Thanks

WOW I must say this is Fantastic work. I have it installed but not yet configured but will certainly be putting it up and online soon. I will definitely need a color change (Grass Green) to match my website products as we deal with Outside Decoratives.
As everyone else stated Thanks for this great Theme and Thanks for making it Free. Some people cannot afford some of the finer themes as they are just starting out like we are, but this makes it even that much better. I would like to see a Donations link to at least be able to donate something for your HARD WORK and looking out for the ones who cannot afford the higher end themes.

Thanks Ron. We really appreciate your kind words about our product. This theme is completely free to use and our main idea was to help magneto users to make their stores looks different from default magento for free. We understand that many small store owners can’t afford paying for commercial themes from start. Also we are planning to deliver this theme in 9 colors this week. Our psd is also easy to edit so almost everyone can change color of template in few minutes.
Ron, thank you very much for your kind word. We are really glad to help people all around the world with this theme and we really don’t want to make money from it. So the best thing you can do is to spread good word about our work.
I just installed your template but the slider isn’t showing. How do I get it to display? Thanks!
Have you set 3 column layout for home page?
I have showcase enabled and layout set to 3 columns and I am still missing the slide bar. Everything else looks great. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Hello Ben, please provide link to your store.
I am also having the same problem. I installed the theme but the slider is not showing. I have set to three column but still the problem exist
I cannot get the slider to show images, either.
OMG! It was the Fontis editor that was changing the code and preventing the slider from working–as well as the payments gif from showing up. May I suggest that disabling the Fontis editor should be added to the instruction document? Great template, in any case.
I have had the same issue of the wysiwig editor rewriting the slider static code block.
I am NOT using Fontis however but rather just the default editor that is installed with my version of Magento 1.4.0.1
Any tips on turning the default editor off while I add the code block ?
with thanks
J
OK, not sure why this took me so long to find but the default WYSIWYG editor was causing the same problem in version 1.4.0.1 as Fontis was.
Disabled in SYSTEM>CONFIGUATION>GENERAL>CONTENT MANAGEMENT>WYSIWYG
works great now - many thanks.

Gerard, Please check static block ’showcase’. It should be enabled in admin.
How do you add items to the navigation bar?
Please check ‘menu’ staic block. Categories tree is created by magento.
What program do you recommend for editing the .PSD files?
Any tips/tricks in doing so?
If you don’t have photoshop you can try using gimp. It’s free to use and should understant psd format.
Hey, wicked template…. but doesn’t seem to quite work for me. Installed as per instructions but the products are not showing up in the center column.
Please set products as new in magento admin.
Geoff, you should set products as new in admin to show them on main column.
Hi templatemaster, thanks for the great template, will be cutsomising it alot in the next few days! just a quick question, but it all displays okay, until i click off the home page.. then strangly the top banner dissalignes etc.
any suggestions?
What problem do you have?
Great template, up and running with no problems, only one problem.
On the homepage I get the top level categories in the menu (furniture, apparel, etc) but on others I just get ‘Products’ and the whole category structure is pushed down one step
How can I stop this?
This template top menu was modified so no it can have unlimited number of top categories. You should edit /app/design/frontend/default/f002/templates/catalog/navigation/top.phtml to set it back to default view.
i am new in magento, thanks for template
i have same issue that top menu don’t show new categories at all, only home and product, how i add category there?? you say: make default” how? what and where to write?
and please one more: how i change theme color??
thanks
Ran, please check your categories structure. Your categories should be added as child to your root categories. Additional colors are not available for 1.4 yet
Many thanks for a great template! Well designed and instructions were a piece of cake, provided you did everything to the letter.
Also, it’s refreshing to see JS (slider) used to bring a little pop to Magento’s otherwise static template. I’m sure I’ll find some paying clients that I will use your templates for in the future.
When you start browsing through categories, it shows shopping options, color and price, how do I change those to brand and other custom options?
I think you are talking about layered navigation. You can find out more about it here http://www.magentocommerce.com/media/screencasts/layerednavigation/view
Many many thanks for a great-looking template. I have a question regarding the menu static block -
If I want to show different menus for two separate stores, how and where should I change the settings?
Thanks in advance.
I tried to install this theme, but the new products does not show always.
You should check if you have any product set as new in adminhttp://blog.templates-master.com/wp-admin/edit-comments.php?p=10#comments-form.
I found that to get the New Products block to show you have to set any higher-level categories as anchors.
how do I change the shopping options to brand and other custom options?
This is a great theme! Thank you so much for making it a freebie! I was trying to make the ‘blank’ theme into something as I couldnt’ afford to purchase a template from a designer at this time, and after a frustrating week I find this little gem!!
So easy to change into my own colour scheme (even if I did have to just guess and keep using trial and error on a couple of things) and so simple to install and understand.
