Sorry to keep adding to this post.

But here is some more information for you.

You state on your site that the no-moo menu will not have shadow or rounded corners in IE

But on the Server2K3 IE7 it has

and guess what?

On the XPP IE7 it has not!!!!!

Thanks once again

We have now tested this template on 5 systems and we have decided that as the results vary between system to system we can now longer use this template.

We have a very short deadline to get this site up and running and have suppliers ready and various trade magazines ready to write articles on this site.
This side of our business is very large and to use a template that works on some systems and not others is just not a option.
Around 75%+ of our users will use IE to view the site so it has to be 100%

As I said I have a meeting regarding this site on Friday so I feel I will not have enough time to complete a beta version if I continue to use this template.

Thanks for all your help and if you do discover the problem, please let me know as we like this template and may choose to use it again in the future.

We are a little bit gutted as we have paid for the use of this template that does not work correctly

Any comments would be greatly received

Kind Regards

Hello uvfish,

I had the same problem and played a little with the template_css.css. When I changed the code in line 1073
Code:
#s5_topbackbottombar{
height:5px;
width:100%;
background:#3F454C;}

to

Code:
#s5_topbackbottombar{
height:5px !important;
width:100%;
background:#3F454C;}

the black bar appeared.

Artos

Hello again uvfish,

you wrote:
The tabs are clear not black, they show black on the Server2k3 IE7 and Clear on the XPP IE7 (Both are the same version number of IE)

Also the menus are a few pixels too low.


I did some changes in the index.php, starting at line 214 :

Old:

Code:
#s5_mainmenuleft {
background:none;
height:29px;
width:16px;
margin-top: 0px;
filter:
progid:dximagetransform.microsoft.alphaimageloader(src='<?php echo $mosConfig_live_site;?>/templates/emercantilism/images/s5box_left2.png', sizingmethod='scale');}

#s5_mainmenumiddle {
background:none;
height:9px;
filter:
progid:dximagetransform.microsoft.alphaimageloader(src='<?php echo $mosConfig_live_site;?>/templates/emercantilism/images/s5box_middle.png', sizingmethod='scale');}

#s5_s5boxleft {
background:none;
height:29px;
width:35px;
margin-top: 0px;
filter:
progid:dximagetransform.microsoft.alphaimageloader(src='<?php echo $mosConfig_live_site;?>/templates/emercantilism/images/s5box_left.png', sizingmethod='crop');}

#s5_mainmenuright {
background:none;
height:29px;
width:16px;
filter:
progid:dximagetransform.microsoft.alphaimageloader(src='<?php echo $mosConfig_live_site;?>/templates/emercantilism/images/s5box_right.png', sizingmethod='crop');}

#s5_s5boxright {
background:none;
height:29px;
width:16px;
filter:
progid:dximagetransform.microsoft.alphaimageloader(src='<?php echo $mosConfig_live_site;?>/templates/emercantilism/images/s5box_right.png', sizingmethod='crop');}

New:

Code:
#s5_mainmenuleft {
background:none;
height:32px;
width:16px;
margin-top: 0px;
filter:
progid:dximagetransform.microsoft.alphaimageloader(src='<?php echo $mosConfig_live_site;?>/templates/emercantilism/images/s5box_left2.png', sizingmethod='scale');}

#s5_mainmenumiddle {
background:none;
height:32px;
filter:
progid:dximagetransform.microsoft.alphaimageloader(src='<?php echo $mosConfig_live_site;?>/templates/emercantilism/images/s5box_middle.png', sizingmethod='scale');}

#s5_s5boxleft {
background:none;
height:32px;
width:35px;
margin-top: 0px;
filter:
progid:dximagetransform.microsoft.alphaimageloader(src='<?php echo $mosConfig_live_site;?>/templates/emercantilism/images/s5box_left.png', sizingmethod='crop');}

#s5_mainmenuright {
background:none;
height:32px;
width:16px;
filter:
progid:dximagetransform.microsoft.alphaimageloader(src='<?php echo $mosConfig_live_site;?>/templates/emercantilism/images/s5box_right.png', sizingmethod='crop');}

And the template looks good in IE7.

I think there is a mistake in line 224 in the original template index.php, height of #s5_mainmenumiddle should be 29px and not 9px. I increased the height to 32 and the menu was at the right place.

Hi

This template is now sorted, we have one more request for help.
The 5px line that travels across the whole browser window, under the menu, can we make it the same width as the site not the page?
I am sure its set to 100% somewhere, but I have changes what I thought it was in the CSS and it has stayed at 100%

Thanks in advance for your help

Lee,

The width you have on the bar right now is 951%, if you want it the width of the page then set it to 100%. If you want it the width of the body set #s5_topbackbottombar to the following:

width:951px;
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;

Thanks

Thought I had worked that out, but made a typo % to px.

It was very late at night when I tried it

one final thing which you may or not be able to help with

I would like store admins to be able to log-in to shop via the front end.
Virtuemart states that the Joomla login form must be unpublished and the VM form published.

But to use the nice login form "POP up" you have to use Joomla login,

When I publish the VM module to reveal the Admin link the link gives me a 404 error?

Any ideas would be gratefully received

Thank you once again

Hi,

The popup (S5 Box) will accept any module, not just the default login module.

Is the link giving you an error once you click on it or the entire module is giving you the error? I am not sure why the admins would need to use this module anyhow. The only reason why it would need to be there is for the admin link to show. I have actually in the past used just the default Joomla login and then created a Joomla menu with the link to the admin section and made that menu only visible to admins. A little more work and two modules that way but I personally thought it looked better in the end and easier to group it with other admin links.

Mike

I have solved the frontend login problem

For some reason the link was index2.php?page=store.index&pshop_mode=admin&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=1

This should be index.php?page=store.index&pshop_mode=admin&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=1
with no 2 ?!?

The only problem I have now is when the Acordian menu is published i get "you need to login" to view any products

The accordion menu shouldn't affect permissions on your products.  It appears as though you have removed the menu from your site, if you still would like to use the menu, please republish and we can continue debugging.
