System Pages

Started May 14, 2011 by nickfinan

How do you edit content that is in the system pages. For example, I am trying to edit the example text on the page member-login-register-confirmation which gives a button that links people back to the homepage. I have looked thru stuff to see how I can change it. Help!!

Hi All,

New to CMS/design so sorry if this has obvious answer!

However when you click on the continue button you are no longer taken to the checkout area. When I looked at the pages list the express checkout page is no longer there.

Menu Drop Down problem

Started May 12, 2011 by jazzydanz

I don't understand why the drop down menus buttons behave the way they do. When the submenus drop down they are either causing the whole menu to expand the header region and then relocate the other menu buttons or they drop down and the submenu items cannot be clicked on because the next main menu button takes precedence.

I am using the circles theme.

Is there something wrong with the javascript or code?

Special Pages

Started May 11, 2011 by nickfinan

Hi Guys.

I plan on having page/s on my site that will allow clients to order images at certain sizes. I dont want to have to list 8x10s framed, unframed etc etc, I would rather have the heading being 8x10 with drop down boxes for 10-15 sizes and 10-15 finishes. Each image I will have stored on Coppermine would need to be linked to the order and pricing page within my LiveSite which I could do myself with simple links but once on the LiveSite part of the website I would need the drop down boxes etc which would then link to my checkout etc.
Sounds complicated but I know what I mean and if you need clarification I will gladly try and write this again.
What I would like is a price from you guys for creating a page that I can duplicate as need be with all the drop down boxes and all linked to the checkout process. HELP!! Nick:(

Any chance to be close for a Livesite upgrade to work with PHP 5.3?

Started May 9, 2011 by msalles

As it is for me, it is not important yet, because my host provider still work with PHP 5.2. Also know that it is due to lack of ZendOptimizer upgrade to PHP 5.3.

Just want to know if it is considered as a possible near to solve issue because sooner or later webhosts will shift to PHP 5.3 and, frankly... LiveSite is great.

Chat button placement with Service Plan

Started May 9, 2011 by designpub

Hi Support,

On this page: http://www.tmgmediadirect.com/pages/home_testing_chat, I have the chat button placed with the other buttons on the page. (next to the bottom, newsletter button).

All that I did, was add the button in that location.

It currently shows OFFLINE, even though I have logged in as an operator.

We do have the chat service plan with AliveChat. I have also uploaded the ONLINE button and selected the ONLINE and OFFLINE images on the settings page.

What more do I need to do, to make this work, please?

Do I add a link to the button? Where are the instructions for this please?
