♥kymation 631]

You haven't made the changes to catalog/index.php.

 

Regards

Jim

[leathernecksswflcom 0]

Which changes are those?

[♥kymation 631]

This is covered in the instructions. There is a copy of catalog/index.php included in the distribution package for Modular Front Page. You can use that file or make the changes to your file using the included file as a model.

Hello , thank you for your contrib first of all, i've installed it and i find it useful.

But there is a little problem and i would like to ask you if there is something i can do about it.

It is the textarea for the front page main text, i use ckeditor, so it complain with the function stored into db

but whenever i try to edit the contents, well the textarea is void and it does not contain the previous text.

i've already tried to solve it by myself, but i cannot doit without change the tep_draw_textarea.

Anyone with same problem?

Any idea? was i clear enough?

 

Thank you

any help is appreciated

[♥kymation 631]

Use your database management tool to check the database. Is the text there after you save it?

 

Also, did you click the Save button or the icon in ckeditor when you saved the text?

 

Regards

Jim
