romerdude Posted October 29, 2005 Share Posted October 29, 2005 I had read that using CoolMenu with STS is an issue, however I have also read in some post that users have got coolmenu to work with STS- but they do not say how. One user said he would even create a contrib specifically for coolmenu and STS but I was unable to find it. Can anyone point me to where I might find out the details of getting the two to work together? Many man kisses will be given. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 30, 2005 Share Posted October 30, 2005 (edited) Has anyone successfully installed STS on store with "multi-store" contribution? I tried but this error came up on my site : Template file doesn't exist: []Can't open Template file: []Warning: fread(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /home/nadashop/public_html/mainshop/includes/sts_display_output.php on line 178 Warning: fclose(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /home/nadashop/public_html/mainshop/includes/sts_display_output.php on line 179 Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required '' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/nadashop/public_html/mainshop/includes/sts_display_output.php on line 198 Edited October 30, 2005 by martmax Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fredrik.r Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 Yes, that's it meaning that you can use the same template for both languages. You don't have to name them in any special way... the default sts templates that come along with the contrib. will do.You just have to change the image names as the examples I posted before: yourenglishimage1.gif yourswedishimage4.gif ... and so on. That's all. Ok, thanks. However, it would be great to use a template for each langauge (at least in some parts of the store). I really miss that feature..

JohnnyVegas Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 In have the pre beta release 2.01 running. Had it for some time now. I am editing the products page. The only issue I see is the $addtocartbutton. The button shows fine but it does nothing while clicked. The $reviewbutton also has an issue. It shows the button but is not clickable. What is the issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 Got one question, I am using the latest STS version and I am editing the different pages fine with product_info.php_cPath=22, no problems there. but now I have a question, this is of course only effecting items within one categories. The layout of the first page when clicking on the category still lists the items in a list with price and all the usual stuff. Is it also possible to edit this page separately?? any input would be greatly appreciated... Espen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kihlbom Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 Hi there, I'm pretty new to osCommerce. I installed it and also installed STS so I can easily change the look of my shop. But when I run the shop, after a clean installation including STS it already gives me an error. I guess in the index.php I have installed osCommerce without STS before and it ran error free. I included a screenshot of the error box, maybe somebody could help me.. Would be ace! Grtz Chris Piece of code from index.php: <?php /* $Id: index.php,v 1.1 2003/06/11 17:37:59 hpdl Exp $ osCommerce, Open Source E-Commerce Solutions http://www.oscommerce.com Copyright (c) 2003 osCommerce Released under the GNU General Public License */ require('includes/application_top.php'); // the following cPath references come from application_top.php $category_depth = 'top'; if (isset($cPath) && tep_not_null($cPath)) { $categories_products_query = tep_db_query("select count(*) as total from " .

pecheney Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 I posted this in another forum and almost got some help. I am VERY frutrated with simply trying to modify the $content varibale's output. Look at this page: http://www.lulakate.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=21 My goal is taht when you are on this page, http://www.lulakate.com/catalog/index.php , you can click on an image or text, to go into a category, such as Coats! When you click on coats, you go to this page: http://www.lulakate.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=21 I am TRYING to make this page be JUST a list of products. I cannot for the life of me remove the "Lulakate Catalog" text. I have uploaded a 1x1 shim gif to hold teh catgory image space. I am getting awful spacing issues in the middle of teh page and all the products are listed way down the page!! I have laid the page out using STS and tried it using t he sts_template.html and the index.php.html methods. The problems seems to be that the only was I can figure out how to lay out a list of all the products for a category is to insert $content into a template. Whenever I use the variable $content I get an awful spacing issue. I have looked in catalog>index.php extensively, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to remove the "LulaKate Catalog" text or the 1x1 image that is invisibke so i can have JUST MY PRODUCTS listed. :-) Also i need to format the "Product Name+" "Price" and "Buy NOw" verbiage that is down there, too. It is ALL in the $content variable.... Is teh $content variabe dynamically defined in the catalog>index.php file? I am afraid to muck with it as I feel I am missing some very obvious way to display my products by category. If you click on a product you will see I am not a cokmplete moroon and have the page laid out more or less how I want. The catalog index page i can figure out using the STS template "index.php_0.html" but to modify the $content variable I feel like I am about to give birth. Any help is greatly appreciated. I have been looking for 5 days honestly and am not lazily looking for help I promise! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 3, 2005 Share Posted November 3, 2005 I hope this is the best place for this query... I've installed the latest version of STS, which BTW looks like it will simplify my web dev a whole lot - so a million thanks. So, STS appears to be working fine - I can create a new html template and it works - however the changes I make in stylesheet.css don't materialise. (I wasn't sure where the stylesheet.css that came with STS was supposed to be placed, so i just replaced the original in the CATALOG dir.) Essentially I'm trying to change the font and font size of all text that appears on my web site - and I understood the best way to go about this was to manipulate the stylesheet.css In the stylesheet all I've I've done so far is change the font size e.g. 12px to 8px - but nothing happens. Any help is really appreciated. Thanks in advance LCS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pecheney Posted November 3, 2005 Share Posted November 3, 2005 I am not a master, but I THINK you need to manipulate the stylesheet in the "mysite" folder inside the sts template folder you created when installing the STS templatye contrib. I am KIND of guessing, but i THINK the stylesheet you modified is being overwritten by the STS template stylesheet and that is why you are not seeing t he changes. Go to catalog>includes>sts_templates>mysite>stylesheet.css and manipulate THAT .css and see what happens! If that doesn;t work post back up so somebody more experienced can help. I am in the process of giving birth to my STS OSC site right now and learning about 5 seconds ahead of you! Dig the forum! I hope this is the best place for this query...

