I love this new template — very sleek, not too busy at all.
I’m working on a site for a glass artisan right now, so the photos are more important than the descriptions. Is there anyway to enable the lightbox [click to enlarge] feature from the category thumbnails rather than making customers drill down to the detail page?
on July 14th, 2008 at 4:17 pm
yeah, you just have to edit the osC modules(includes/modules/) and add the lightbox code to the images.
on July 14th, 2008 at 6:31 pm
after several hours of alternating between tailoring the template and loading in items, I just pried myself away from Firefox3 to go trouble-hunting in Safari3.1 (perfect!), Opera9.1 (perfect!), IE6/IE7 (main table blown on home page due to 160×160 thumbnails fighting against lack of break/space between “Details” button and “Add-to-cart” button -> Line60 in includes/modules/new_products.php : add one space to change DETAILS).’‘. …TO READ… DETAILS).’ ‘. = template works perfectly)
Also, on IE6/IE7 (WinXP) — the lightbox orients the image container to the left instead of center, and I’m not quite certain how to fix that for IE without shifting it to the right of center on other browsers.
Leaving Firefox was the first time I discovered the google ads and [/* You are not allowed to prevent these adzones...] What can be done about this? Feel free to email me. Thanks!

Ask for permission to remove the ads, and provide a url to your store.

looks wet down, great job

You have to ask for permission, provide a url to your shop and agree to keep the copyright intact in the footer.
on July 18th, 2008 at 3:22 am
This is an awesome theme. I am helping a Christian friend on a shopping site to sell some home made cards. Some of the stuff that show up through Google ads are not acceptable because it may contradict or challenge or even mock the faith. Hence I make a humble request for permission to remove the ads. The footer with copyright will be intact always.
If this is not acceptable, I will not be able to use this wonderful theme.
Thanks a lot,
Matt
on July 18th, 2008 at 3:32 am
You have my permission to remove the ads. Check out your email. Thank you.
on July 18th, 2008 at 7:21 pm
Thank you very much badeziner.

I’ve been having lots of trouble intergrating the seperate price per customer contribution to this theme. Any possability of a release with it intergrated?

Hiya. Love the layout of this template. Been having a fiddle with it, but i can’t seem to change the background (the top part around the logo) from grey to all black.
Can you please help me on what to do, so my background is all back?
Thanks again,

First off all thank you so much for this wonderfull template..

on August 1st, 2008 at 1:17 am
I just installed GG9 and it looks great. I cannot sign in as an admin now. I’m a newbie and lost.
This is what I’m getting when going to the admin page.
“Unable to connect to database server!”

Hi, I really appreciate your sharing these. I am having a problem however, in installing a skin. Would you have any advice? I have installed and uninstalled several skins because I can’t get them to work. The method I use is:
Install oscommerce in my root directory. (mondogizmos.com) 1-I open my FTP program. 2- I navigate to the OSC catalog folder on my server. 3-I navigate to the SKIN catalog folder on my computer. 4- I select all the files, from Admin on down. 5-Send them to the server. 6- When I get the OVERWRITE? prompt, I select YES-ALL. When it is finished, I get one of two problems- Either an install/upgrade screen ( I even tried upgrading, but when finished, The home page is still- mondogizmos.com/install/index) or if that doesn’t happen, I get “cannot connect to database server” Help! Thanks. Alan
on August 2nd, 2008 at 2:37 pm
Just overwrite all the files except the ones in admin folder and subfolders and includes/configure.php. Gl.
on August 2nd, 2008 at 4:38 pm
Hi Badeziner,
I love this template, thanks.
Since I don’t understand php coding, could you please give me step-by-step guide on this matter below? Or, it would be great if you just send me needed files for replacing/overwrite. Thanks again…

hi am new at this if u can email me a quick tutorial on what file to upload the template so it would come out on my index.

