Where is this code coming from?

[circlekstrings]

Hello everyone - a while back we purchased a template from SD360 - we love the look and feel, and it was a great experience to deal with them..

But now im trying to take on some of the responsibility on my own to tune the site..

If you look at any one of our main pages you will see there is a "section footer" that keeps appearing on our pages, im trying to make it go away...here is an example:

http://circlekstrings.com/store/index.html/index.html

at the bottom of the main table window you will see a gray gradient box with the links "Standard Scale String Sets Medium Scale String Sets Long Scale String Sets " in it.

-- - - - - - - - -- - - - - - -

SO in the end there are 2 problems
1. the title of the page says <!-- Empty Field [Link Name] -->
2. there is this chunk of code being inserted into every page: at the bottom of the main table window you will see a gray gradiant box with the links "Standard Scale String Sets Medium Scale String Sets Long Scale String Sets " in it.

I think both of my problems are related :0

SO can anyone point me in ShopSite where that "section footer" might be getting added? if I manually edit the page and remove the code it looks great, but as soon as I publish it gets overwritten and it re-apperas.

Here is the actual code that gets inserted

<tr>
<td>
<div id="links">
<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td>

<a href="http://circlekstrings.com/store/index.html/index.html"><!-- Empty field [LinkName] --></a><br>

<a class="link_name" href="http://circlekstrings.com/store/index.html/standard.main.html">Standard Scale String Sets</a>


<a class="link_name" href="http://circlekstrings.com/store/index.html/medium.main.html">Medium Scale String Sets</a>


<a class="link_name" href="http://circlekstrings.com/store/index.html/long.main.html">Long Scale String Sets</a>


<a href="http://circlekstrings.com/store/index.html/about.html"><!-- Empty field [LinkName] --></a><br>
</td>
<td>
<a href="http://circlekstrings.com/store/index.html/Before_You_Buy.html"><!-- Empty field [LinkName] --></a><br>
<a href="http://circlekstrings.com/store/index.html/Gauges_And_Tension.html"><!-- Empty field [LinkName] --></a><br>
<a href="http://circlekstrings.com/store/index.html/contact.html"><!-- Empty field [LinkName] --></a><br>
<a href="http://circlekstrings.com/store/index.html/merchandise.html"><!-- Empty field [LinkName] --></a><br>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
</td>
</tr>


The above code gets inserted RIGHT before the footer.. i have checked the template files and cant seem to find where this is coming from..

Other things I did - If I remove one of the pages in the noted footer (by deleteing the pge the link references in the pages menu) - our site redirects every link to index.html - even though the URL migh SAY something different it only displays index.html - some extremely strange behavior - its like our entire left navigation is appearing in the footer, but it gets mangled??? i dont know

any ideas on what I may be experiencing? Where is this "sub-footer" coming from?

Thanks in advance

Some more digging and I have found that the exact location is BETWEEN the Text fields on the page:

Text 1:
Main text on page.

Weird inserted data

Text 2:

so whatever it is - that is where its getting planted

Chris,

What that grey gradient box is doing is displaying page links. If you go into the pages section in shopsite and select a page and click on the "assign items" button you will see there are pages linked. If you remove these links that grey gradient box will go away. The reason nothing actually appears in the box is because the Link Name field is not filled in for your pages.

As for the root directory issue, you are using the [-- OUTPUT_DIRECTORY_URL --] tag correctly. You will need to contact your host to have them correct this setting for you so that the tag works correctly. This is not a setting you or I have the access to change.

Ok im on with supprt trying to get that changed - the push broke everything even the drop down menu so right now none of our links work and the entire site is off line

OK 2 of the three fixed were making progress - thanks!
support is regenerating an auth file with the correct directory in it - hopefully this will solve our problems
