Hi there,
I have updated Opencart from a previous version to the current version.
The theme is displaying errors in the header and footer. I downloaded the latest version of the theme and uploaded the header/footer files, but not keen on installing all files, in a way to wipe out my changes…anyway, the error displays Notice: Undefined variable: text_contact in /home2/organicf/public_html/catalog/view/theme/geccoshop/template/common/header.tpl on line 155 and similar multiple times on the page.
The site is www.organicfootprints.com.au .
Thanks,
Thomas
Hi,
Some opencart updates requires many changes in theme so you have to reupload all theme files.
Thanks, thought I could get away with quick and easy…Just 1 more error showing above the main header… Warning: strpos() [function.strpos]: Empty delimiter in /home2/organicf/public_html/catalog/controller/common/header.php on line 70 on www.organicfootprints.com.au
Thanks!
reupload all theme files (controller too)
All uploaded, and a hard reload in Chrome…still same issue…
Are you sure you reuploaded it from theme’s folder: /catalog/controller/common/header.php
Yes, I am sure…
I didn’t modify 70th line in the /catalog/controller/common/header.php
Do you see the same error when a Default theme is active?
You can also remove this code – http://pastebin.com/C15GWHce
The error displays in the default theme…any ideas? Thanks
Ok, errors fixed now, thanks for all your help! What is annoying me, the price in the “Shopping Cart” link in the header is not displaying the total price of the items…Am I missing anything?
It looks like you still didn’t reupload all files. There is no problem on my test site. Does it work when you remove catalog\view\theme\geccoshop\template\module\cart.tpl
It can be caused by some vqmod too.
It now shows the products in that section..but no total price…see attached screenshot… http://i.imgur.com/6L1VR7F.jpg
Also use VQMOD for a redirection mod…if useful
Does it work when a default theme is active?
It’s part of only your theme, I believe…
Then I don’t know how to help you. Other buyers don’t have such problem. It can be caused by some mod, vqmod, module, etc
Hi again…Is there any code I can modify to remove just the total price from the cart bit in the header…http://i.imgur.com/hqBoIKF.png
You can remove it here – catalog/view/theme/geccoshop/template/module/cart.tpl
If you still have a problem with a cart then install another clean opencart for testing only.
Thanks, commenting that out worked for me

Hello,
Replace #b1cd48 color
Is there anyway to get a slideshow of images to show on the homepage?
Thanks!
There is a tutorial about how to do it – http://themeforest.net/item/gecco-shop/discussion/1208592?page=1#comment_1627426
Where did you get the header img? Is this a picture you made custom? I’d like something made for me. Can i hire you to design something exclusive for me to replace that? Shoot me your instant messenger address and we can talk about it there.
Can i hire you to make my simple little website?
The template i bought from you is not the same as the one i saw on the sample has a lot of stuff that needs a work around…
The template i bought from you is not the same as the one i saw on the sample
Could you show a screenshot? Did you make all settings like in the theme’s documentation.
Yes, have a look @ adultpornstarcontent.com.
Disable Carousel module and change position of Featured module (check theme’s documentation)
Hello Diabolique,
My webshop is in English and Japanese. I installed Japanese language pack and only “Add to cart” button is still in English on Japanese pages. There is this translation$_['button_cart'] = '???????';
in japanese.php in catalog>language>japanese, but it doesn’t work.
Do you have any idea why?
Oh, “Browse all” on the top page is also in English. Is this also a button?
Hello,
It’s a graphic button which you have to replace in the image folder.
Thank you for your reply. I made graphic images (add-to-cart-jpn.png and browse-all-jpn.png) and uploaded to the image folder. How can I make them switchable between JPN and ENG pages, could you explain?
Or, you mentioned on the page 6, “There are PSD files with buttons + empty PNG buttons”, and reply was “images are in the css. If I have the site in English and German?”, and your reply was “You should create a new translation for css class and button will be switchable”.