mental_cube Posted November 3, 2005 Share Posted November 3, 2005 Hi Brian Are you able to offer any advice on using more than I STS template? I have a good understanding of using the 'sts_template.html' I have installed the QUICK VERSION for 3.00 Beta: and it is running smoothly, but I am trying to set up a category specific template as per the user instructions. Example: index.php_22.html However, the pages for that category do not use the template. Furthermore, is it possible to create a template ONLY for the home page? regards mc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leathel Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 mental_cube, Try using index.php_0.html for a home page template. The index.php_22.html sure looks like it should work as long as the Category ID is 22. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fredrik.r Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 (edited) How do I make a separate template for (for example) policy.php.. i would then like to have sts_templates/policy.html...

avail1now Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 ok sts_template.html controls the outer shell of the online store, the header, the fotter, and right & left column. How do I control how the content pages look? especifically, how do I customize the layout and styling of content box for: the store front specific category pages policy shipping log in/new accounts etc. thx,deano Quote cheers, Bridgette & Deano my contributions: tableless CSS template login form for STSresources: effective searching knowledge base how to: sandbox with Paypal IPN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leathel Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 All files will be located in the sts_templates folder. the store front: index.php_0.html specific category pages :index.php_22.html <--- Category ID =22. Change of course. If it is a php page that is default to osCommerce you should be able to do like the following in the sts_templates folder. shipping: shipping.php.html Shopping car: shopping_cart.php.html If for some reason you need different product info pages you can do such: product_info.php_40.html <--- specific to an item with ID of 40 or product_info.php_c25.html <---- specific product info page for all items in a category with and ID of 25. if you want to create pages that are not default to osc I found this from a post, but saved it because I use it very often. many there are a few techniques though... what I've done, mind you while using STS template (which makes this much easier because you just remove the content from the page, but it still has loaded all the application_top files etc), is to take a simple page, like conditions strip out all the code that displays stuff the actual "conditions" language text. first, I would find the line of code, somewhere near the top... require(DIR_WS_LANGUAGES . $language . '/' . FILENAME_CONDITIONS); now change it to something related to the page you want to add.. say: require(DIR_WS_LANGUAGES . $language . '/' . FILENAME_DANCE_FEVER); save it as 'dance_fever.php' (this should be in the main catalog directory BTW) now, go into include>languages>(your language)>conditions.php copy all the code, and rename it to "dance_fever.php" go into the new "dance_fever.php" (in languages, not the one in main catalog) file and add or change whatever text calls you want to make. ok, now go into includes>filenames.php add a line, anywhere you want really that says this: define('FILENAME_DANCE_FEVER', 'dance_fever.php'); thats pretty much it, now when you go to store.com/dance_fever.php, you will have a page that retains all the correct sessions vars, etc. Taking the given example, you can then put a dance_fever.php.html in the sts_template folder. Hope that helps, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

avail1now Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 Thanks for the tip. I currently have a single sts_templates.html file and its relevant .css file located under server/catalog/includes folder let me make sure I understand the file structure then, create the following folder: 1. server/catalog/includes/sts_templates 2. place the content of the specific pages in the above folder. 3. Name those pages as follows the store front: index.php_0.html specific category id xx pages: index.php_xx.html specific product info page in category id xx: product_info.php_cxx.html specific product id yy info page: product_info.php_yy.html shipping: shipping.php.html shopping cart: shopping_cart.php.html 4. Where do u place the file.css to control styling of the content in the above pages?

Leathel Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 avail1now, Mine is directly in the catalog folder.

jenamiles Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 I absolutely love this conribution. It has made extremely easy for me to "dumb down" OSC per client requirements. I am stuck on one thing that may be answered by STS or in relation to STS.... how on earth do I change the catalogbox/informationbox <a> settings. I have searched the last two days through the forum's search and google and haven't been able to find anything. The site is on a white background; however, the nav menu is on a blue background.... so I need two seperate link colors. I either need to know how to change the catalogbox/infobox <a> or the content and footer areas <a> I tried to create a clas referenced by the <td>s that contain each item for each area and that still doesn't work. The site is www.preciousbabydesigns.com. I installed great categories trying to solve this issue but haven't been able to figure it out through it either. I am prepared to backlevel to straight STS again. Thank you, Jen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
