FrankS12 Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Topic: Contact and About Page Not Showing Content - STS Hi all I've searched this one and not found a solution yet. I've been trying out the STS-latest version and have created my own template, loaded it into the Modules section in the Admin Section and see the home page correctly. If I click on a link to the contact_us.php page it successfully finds and loads the page but none of the code from the page shows in the main area. The page displays identically like the home page. I've read the manual and see that the sts_template.php page has the includes for the header and the footer. I've not included these but don't see any code in them to affect the main area of the page. Can anyone direct me in the right direction here? Thanks, Frank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abu Maryam Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 (edited) I have installed the latest version of STS 4.6 and osc 2.2, and have noted that the STS infoboxes positioned in the central area (where $content tag sits) does not display correctly- The title of the infobox does not appear. Although having checked the other freeoscommerce templates (e.g. http://freeoscommerce.com/demo/?demotemplate=freeoscommerce_009 ) this seems to be a generic problem as the infobox at the bottom should display "New products for..." as the vanilla version of osc does instead a number of products are displayed without a heading. I have spent hours searching this forum and could not find a solution, advice would be much appreciated on how I can get the headings of the central infoboxes to display correctly P.S Infoboxes on right and left display fine. Thanks Edited June 29, 2010 by Abu Maryam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When someone tried to install it manually and then had proplems, they should take the files provided in the contribution and use a good file comparison tool such as Beyond Compare to compare with their manually modified files. This will show you visually where you may have made your mistake. Very fast and very reliable method.

Do you have your configure.php files set correctly for a stable osCommerce installation? 3. What do you see on the catalog side, meaning, are you seeing your old shop prior to installing STS or are you viewing a STS template? 4. What version of osCommerce is your store? 5.

Try uploading all of the STS and modified files again as some FTP programs are known for being unreliable. Anytime you manually install a contribution that also provides the files that need to edited as well, it helps to compare the two to see where things may have gone wrong. Make sure you did not add an extra } at the end of that code segment. It should look like the following: eval('$keys .= ' . $value['set_function'] . "'" . $value['value'] . "', '" . $key .

The error is telling you that you are missing some files or the file that it is looking for is in the wrong folder. The folder structure should me maintained as set in the contribution. For example, you should ftp everything inside of the STS folder, which would be the includes folder and everything in it to your catalog folder of your shop (http://mystore.com/catalog/). Then you need to either FTP everything inside one of the osc version folders (Files for MS2, Files for RC1, or Files for RC2) to your catalog folder of your shop (http://mystore.com/catalog/). Your catalog folder could be called anything from catalog, shop, store, or could be the very root of your domain such as http://mystore.com/.

Maxiimilian Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 Hello! I've a question regarding STS: Is it possible to create a new_products page within STS and modify it to my liking (just like the other pages)? If so, do I have to create any classes or something like that in the STS-files to be able to create a "new_products.php" page in STS? Regards, Maxiimilian.

Yes, you can create a template for this page that will effect everything but the "content" (stuff in the middle). If you wanted to modify the content, you would need to edit the actual new_products.php script.

If you truly feel that you did everything correctly, then it may just be a faulty FTP upload. Try uploading the files again or get a more reliable FTP program. This addon has worked for a ton of users and it wouldn't be in the top downloads if it didn't work for them. In my opinion, STS has got to be one of the easiest contributions to install so focus on the installation instructions and keep trying. Good luck.