Read the osCommerce documentation on how to install the script.
on August 11th, 2008 at 8:47 pm
Hi Badeziner, love the design. Could you please send me instructions on how to remove the google ads. Thanks for your help.
on August 19th, 2008 at 9:45 am
Requesting information on removal of google adds.
My boss likes the look of this template but hates the adds (Doesn’t everyone hate adds? :P)
Copyright will stay in place.
Thank you!
on August 19th, 2008 at 10:50 am
Love your template!
Could i request instructions on remove google adds please!
on August 21st, 2008 at 3:18 pm
Hi Badeziner
I am going to use your template - its great. However I want the right column to return. Therefore I went through each page adding the code which displays the right column.
Heres an example from the index.php page
<td width=”" valign=”top”><table border=”0″ width=”" cellspacing=”0″ cellpadding=”2″>
My left column is 220 wide as defined in application_top.php with define(’BOX_WIDTH’, 220);
My problem is that the right column does not take on this width, although I am setting BOX_WIDTH, it takes on a different width.
Could you tell me what I am doing wrong, or edit 1 of the pages such as index.php and email it to me
Thanks
on August 21st, 2008 at 3:25 pm
That is a very complex mod you want to make to the template, the thing is the main layout is not compatible with the right column on. You’ll have to reedit the whole layout and make it compatible with the right column(add that extra width and stuff).
on August 31st, 2008 at 1:59 am
[...] I started searching for osCommerce templates on google. I found many free ones. One of the template that really attracted me is called the GG9 - Free lightbox osCommerce template. It is available from the below link: http://www.badeziner.com/2008/07/12/gg9-free-lightbox-oscommerce-template/ [...]
on September 5th, 2008 at 4:05 pm
I love the template, and would like to use it for our new shop. On the new peoducts box, I would like the background around the picture to be black instead of white. Where can I change this colour?
on September 7th, 2008 at 1:10 pm
Try checking the new_products module. You’ll find there the css code to edit or the name of the css class you have to edit.

Lovely Template
One Problem

I will keep your link back in my site. Please let me know how to remove the google ads from the site.
And I found one issue/bug. When clicking on “add to cart” product adding without any problem. But in that checkout page when I click on “continue shopping” button.. Its showing “Product not found!” error.. Am I missing something?
on September 14th, 2008 at 4:05 am
Hi
Thanks for the awesome template.
I am asking your permission to please remove the google adds. At the moment I am just testing and it brings up links to my competition sites.
Thank you very much
Hennie
on September 16th, 2008 at 2:42 am
Hennie, to disable the lightbox, remove the code found in product_info.php. You’ll see there some javascript files included and some javascript code around the image php code. Just edit that to suit your needs. Also you’ll have to do the same for the other files which display the product thumbnail image. Good luck.

hello, I just installed this template, but when i go to the admin tool i’m seeing an error with the sql code. I am new to all this, but i did notice that the admin tool downloaded with this package.

Hiya,
Im very new so please help,
How can change the store logo?
thanks
on September 18th, 2008 at 5:59 pm
Mij there is an empty logo image in the images directory. Just open that one with any image editor and paste your logo over it. Then save it and overwrite the actual logo image which displays the STORE LOGO text. Good luck.
on September 18th, 2008 at 6:01 pm
Dee, I think you have to reinstall the template. Try installing a blank copy from oscommerce.com and see if the problem is still there, if it isn’t then you really need to make sure that you correctly installed the GG9 template. If the problem is still there then you should contact your host abou this. Also try searching the oscommerce forums for any possible sollutions.
on September 18th, 2008 at 10:19 pm
I just downloaded the Greenmania there are no instructions complete on how to use it in oscommerce. I dragged the entire folder to my FTP but it does not show up when I go to my domain name. Please help it is a nice looking template but I can’t figure out how to use it. Everyone says the instructions should be in a read me file but they are not. All I have is the header_empty.jpg, catalog, screenshot, GPL.txt, license txt., and more free resources. Am I over looking or no doing something???
on September 18th, 2008 at 10:29 pm
ALso I guess I better get prepared with the google ads now how do I remove them or may I remove them??
Thanks
on September 19th, 2008 at 2:00 am
crystal, you have to go to the install browser and install the oscommerce script on your hosting server.

on September 20th, 2008 at 2:28 am
Great theme, I can’t seem to find instructions on how to load your them. I am new and no nothing about PHP. Can you help?
Thanks a million!
on September 20th, 2008 at 3:41 am
jv, you should look for the oscommerce installation instructions. To use this template, simply install the oscommerce script copy found in the zip you downloaded. enjoy.
on September 20th, 2008 at 12:52 pm
Great template. I ftp’ed every file and now I cannot admin login, which file do I copy back from the backup?
on September 22nd, 2008 at 3:32 am
Hey badeziner! First off, great template man, thank you very much! I would like permission to remove the google ads and also I was wondering if there was a way to add a “Sign Out” option at the top for those who are logged in (in the “TEXT_GREETING_PERSONAL”)? I am really new to this stuff so I am not sure how to add the extra argument in the general.php file. Anyways, thanks again man, great job!

on September 23rd, 2008 at 7:18 pm
dingocc, did you run the installer?
on September 25th, 2008 at 1:02 pm
Landis, read your email about the ads.
To add the sign out button, simply take the code from the default osCommerce template and add it to your template.

