backup your original catalog files, after backing up(having them saved in a safe folder on your pc, so that you can restore at any time), delete your original files from the server and copy the new files from the version 1b archive.
Edit the includes/configure.php and admin/includes/configure.php files to suit your needs.
To restore your original files, just remove the Thin Blue template osc files from the ftp server and copy the backed up files back on the http://ftp.

hi, good template but the product_info page is full of adsense, i can’t seem to find the code to remove it. Can u guide me to remove the adsense please, thanks

yeah, there are 2 ad sections in product_info.php and in index.php in the product listing loop. post a comment with your email so that I can reach to you via email to talk about this in detail.

Very nice trick of calling the function.
Good template

i’ve loved this theme!

check out the admin panel to turn thumbnails off, or use the version without thumbnails.

Remove the php fuctions located in the files which display the ads.

I have sent 2 emails requesting the ad removals. I would like some details on how to remove the adsense ads.
I have not been able to find what needs to be removed. You said above to remove php functions in the files which display the ads. I found info in the compatibility file. Please send me an email on how to remove these ads.

@badeziner
first thanks for the great work. Your themes look fantastic.
I must admit i though i would be able to remove the adsense and i think i was got one, but i have no idea where to find the other. I made a small donation under this e-mail through paypal.
Off course if you want i’ll put credits to your name/site in the html. Could you plz mail me how to remove the adsense?
Many thanks

I fixed the problem thanks for your help and there is a sentence at top of the sreen:
Warning: Installation directory exists at: /home/neo49159/public_html/store/install. Please remove this directory for security reasons.
Whether or not I should delete the install folder?
thanks1

Great template!
But I have a BIG problem after installing the IE7 fix.
Every time I try to view the shopping cart I get:
Fatal error: Class ‘infoBoxHeading’ not found in C:\wamp\www\catalog2\shopping_cart.php on line 20
And the right column is still bad.

John, please check your gd library. Make sure it’s correctly installed.
on September 16th, 2008 at 2:36 am
MJS, that’s strange since I have tested the template before uploading it and the patch. Will check for you again and come back when I have an explanation. If you managed to fix it holla here so that others how may have the same problem can use your solution. Thx

Hi badeziner,
I love your templete.
I use the oscommerce sc2.
After 3 weeks using your templete, I have following questions waiting for you reply, and I think these will also benefit other guys who use this templete.
1, the change of the layout.
a. On the left coloum, like the catalogue, I want to make the width a litter bit wider to make the texts of catalogue name can be list on one line. Also I do not want to appear the numbers at the end as well. How to do it? I tried, but unsuccessful.
b. If I want to change the font of the names of catalogue, e.g. make the text larger,chane the colour, how?
2, for the ads on the website, Please tell how to remove them. I leave my email address to you.
Thanks in advance!

You have to check out the css stylesheet file and the box classes file as well. also have a look in the column left and right files. Most of the code for changing the layout the way you want it can be found in those files.
Read the email about the ads.

badeziner thank you for the excellent template. I was wondering how I could resize the menu bar to take the same width as the banner for the header?
Thanks,
Panikos
on November 12th, 2008 at 4:50 am
Panikos to do this you have to take a look in the header.php file and into the css file. You will find the code you need to change into these two files. All you need to know is some basic html and css.
on November 14th, 2008 at 9:47 pm
Thanks badeziner,
It was quite simple in the end like you said. My site is under development, when its done I will contact you via email on info to remove the adsense (since i see from the previous post thats what you prefer) and I’ll sort out something with the donate button as a thank you for sharing your work.
