Back with Fresh Problems :) Shouldnt be hard :P

Postby Packer » Fri Apr 04, 2008 3:02 am

Hey Guys,
The website is coming along slowly but surely..

The few problems I have at the moment are:

1, I have changed the menu navigation, now it functions like dropdown menu, where the user clicks the title and more options dropdown. I know how to update the menu so it affects the whole site, however, the system require <script> tags in the header of each page.. So my question is, how do I change the header of the website to add this functionality to all the web pages?

2, I dont really understand how the breadcrumb system works, can anyone give me an example of code they would use in the breadcrumb part of ShopSite.

Thanks in advance for any help.

1. If you have added custom code to do the dropdown menus then you must be using a custom template. So just include the code that you need in the custom template header area.

2. ShopSite doesn't have build in bread crumbs. I have seen a few posts to the forum that mention how they have done it. So you might try searching through the forum to see how they have done it. I think they have used custom fields to contain the values that they display.

If you look under Merchandising > Templates > Includes, there is a file there called sd360_instructions_breadcrumb.html that explains how to use the breadcrumbs.

Sometimes javascripts need to be in the <head> tags. Other times like this it's not really necessary. You can insert the javascript into your Includes > sd360_inc_leftNav.html include and it will be on every page where the left navigation menu is.

Change the code to look like this:

Code: Select all
     <td class="leftNav">
      <script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript" src="flipmenu.js">
      <ul id="leftNav">


In the future if you have something that must be in the <head> tags you can edit these templates:

1) Page Templates > sd360_page_template.html
2) Page Templates > sd360_gallery_template.html
3) Advanced > Search Templates > sd360_search_template.html
4) Includes > sd360_cart.html
5) Includes > sd360_inc_moreInfo.html
6) Includes > sd360_customerRegistration.html
7) Includes > sd360_giftCertificate.html

If you put your code in these templates it will be on every page in your site.