I’m confused that maybe I didn’t have to make new graphic images??
Yes, you need 2 “Add to cart” graphic buttons in different languages.
OK. Then what code should be in which file?
It’s not a simple work -> http://themeforest.net/item/gecco-shop/1208592/faqs/8485
I actually have done that, and it didn’t work.. catalog/language/?/common/home.php doesn’t exist, so I made a copy of footer.php and renamed it to home.php, pasted the code inside, and followed your instruction the rest. Then top page became blank. It’s not a simple work, but I need to make it. What can be a reason I fail?
Hey, I tried once again and I found my error. Now I could do the operation linked above. Could you add explanation how to get the graphic buttons for each language?
It’s just an example how to add new translations. For the “add to cart” button it will be product.php file not home.php. It’s a massive customisation.
Are you not going to tell how to make it?
Sorry but there will be too much work.
Hi. I have a problem with the lightbox of the images. When I click to enlarge a picture of a product, it does’nt show as in the demo, and the next/prev buttons are one beside the other one. Please check: My website is: http://www.deco-cadou.ro Try to enlarge any picture on the frontend. I tried with all browsers. All the pictures are 600X450px. Thank you
Hi,
I’m sorry I forgot to include colorbox files. Download theme after 24 hours once again and reupload following folder: catalog\view\javascript\jquery
Hello, i would like add a fly basket in right column or jquery basket looks like original opencart (by click, you can see products in basket). May be you’ve got an idea ?
Hello,
Sorry but it’s impossible.
reinstalling it fixed the problem!
Additionally, specials showed up twice in the home page. See the right section of my site:
http://gusto.com.phPlease help.
Sam
I see you have resolved this problem because I see 1 Specials module.
How do I display related products automatically rather than having the user click the “Related Products” header category?
For example, check my site
http://gusto.com.ph/index.php?route=product/product&path=2&product_id=54Below product detail is “Related Products”, click it and related products will show. I want all related products to display by default.
Thanks, Sam
hey thanks that works!
Hi, I’ll want buy your template, but when I tested it on my smartphone (android 4.0) I found bug. When I click on product and click on photo then preview window opened without picture. Only when I click again on preview window the photo are coming. Could you fix it?
Hi,
Do you see the same problem here – http://demo.opencart.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=43
It’s a Colorbox or Android related bug which I don’t plan to fix it.
Hello!
My shop is in English and Japanese, and I installed a Japanese language pack. Japanese words are not shown correctly on the HP (other pages are OK), so I changed “Geosans.basic.fonts.js” to “Geosans.font.js (91 kb)”, in catalog/view/theme/geccoshop/template/common/header.tpl, according to your instruction. But still the texts are odd. Do you have any suggestion?
Hello, Geosans font doesn’t support Japanese so you have to change cufon font. Inside theme’s documentation you will find instructions how to do it.
Cufon.replace('.page-title, .welcome, .cart-total, .price-amount', { fontFamily: 'Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif' } ); in catalog/view/theme/geccoshop/template/common/header.tpl.
but still Japanese are odd. What should I do??
Open header.tpl and remove:
<script type="text/javascript" src="catalog/view/theme/geccoshop/js/cufon.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="catalog/view/theme/geccoshop/js/Geosans_basic.font.js"></script>
Thank you for your reply! But it still doesn’t work by removing the code… I tried to remove also
Cufon.replace('.page-title, .welcome, .cart-total, .price-amount', { fontFamily: 'Geosans' } ); in header.tpl but no change.
Anywhere else to modify?
Do you still see cufon font replacement?
It’s like this http://aikafeltworksjp.shop.wosbee.com/screenshot.jpg I wrote in Japanese after “Featured products”, “Customer reviews”, and left side of review, and “Custom made for you!”.
use utf-8 entities, if japanese is even supported by utf-8
Could you suggest how? utf-8 supports Japanese. There is <meta charset="UTF-8" /> already in header.tpl…?