There is only ONE question that I have tho:
How on earth do I change the colour of the footer from the grey colour it is now? For the life of me I cannot find it! And I know it’s goign to be something really simple, right!?!
Thanks so much again! Perhaps one day, I’ll be able to afford a custom designed template from you
Victoria
Hello Victoria, you should edit reset.css line 29
body { background:#808080 none repeat scroll 0 0;PS - If anyone is trying to change footer color in one of the additional colors - don’t pull your hair out by going to the reset.css. Go to the bottom of the custom.css page and change it there.
//March 13, 2009 at 6:46 am
Hello Victoria, you should edit reset.css line 29
body { background:#808080 none repeat scroll 0 0;
//
That worked perfectly! Thanks!
That worked a treat! Thank you so much - totally recommended!
Hello!
I just install the Classic Theme in my LOCALHOST (Wamp). But is running very slow (3 times slower the the Default Theme). Is there something that i can do to make it run faster, because is a great Theme???
Thanks in advance
It’s first time somebody reported such issue to us. We have not modified any magento core files so most likely it isn’t template issue.
First off, I would like to say “Great Job!!” This is a very nice template. I am just getting started, so the price was very nice as well. I can tell you the price has bought you some loyalty as well. When I can afford the other templates, I know where I will be going!!
I do have a question though, how do I change the logo? I changed it, but then the background doesn’t match, so I am sure I am not doing something right. I downloaded the trial version of Paint Shop Pro, but am not sure I understand how to edit the PSD file right. Do you know of any tutorials on that?
Great Job Guys!!
The logo should be a gif file (or PNG for better quality). If you open the images file and find the logo.gif open that in paint shop and edit it the way you want you only have to save it and reload it to your images directory.
If you’re on about the Sliders, then you need to open up the slider(1,2,3 or 4).jpg and edit that.
That’s the simpiest way I can tell you how to do it without getting into the psd files (you need Photoshop to edit them.).
Hey Template Monster!!!
My site is finished if you want to look at what I did with your template… perhaps with your free template section you should have a showcase of what people have done (or not) to show the versitility of your templates!
Victoria
This template looks great. I have one issue that I haven’t been able to figure out yet.
With the default template I am able to have two stores and switch between them with a drop down in the footer. This was in the code already. I haven’t been able to get that with this template. I’m new to Magento (we’re switching over from another cart) so I don’t know if there is some setting that I’m missing or if it isn’t possible.
I saw the comment above, and layered navigation is not what I’m after. I want two stores within the same website because they focus on different products but I want to share customer information.
Please let me know if I can do this. Thanks for a great looking template.
Hi Everyone,
I really love this theme. I’m so glad I found it!
I am hoping that someone on here can answer a couple questions for me:
1. I want to rename the Product button to Servers.
2. I don’t want drop down menus. I want the customer to click on that button and have it go to the server list page. Right now, it keeps loading the home page.
3. Since I don’t want drop down menus, how do I get new root categories to show up on the menu bar. Right now, I can create them in the Magento Admin but nothing shows up on the bar or anywhere else on the site.
Thanks everybody!!!
~ Luke
i’ve installed and everything is working well except the front page is only showing 4 new products. i have about 14 products set to new in admin, and i’ve changed the core file default new products to 13 (as the default 5 was showing 4, i’d like to show 12).
any ideas?
Hi,
how did you do it? I was trying to do the same
without luck. I tried to use the switcher coder
from default template in the footer.phtml but
it did not work.
Sorry, meant to reply to the Post after this one.
Nevermind, we figured everything out.
Thanks!
very nice just what i needed. i am tyring to figure out how i can modify the top menu bar “home / products / about us/ …etc” .. how can i get rid of it and just have the menu that i created when i was using the magento demo store?? or if you just want to tell me which files i need to edit to maybe add and remove items to this top menu?? thanks
how can i edit the menu bar that you template creates? the menu with home / products / about us/ testimonials/ etc…? how can i add/remove them and how can i even get rid of it so that i have the original menu from when i first installed meagento demo?
i figured the menu bar out a little bit, i see that some of the static block make up the menu and i understand that part, but i really want to just have all my products listed under the “products” section to go back to being the menu , like it was with the magento demo?
i am having another issue. when i click on any of my products and it takes me to that products page or section, it is defaulting to the standard mengato template?? i checked in admin and under General\Design\themes and i set all settings to f002, which is the template i am using. home page works great, just not the products.
Most likely you assigned default theme to this products or categories.
Great theme but I’m still having a problem getting the new products to display in the center column. I end up with either the original theme products or no products at all, not even the title bar “New Products”
It’s not clear to me how I can set the home page to display the new products from your advice to “set products as new in your store admin”
-Thanks
Hi Everyone, this template looks great !!!!
I installed successfully the “Free Magento Classic Theme”. And the same works usually on the my initial front home page.
My only problem is:
When i click a product or a category, it is shown with the default template and not with “Free Magento Classic Theme”.