Hello,
Im haveing problems.
I just installed a new database and uploaded the GG9 template - catalog folder through http://FTP.
And i have warnings on the home page and admin, and can’t access admin or any pages from my home page.
this is the warning i have on the home page =
Warning: session_save_path(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/tmp) is not within the allowed path(s): (d:\users) in d:\users\foxycardsuk\public_html\includes\functions\sessions.php on line 169

Was i suppost to upload the catalog folder straight on to a new database ?
Please help,
Paul.
on October 13th, 2008 at 7:39 pm
Try going to the admin panel and the click on Sessions under Configuration. Once there change the session directory to none(leave the field empty). This should solve the problem partially. Try asking your host about oscommerce support or refer to the oscommerce documentation for further details about this problem.
on October 13th, 2008 at 8:30 pm

Hey there. I am using this template and I love it. The only problem I’m finding is the background color of the “New Products” listings is white. How would I go about changing this to Black like the regular product listing? Help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks again for the great work!
on October 15th, 2008 at 10:35 pm
Try looking in the new_products.php module or in the products_new.php. I’m not really sure of which one you are talking about.

Hi,
I have managed to get the xways template working and am very happy with it.

Hi. I think it looks great. I spent some time adapting to my needs and I can’t make the currency default to AUD Australian Dollars. The default is there but the price still comes up in US. If I remove the US dollars I just get a 0 dollar value. Also it just switches off after some time. Is it built into the template or is it my end?
Thanks
on October 23rd, 2008 at 9:28 am
It should work by default. I will check this later today. If possible post a comment to remind me. Thank you.
on October 23rd, 2008 at 10:23 am
Hiagain. Just the reminder you asked for regarding AUD not working as default. By the way the currency rate works. Newby question- Will this version need upgrading to 2.2 rc2a

there is a compatible romanian language pack for this template ?
on October 27th, 2008 at 3:42 am
lex, to install a language pack you have to upload the files in the respective folders and then go to the administration panel for further language configuration.
The store name can also be changed from the administration panel. Also there is a blank header image in the images folder to help you with the logo design.
You can find a compatible language pack on the oscommerce site in the contributions section.
on October 27th, 2008 at 11:46 pm

Hi, any tips on how to add text to the home page, above the new products listing? I tried the usual method, but it didn’t work. Thanks!
on November 12th, 2008 at 4:49 am
To add text on the main page you have to add the TEX_MAIN constant back into the index file, and then input your text into the language file where that constant is defined.
The second option would be to just add the html text into the index file above the include of the product listing module, but this will be the least dynamic method because no matter what the language is(I assume that you have more than one language) the text will remain the same.
Hope this helps.
on November 12th, 2008 at 5:04 am
rich, to replace that image with a swf you have to replace the html code of the image with a swf object code. note that the swf must be exactly the same size as the image to fit exactly into the layout.
on November 12th, 2008 at 5:06 am
Marcus, the best idea I can give you is to download the greenmania template, open the header.php file and look at the code for the basket link. Try to replicate that code into your template so that it fits your needs entirely.
on November 13th, 2008 at 2:37 pm
Hello, i’m having a bit of trouble with the following what someone said above, adding in your own text to the index.
I looked in includes > languadges > english > index.php and found the TEXT_MAIN var was already there, i tried just putting text straight into that with no luck, and also went and looked into english.php to try and find the variable related to that, but couldn’t see it
I also looked into just adding the html straight in, this seems like it would be perfect for me, as 99% of my viewers read the site in english anyway.
Where in the index.php am I supposed to add the code? could you give me a snippet of code to look out for, and put my text in before / ater this?
Thanks
on November 14th, 2008 at 4:47 am
You have to add the text in the TEXT_MAIN constant and then use < ?php echo TEXT_MAIN; ?> in the index.php to echo that text in the index page. Pay attention that there is an if statement which displays the page when the site loads and also displays the categories/subcategories.
I hope this makes sense to you.