Then convert your text to UTF-8 format here – http://www.motobit.com/util/charset-codepage-conversion.asp
and paste it into home.tpl
Thank you for your advice! I’m using Dreamweaver and it was encoding my texts to Shift JIS!!! I’m sorry, I didn’t notice this setting. Now it works fine. I really appreciate your support!
and there was no need of removing the codes in header.tpl. Original codes work fine.
Hi,
I just purchased this theme an hour ago and installed it on one of my test machine. Please have a look at my site:
http://zaffler.net/andros/index.php?route=common/home1) The problem is, when I added a Welcome section in the home page, it blocks some of the text. Let me know how I can remove “Welcome to Gusto Philippines” text but retain the welcome text.
2) The “Featured Products” text is also misplaced. It should be BELOW the welcome text but it currently appears tight on top of welcome text.
Please let me know how to fix these two issues.
Thanks, Sam
Hi,
1. .welcome div has absolute position. Rename it.
2. Content Bottom position on the Home is for Featured module only.
Thanks! Let me know how I can remove “Welcome to Gusto Philippines” text but retain the welcome text.
Probably you have to change position of the Welcome module.
If I arranged the Welcome section on the Home and position is Content Top, it no longer appears in the home page. So I need to achieve the following:
1. Move the welcome text paragraph right below “Welcome to Gecco Shop! Best prices and quality”
2. Remove “Welcome to Gusto Philippines”.
A much detailed instructions will be appreciated.
Regards, Sam
forget it..i fixed it myself
Hello Diabolique,
Is it possible to make links on a header’s background image? My background image has 3 product photos and it would be nice if each product has a link to its product page.
I googled and I thought this way might work: 1. dividing the background image into 3 parts, 2. making links to each images
No.1, I couldn’t position them by “px” at exact place. The middle image was at the “center”. The code is below. (catalog/view/theme/geccoshop/css/stylesheet.css)
#header-background { width:100%; height:350px; background-color:#FFFFFF; background-image:url("http://image1.jpg"), url("http://image2.jpg"), url("http://image3.jpg"); background-position: 0px 0px, 529px 0px, 917px 0px; background-repeat:no-repeat; position: relative; }
#common-home #header-background { height:550px; background-image:url("http://image1.jpg"), url("http://image2.jpg"), url("http://image3.jpg"); }
No.2, I found this article; http://ran.ge/2009/11/11/css-trick-turning-a-background-image-into-a-clickable-link/
There are HTML code and CSS code, and I don’t know where I should insert these codes. Can they both be written in (catalog/view/theme/geccoshop/css/stylesheet.css)?? Then where exactly in the file?
No3. OR, Creating multiple clickable areas over one background image http://www.position-relative.com/tutorials/tute1_css_bg_image.php
Same as #2, I don’t know where I should insert these codes.
I’m afraid that answering to this question is probably out of your business, but maybe there are some more people who want to make links to a header’s background if possible, because it’s using a big area.
Thank you for reading!
3. Into the header.tpl and stylesheet.css
Thank you for your answer. But could you please specify exactly where I can put the codes? I have been testing but nothing worked. I have knowledge only about HTML. Is it better to forget about this??
There will be too much work.
OK. Thank you for your reply!
Hello!
I think after removing “Brands We Offer” from HP following your instruction in: catalog/view/theme/geccoshop/template/common/home.tpl, Right Column (“Latest”, “Specials”) appear in right side under “News” (Content top). Did I erase some other code?