I have to do some setting to change the template of categories and products to “Free Magento Classic Theme”?
Best regards,
Sorry for my english !! I’m from Brazil !!
#1 Please check if f002 template set as default in config.
#2 Please check your default categoires theme. It should be empty or it will override default config setting.
How do you move the product categories from left column to right column?
Nevermind, I fixed it by adding this to the Custom Design XML of the Home page:
Hello,
Thanks for this work! Really nice and still simple theme!
I have two questions, I know that they aren’t really connected to your theme, but maybe these are very easy questions for you:
1) How can I add left sidebar (catalog) to product page?
2) I added static page to one cataloge page, but it shows also on its cataloge sub-menu - I dont want that, how can I remove that?
Thanks a million again!
Kristjan
ok i fixed all my previous issues i posted :). i am now trying to figure out how to edit color of the text in the header and footers?? as well as the light gray background of the middle section where the actual products and cart is??
i have looked in all css files and played around with settings. i was able to change color of some of the text in top right corner of the header area but not the welcome message. i could not find the text color for the text in the footer as well as the background color surrounding the tables for the actual products/cart area.
ok i figured out the header and footer stuff from my previous post. i also figured out how to replace content-bg.gif it was a small gray gradient… but the rest of the background that is below where content-bg.gif was locate is a gray color, i assume it is set in some of the css files and i assume it is set somewhere in box.css but there is so many options there. i am trying to make my background one color, a brown, and this section is the last one that is still gray from the original config i d/l. i just can’t figure out where the color is set, if it is in a table section in box.css or where???
sorry for so many posts i hope this is last one
I have noticed a compatibility issue with the new Windows Explorer 8. The top navigation bar disappears when you hover the mouse over the heading, moving left to right and visa versa. When you click on the compatibility view button built into windows explorer 8 the problem is fixed and it displays correctly. The problem is majority of people don’t know about the compatibility button at the top right. Is it possible to get this fixed?
Also is it possible for the left Store Catalogue to display on every page including product pages?

Thanks for reporting bug. We will check. Strange thing is that it worked perfectly in IE8 Beta. If you want to show full categories tree on all pages please move this code tag group.
Hi I am getting same issue with ie8 menu hovering.
http://freedemo.templates-master.com/f002#
I am trying to fix this if I do I will post the fix. I am new to Magneto but experienced developer
oki doks … don’t ask why though because I didn’t go through the logic yet but here is a solution for hovering bug in ie8
each and every li must have these onmouseout=”toggleMenu(this,0)” onmouseover=”toggleMenu(this,1)” attributes.
modify home from template phtml and modify menu static block.
hope it helps
~ nrg
Hello Kristian, sorry what issue with IE8 do you have?
Hi
just implemented my first f002 template, but the header looks like
“” and the menus are looking like ….
Previous
Stop
Start……………..etc
what’s wrong?
here is what i have as menu…
”
Previous
Stop
Start“
and again …
///
///
///
/// Previous
/// Stop
/// Start
Thanks for this wonderful template!
I was wondering how to change the number of new items that show up on the home page?
I want six to show up, but only 5 are displaying even though I set well over 10 items to new.
regarding my post about gray gradient background and content-bg.gif . i d/l a program that would read the color of any pixel on the screen and found the color for the pixel on the gray back ground which was e9ecee. i then searched all css files and found it in boxes.css see below for the line…
.middle-container { background: #e9ecee url(../images/content-bg.gif) repeat-x 0 0; padding: 13px 0; }
i already changed the color of the file content-bg.gif to what i needed it to be, so i then updated background color from e9ecee to ffffff or whatever i please. but still the background color is that gray color????
yes i do have cache turned off
any ideas? this is my last post i promise after this my eshop has the look that it needs.
Light gray background for content is set at .middle-container boxes.css (line 374) and dark grey for footer set at body reset.css (line 29).
Hi
just implemented my first f002 template, but the home page shows only what is shown in the installation. –content — and also the showcase is only showing the following:
div id=”slider”>
div class=”slidercontrolwr”>
div class=”slidercontrol”>
a href=”#” class=”aprev” title=”Previous” onclick=”my_glider.previous();return false;”>Previous
a href=”#” class=”astop” title=”Stop” onclick=”my_glider.stop();return false”>Stop
a href=”#” class=”aplay” title=”Play” onclick=”my_glider.start();return false”>Start
a href=”#” class=”anext” title=”Next” onclick=”my_glider.next();return false”>next…………….
Thank you for your help
I had this same problem — I ended up having to turn off the WYSIWYG editor in — System - Config - Content Managment — set it to completely disabled.
I then went back and re-entered all my information.
You can also try clicking the wysiwyg button to “disable” it but I found that the wysiwyg editor is adding in code in other places that was screwing me up so I just totally disabled it.
Hello!
Very Interesting post! Thank you for such interesting resource!
PS: Sorry for my bad english, I’v just started to learn this language
See you!
Your, Raiul Baztepo
Thanks for the solution - worked a treat.
One more thing that has been bugging me for weeks:
How can you change the top navigation to show only 2 levels?
Much appreciated.
Regards
There is configuration field in magento admin where you can set depth of navigation Configuration > Catalog > Category Top Navigation > Maximal Depth.
Hi, thanks for the great theme.
Could someone please explain to me how i can get the categories on the left, i have tried all sorts but no joy.
Regards
Lee
You should have active categories tree selected as default for you active store in admin. Also you should setup home page according to installation instruction.
@TemplatesMaster, where do i activate categories tree within the admin?
It’s cool i have sorted it out now.
just a couple of things thou is there anyway to make the nav on the left show up on every page and also would it be possible to configure the left nav so it is collapsable as i have rather a lot of categories and sub categories.
Lee
Thanks for a wonderful template that is very easy to modify! I only have a little issue. The header on the sidebar nav doesn’t show on my main category pages. See the image of the issue here:
Anyone else seeing this and know a fix to make the header show properly?
Thanks!
stripped out my image, but it’s located at http://vernlib.com/Picture1.png
Please wait for 1-2 days and we will release fixed version compatible with Magento 1.3.
TemplatesMaster:
Can you upload the sql database file from your demo ?
Im new to this Magento platform. Kindly provide me with the sql file for me learn how to fully utilize this CMS. I dont even know how to make the product shows in navigation.
Thanks in advance.
Templates can be set on any store. It doesn’t require any sql to install. We do have standard magento sample data installed.
Can you tell us the procedure for exporting the header in the psd file to a slice that is used for the header-bg?
Also for the logo region. I was wanting to change the header color.
I was hoping to keep the nice shading you did.
Looking forward to the template update too.
Thanks for the free template. It’s nice to learn Magento with a nicer template than the stock ones.
I figured out how to export slices. But the I could not figure out the logo slices.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
I tried to install it on v1.3 but it goes wrong, is it not compatible yet?
Very nice template
Thanks for the cool template! I installed it according to the instructions. Everything works great except I’m getting this weird message in the center column on the home page.
bundle bundle/catalog_product_price bundle/catalog/product/price.phtml showcase
Do I need to edit that file in any way? I tried setting the products as new in admin, but that didn’t do the trick.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Oooops…made a dumb mistake. Fixed and it’s working great! Looks super nice! Thanks.
Great free template. I’m trying to add the sidebar menu to all my pages but have had no success. I notice that you replied “If you want to show full categories tree on all pages please move this code from main page to catalog.xml in tag group.” to DAZZA.
I tried adding the following line to catalog.xml located in app/design/frontend/f002/layout but had no joy.
Can anyone help? Maybe I’m missing something obvious.
Thanks
great work,
but im in trouble with IE 8 , nothing happens when buttons are clicked.
what can i do?
the same thing happens here
http://freedemo.templates-master.com/f002#
nothing happens when button is clicked under IE 8
Was you able to fix this issue? We have tested our demo site in ie8 and it works with out any problem.
TemplatesMaster on April 6th, 2009 8:41 pm
Please wait for 1-2 days and we will release fixed version compatible with Magento 1.3.
So when is will the new version be released?
It’s already released. Please check Magento connect.
Hi, thanks for this great free template.
After installing for version 1.3 I have a few words that are not translated into german (I have locale de_DE installed).
For example:
- upper right corner, grey text: “Your shopping cart is empty”
- grey hyperlinks on black background, above image slideshow:
“About us”, “Testimonials” and “Contact us”
all the other links are fine. how/where can I update these translations ?
Please use Magento inline translate for template translation. Also you should duplicate separate static block for each language.
You must change the file /f002/template/checkout/cart/header.cart.phtml
The lines:
0): ?>
__(’There is 1 item in your cart’) ?>
__(’There are %s items in your cart’, $_cartQty) ?>
__(’Your Shopping cart is empty.’, $this->getUrl(’checkout/cart’)) ?>
To your language…
Thanks for this theme.
I ‘m trying to translate the “Store catalog” words into french.
I tried with inline translation but I can’t select the words it is that normal ? How can we change it ?
It’s fixed in new template release.
First of all, thanks for the great templage, I’m editing it to suit my needs, but couldn’t have done it without you!