And is it possible to show my blog feed on the Right Column, putting a title “Blog” with the same form as “News”? I’m thinking to use a gadget. If this is possible, where should I put code? I was wondering if I buy this theme or your Aight shop theme which has blog feeds already…
Hello,
Remove following code:
<div class="frontpage-title"><span>Brands We Offer</span></div> [ul id="mycarousel" class="jcarousel-skin-tango"] ...... [/ul]
And is it possible to show my blog feed on the Right Column, putting a title “Blog” with the same form as “News”? I’m thinking to use a gadget. If this is possible, where should I put code? I was wondering if I buy this theme or your Aight shop theme which has blog feeds already…
You can try this extension: http://www.opencart.com/index.php?route=extension/extension/info&extension_id=6420Thank you for super quick reply! I found that I erased after . Now it’s working fine. Also thank you for the extension’s link. I’m new to Opencart and I didn’t think about using an extension. I’m using Blogger and I’ll find a proper one. Thank you so much!
ups, code disappeared! I erased /div after /ul.
Reupload backup of home.tpl
Hello.
Im using the “pop-up confirmations” module, and all other “Add” links like addtocart on category are working ok, but the Add to Cart Button on the product page stil shows the Gecco original warning…
Can you tell me how can i change this add to cart button reacts as a original addtocart javascript so it can show the pop-up confirmations warning?
Hello,
It’s probably a vqmod which means it’s searching for some part of code and replacing it. If theme is non-standard then it can’t find code for replace.
I would edit the question above and add another question but I can’t, so I have to write another post.
I’m trying to add different BG for different category but I don’t seem to do it right!
I changed ”> in header.tpl.
I added #Vajeti { background-image:url(”../image/header/vajeti.png”)!important; } to the bottom of stylesheet.css.
When I load the “Vajeti” page, there is no background. My DIV looks like this: and I don’t see any style applied in Firebug… Not header-background and not Vajeti… It’s just an empty style. What am I doing wrong?Matej
I don’t see code so I can’t help you.
lp, Matej
I don’t know what you did with code but header-background doesn’t have enough height.
All I did was: change to in header.tpl
and added #Vajeti { background-image:url(”../image/header/vajeti.png”)!important; } to the bottom of stylesheet.css
As far as I see, not even style ‘header-background’ gets loaded, do that is why there is not enough width, and I don’t see ‘header-background Vajeti’ in firebug, when I expect the mentioned DIV.
W3C validator returns the following error: Line 101, Column 27: value of attribute “id” must be a single token This attribute cannot take a space-separated list of words as a value, but only one word (“token”). This may also be caused by the use of a space for the value of an attribute which does not permit it.If I change back to , it works…
Matej
id="header-background <?php echo $title; ?>
for:
class="header-background <?php echo $title; ?>
Open stylesheet.css and replace #header-background for .header-background (2 times)
Also replace #Vajeti for .Vajeti
Great! Now it’s working:) I see you also fixed the guide in the FAQ section. Nice!
Thanks for help!
Stumbled upon another problem. Some of my categories names are not single words, so I get “header-background cevlji za konje”. Is it possible to get some other id for class tag instead of title? I checked headers.php in controller folder, but I don’t find anything useful. Maby category ID or something that is unique and single word? Maby a SEO tag of the category? Anything of that possible? In worst case scenario, I will go with str_replace function and replace spaces with -.
Matej
You can use keywords too
<?php echo $keywords; ?>
By the way, it might not be bad idea to add a title tag to products and category links, since names are croped, this way you at least get the full name on hover.
I don’t plan to do it.
Too bad. It’s not that much work (just add title=”<?php echo $product[‘name’]; ?>” or similar to links) and it helps with SEO . Anyway, your choice…
Is it possible to heighten the top menu, since my names of categories are quite long and now I have them in 2 rows… If height would be bigger, names could get broken in 2 lines and I would get all of them in one row…
No, I suggest to decrease margin between each category here (stylesheet.css):
#categories ul li { float:left; margin:0 0 0 35px; position:relative; }
I tried doing that but the names are still too long. Anyway, I did limit the width of a ’#categories ul li’ and now I get all the names in. The only problem now is that submenu opens a bit too high and covers the text. How to move it down a bit?
It’s impossible.