One thing I can’t seem to find: how do I remove the “call us toll free” and “free shipping” images? can’t seem to find them in the CMS> edit pages
thanks in advance,
DMR
You should remove next code from catalog.xml
<block type="core/template" after="-" name="left.permanent.callout-1" template="callouts/left_col.phtml">
<action method="setImgSrc"><src>images/media/col_left_callout-1.jpg</src></action>
<action method="setImgAlt" translate="alt" module="catalog"><alt>Our customer service is available 24/7. Call us at (800) DEMO-NUMBER.</alt></action>
<action method="setLinkUrl"><url>checkout/cart</url></action>
</block>
<block type="core/template" after="-" name="left.permanent.callout-2" template="callouts/left_col.phtml">
<action method="setImgSrc"><src>images/media/col_left_callout-2.jpg</src></action>
<action method="setImgAlt" translate="alt" module="catalog"><alt>Our customer service is available 24/7. Call us at (800) DEMO-NUMBER.</alt></action>
<action method="setLinkUrl"><url>checkout/cart</url></action>
</block>
Hi DMR,
they are images embedded into the skin.
I was able to replace the gifs with what suited me better.
you can find them in the skin folder.
@template master
thanks for your help. I was too stupid to find out that I had to edit CMS content to update my translation.
The inline translation worked find to translate the upper right shopping cart link. however there are two links … can I remove the grey one on the upper right side ?
and then I also have the same question as nicolas for “store catalog”
Any word on the update for magento 1.3? Also, I notice on ie6, the li tag’s background of the active state turns white. Will there be a fix for this as well? Thanks again for a superior template.
-r
Thanks for free template!!! You guys are doing great job here!!
But I have problem after I change theme color,all my pruducts front pictures are gone but when click products detail the pictures still there.Can you tell how to fix the problem.Thanks
@TemplateMaster
could you please explain in detail what you mean when you said
“If you want to show full categories tree on all pages please move this code from main page to catalog.xml in tag group.”
Kind Regards
hello Template Master,
First of thanks for such a quality Template. I was wondering if it is possible to have the same top tool bar for the categories like on the original template and keep the categories on the left side at the same time ? I have many product categories and would be nice not to have them all under just the one “products tab” .
Thanks,
Tim
please ignore my last post i found answer up top . some how i must have missed it or maybe i just need to take a brake from my computer for a little bit.
How do i add products to the home page, as nothing is showing up.
Thanks
@TemplateMaster
I’ve installed the newest version and some problems are fixed, but there are still some problems that haven’t been fixed:
1. Store Catalog - cannot be changed using Magento’s inline translation tool (noticed by others as well).
2. The Category Box is still broken.
Kind Regards,
Frank D.
We just fixed this issues. You can simply update files at /app/design/frontend/f002/catalog/navigation/*.*
StoreCatalog rename is located in : sidebar.phtml
….
/app/design/frontend/default/f002/template/catalog/navigation/sidebar.phtml
change to :
__(’name your Store Catalog change’) ?>
cheers
martin
Thanks for the reply stevedupont! I did find the images, so I can change them, but I would actually want to remove them alltogether. How can I achieve this? I tried changing stuff in the catalog.xml, but this doesn’t do anything.
@ Templatemaster:
I would also really like to show the full categories tree on all pages, so I have the same question as Lbeetles..
Thanks again!
DMR
Hello, please help me… when i click on root category menu style is bad - look here http://vektorshop.cz/why.png. Thank you!
I would like to add the newsletter box back in on the right side. Can you help with that.
Also, I have a number of Menu Options on the left and would like to collapse the categories if possible.
OK i got the categories across the top but i lost them on the side . how can i make it so i have both ?
LOL i got it. I forgot to set layout ‘3 columns’ at ‘custom design’ tab on home page . once again thank you so much for the beautiful free template
Templates Master, you should set up a forum to discuss issues with all your great templates. this should be better than discussing it here in the comments section. it’s just a proposal
I have one question regarding product’s page,
how the products page is set up, is this done via the template ?
for one of my products, I have 5 pictures. but only the first picture is visible in the window with the zoom slider.
If I select another image, it does not show in the inline window,
it opens in a pop up window
can this be changed so that it shows in the zoom-window ?
We would recommend using magento forum to ask “How to do” questions. Unfortunately we can’t answer all questions here.
Yes product page is set up with template. But we have not changed template for media block. So it use default magento behavior. We would recommend setting up light box module for better users experience.
Awesome theme!!!…but I’m having issues trying to get the home and extra links to have an active state. can somebody please help me or guide me the right path. Thanks
Hey, this update is great!
Thank 
Ouuu, in Opera is not rount edge
Why? O:-)
Round edges designed using css3 styles that supported only in Firefox for now.
nice theme. I installed 1.1.1 via Magento Connect Manager, but I can only find the blue theme.
I downloaded the 9 extra colors from this site, but there weren’t any installation instructions in the zip file.
How do I get the other colors in Magento 1.3.0?
Simply copy files from selected color directory over installed template.
Really nice theme, finally one with item categories on the left.
Unfortunately it has not expandable/collapsable categories like http://dinprofil.icommerce.se/ (site is in swedish - but one can see what I mean).
With a lot of categroies and subcategories they must me expandable for user to manage it.
Is it possible to show the main categories in the main menu bar and not under “products”? The customer wants to have all the 6 menu-buttons in main-nav and “products” should not be shown. What must be done and is it possible?
You should edit /app/design/frontend/default/f002/templates/catalog/navigation/top.phtml.
Instead of
<li onmouseover="toggleMenu(this,1)" onmouseout="toggleMenu(this,0)">
<a href="<?php echo $this->getUrl('') ?>"><?php echo $this->__('Products') ?></a>
<ul>
<?php foreach ($this->getStoreCategories() as $_category): ?>
<?php echo $this->drawItem($_category) ?>
<?php endforeach ?>
</ul>
</li>
please paste
<?php foreach ($this->getStoreCategories() as $_category): ?><?php echo $this->drawItem($_category) ?>
<?php endforeach ?>
I have put the code in de top.phtml so that not only menu products is shown but also the other things in that menu. But unfortunately it does not work.
i put this code as shown by you
getStoreCategories() as $_category): ?>
drawItem($_category) ?>
into the page and deleted the other code.
I use magento version 1.4.01 and i use you template 1.4.0
what did i do wrong?
sorry, it works!
sorry, i does not work properly.
i only see the right navigation when i click on the menu products and i click on my site on “ontwerpen”.
When i click on ‘Home” the navigation is as it was
it works! thanks!
Does no one have a answer for my question?
Superb work for a colorful theme. Tested with Magento 1.3.1 and french translation : everything works, I am astonished by the overall elegance and the slider !
Also tried the twek for your comment on April 19th, 2009 - 4:05pm, and it works perfectly also !
Thanks for this great and free contribution.
Hello,
I have installed the template. Everything seems to work fine. However, after following the instructions and setting the HomePage page to as I outlined in the installation instructions, I just get a blank column with no products listed. I guess that anticipated result. How can I get the products displayed in the middle column ?
We have answered same question for several times. Please set product as new.
Hi, at first
thanks for this great Theme!
I have Posted on Magento Forum: http://www.magentocommerce.com/boards/viewthread/39550/
Thx for answer
Awesome Theme. 5*s
Just got a couple of questions:
1. In the screen shot you have numbers instead of play,stop and previous and next buttons on the slider.
I would prefer it like that, how would i go about doing this?
2. How would i remove the newsletter signup box from the footer?
3. How would i go about implentmentating a new products section on the front page like the screenshot?
Many thanks in advance!
Thanks Craig,
1. There is no quick fix for now. Javascript slider and slider html code should be a bit different. We are planning to release later both slider modifications.
2. You should edit /app/design/frontend/default/f002/templates/page/html/footer.phtml
3. Please set products as new in admin.
Hello Amy,
You can control links that will go after products dropdown in admin. Please check if your cache set off.
Hi,
I just noticed something else, the change for the top menu did take place but only on category pages. Not on any other pages. Is there any way for me to fix that.
thanks
Amy
Hi again!
At this moment I’m trying to alter the text in the bottom which indicates the newsletter.
I’ve tried changing
.mini-newsletter h4 { }
to
.mini-newsletter h4 {color: #e2d21c; }
but no joy!
How do i change this h4 text?
Thanks in advance
DMR
Please edit You /app/design/frontend/default/f002/templates/page/html/footer.phtml
I tried to download the theme but it has damage files (corrupted). Is there another download site where I can download this awesome theme??
Please try again. We just donwloaded this theme without any problem.
Hey… ehm… Pages from “menu” statick block aren’t showing… only “start” and “products”…..
By the way, thank you! thank you! very much for this, it’s awesome.
Hello Alain, You should create this pages in admin with corresponding url-keys.
How do I implment “Catalog search terms block” on the homepage of the template?
Great Templates
Is there a Photoshop action batch that you use which can flatten, cut up and then export with the correct name the color and graphic changes I make to the psd file? I just did a new logo and I had to eyeball it… Not a big deal, but would be pretty nice.
Yes please check for links in the blog post. You can download psd files from our server.
How do I show popular products?
How to show left menu in all pages?
How to add advertisement pictures on left and right column?
Jennifer, they are declared in catalog.xml file. Please look for left.permanent.callout-1 and left.permanent.callout-2 boxes declared.
Both static blocks “menu” and “showcase” do not appear in my homepage. I alaready enabled them in admin. What is the problem ?
Please check if they are enabled and have right names.
I don’t see any item in my ’store catalog’. What should I do to be able to display this in homepage ?
Thank you for your great job!
I have a little issue. My test shop consists of two categories and 1-2 products in each of them. But “shop-by” block does not appear in one of them, although all categories settings are identical.
How to fix it? Is it template issue or core issue?
Do you have this block on default theme?
First of all let me thank you for a high quality theme!
I have tried searching the forum over at Magento for a solution but with no luck. I have installed the theme and it works just like the one provided on your demo site. What I would like to do though is to keep the vertical menu when navigating to the different categories/products. What happens when I navigate to a category/product is that the vertical menu is gone and replaced with another one.
I have posted a similar post on the Magento forum. I would really appreciate if someone could point me in the right direction
- Ole
Ole, we do use simple block for vertical navigation on main page. Inner pages use original layered navigation boxes. Please check for catalog.sidebar box in home page xml and move it to catalog.xml. You can try using our vertical navigation or try installing http://www.magentocommerce.com/extension/763/vertical-navigation-with-css-classes.
Where is the link for the “Photoshop action batch”? I looked on every blog-ish thing I could find and did not see it.
I have already downloaded the psd files.
Thanks.
We don’t have it but you can easily export slices from psd file.
Is it possible to have a link for each slider image?
It could be useful to have a slide connected to a particular product or offer.
Thank you
Muri, please showcase static block. You should set url for each slide instead of “#”.
Nevermind: I found it myself!
Go to Admin -> CMS -> static blocks and edit showcase XML!
Thanks for the great template!
BTW, it seems I can’t display more than 5 new object in home page.
I checked in “configuration”, tired to change items number with no luck!
I meant “tried”, not “tired”
SLIDER not working? I TRIED over & over adding the code to

Really like your theme…
We’ve noticed on the “Electronics” page that the title bars don’t align correctly with the containers below. Is this a mistake in our installation or a bug in the theme?
Also we’ve noticed that when Magento runs it requests image files from the …/f002/images folder that don’t appear to exist:
Example:
/skin/frontend/default/f002/images/bkg_products-grid3.gif
Is this a problem with the way we’ve installed the theme (everything appears correct as far as we can tell)?

I just instal free template and have Warning: Mage_Core_Block_Template … error page. I suppose I did executed instruction properly or template is maybe not compatible with Magento 1.3.1 ?

What about the left menu? How to show left menu in all pages?
You should move next code from home page xml:

Hi,
First great template.
It is possible to set more then one link in the showcase?
Each slide is simple html code. You can put any html code here with any amount of links.
Great theme!
1. How can I change the links in the footer (advanced search, sitemap and so on…) ?
2. How can I put in images below the footer links easiest, want to show payment options. I can’t get your payments.gif logo to show up.
3. Can I edit the menu to the left on the index side, so that they only show the first catalog?
Thanks!
All links declared in template xml files. There is no easy way to change them.
Payment icon in this template was codded using static blocks (please go to admin and check static block “payments”). You can put any content in it.
You can simply edit css files and hide all childs categories.
Just change
getChildHtml(’footer_links’) ?>
to
getLayout()->createBlock(’cms/block’)->setBlockId(’footer_links’)->toHtml();?>
in footer.xml
Then add whatever links you want in your CMS -> footer_links block
Muri,
I’ve just been trying to solve the issue where only 5 items are shown on the first page as new too. Here are my findings.
1. You need to make sure you have some products with current new dates. This is done in the admin using manage products.
2. You need to change the default number which is located in one of the standard installation files so make sure you have a backup.
app\code\core\Mage\Catalog\Block\Product\New.php
change number of new products in the line
const DEFAULT_PRODUCTS_COUNT = 5;
to whatever you want it to be.
Regards Russell
Russel thanks for your help. Right now we use even better way to do this. Instead of this code on home page xml:
<block type="catalog/product_new" name="home.product.new" alias="product_new" template="catalog/product/new.phtml"><action method="addPriceBlockType">
<type>bundle</type>
<block>bundle/catalog_product_price</block>
<template>bundle/catalog/product/price.phtml</template>
</action>
</block>
Please use:
<block type="catalog/product_new" name="home.product.new" alias="product_new" template="catalog/product/new.phtml"><action method="setProductsCount"><count>12</count></action>
<action method="addPriceBlockType">
<type>bundle</type>
<block>bundle/catalog_product_price</block>
<template>bundle/catalog/product/price.phtml</template>

Hi,
first off all, thanks for this great theme!
I’m trying to remove the image zoomer and replace it with Lightbox.
I found this (1) thread, but it seems the file paths are somewhat different. Any idea on how to do this in this magento classic theme?
thanks for any help!
(1) http://www.magentocommerce.com/boards/viewthread/24508/
Pat.
There is no problem with installing light box on this theme. You can check http://www.magentocommerce.com/wiki/adding_lightbox_to_magento_v2 for detailed info.
I would like to know how much you would charge for the template if we would like to remove the footer tag line: Magento Theme by Templates Master.
Thanks.
Please forgive me, but I do not see the install instructions in the download. Can you please point me to them?
Please check in full package for install.txt http://freedemo.templates-master.com/downloads/f002.classic.zip
Hey I am trying out this template but I can’t seem to get the footer right
Somehow the footer is huge, I changed the height of the footer and footer-container to about 20px but nothing happens. I can’t seem to find the reason why my footer is so big.
Can anyone help me please?
Thanks a lot!
Here you can see what I have right now:
http://www.stickersonline.eu/home
Footer is removed right now and we can’t check what is wrong.
First of all: great theme! This is by far the best looking free theme available.
I’m also wondering how to add additional links next to Site Map, Search Terms, Advanced Search and Contact Us in the footer area.
I cannot figure out which files to edit. I found several files that I think are used to build the footer area, but so far all my attempts failed.
Altough it looks like there are more people on this site with the same issue, I still didn’t find the right way to do this. I was also unable to find a solution in the forum at the official Magento website.
Can somebody please help me out?
You can put something like this into default groupd of catalog.xml or any cms.xml
<default>....
<reference name="footer_links">
<action method="addLink" translate="label title">
<label>Customer Service</label>
<url>customer-service</url>
<title>Customer Service</title>
<prepare>true</prepare>
</action>
</reference>
@TemplatesMaster
It worked!
Thank you very much for your help
What i now miss is the language-switch. The files are not in the f002 directory like default-template.
Is it possible to activate the flags from default-Template? What must be done?
What is your store url? Store view switcher is default part of this template header.
Thanks Russel,
Dumb me, it was in the installation istructions
I have set about 50 new items and I set main to have 12 new items. I found that the new items on main page is not randomly pick from the 50. It show the same everytime… it’ll be good if it’ll pick from all the new items list and randomly show it…
You can try editing app\code\core\Mage\Catalog\Block\Product\New.php.
->addAttributeToSort('news_from_date', 'desc')Hi templates-master,
first off, thank you so much for the awesome free theme. It’s made the magento experience relativly painless so far.
I have a question that’s hopefully simple to answer. I have searched the magento how to boards for an answer, and have not found what Im looking for.
I want to change the header size on my site. I want it to be deeper than the default size, (it should be 250 pix deep). I also don’t want the backgrounds to extend off the store, so it should be a maximum of 950 wide. can this be done? what files do I need to edit?
cheers
Dannie
preview the site at: http://fortheloveofpets.co.nz
We can’t give you exact solution but we would suggest you to install Firebug extension for Firefox. You will be easily locate and try changing css styles on your site.
TemplatesMaster,
Can u give some example?
I’m not sure what to edit at the:
“You can try editing app\code\core\Mage\Catalog\Block\Product\New.php.
->addAttributeToSort(’news_from_date’, ‘desc’)”
Please advice, thank you.
I successfully set up the theme but I encountered a problem which I’m not sure if it’s with the theme or magento.I can only click on the Dashboard menu on the Admin Panel, all the other menus are no longer be clicked. Please help me out guy! Thanks!
Please check permissions on javascript folders.
Great theme, 2 questions. I am unable to get the catalog to display to the left under “Store Catalog” and also the “Products” button just takes you back to the home page, anyway to fix this? Thanks for the help!
What is your store url?
It’s a lovely Magento theme mate!
I’ve listed your theme on http://www.cmstheme.net/theme/magento/classic.html

How can i make Sub-Categories visible in the middle column?
You should check magento site for extension to do this.

Can you send us link to your store?
Is this compatible with the latest 1.3.1.1 release–I installed 1.3.1 fine–but on the same server 1.3.1.1 has problems with the slider showing up–I think
Slider problem can’t be caused by 1.3.1 version magento. Please check what else was made wrong.
Thank you so much for such a wonderful template. I do have a couple questions, on my homepage the right section is not positioned correctly so it is pushed below the center field. How do I evenely position them? In addition none of the new products are showing up.
Thank you very much you guys are awesome!
dears,

i downloaded f002.classic.9.colors compressed file but there are no instructions there??

You should assign root category in admin for your default store.
thanks for your help the other day regarding changing the height of the header section.
I added a height specification to .header-top (line 353) and added a top padding specification to .header-nav-container on line 374
I have a new problem, that should be an easy fix. I only want my wrapper to be 932px wide, but still centred on the page.
I changed the line .wrapper { min-width:930px;}
to .wrapper { width:932px;} and it works, but I also want it to be centred on the page. What’s the additional css command I should include?
I tried .wrapper {
width:932px; background-position: center;}
but had no joy
Hi TemplatesMaster,
This is a truly great theme!
How do I get the image slider to show up on the product category pages though?
At the moment, it is showing up on my home page, but I would like it to show on the category product pages too.
Also, is it possible to have 2 versions of the slider displaying 2 different sets of images? eg. One set of images on the ‘mens’ product category page and a different set of images on the ‘womens’ product category page?
many thanks for your help in advance!
Hello,
To make the category box to appear in all pages… I added the following code to catalog.xml:
Category now show in any category page. BUT it doesnt show in product detail page. How can I make it available on the left of the product detail page too? Please advice. Thank you.

Lesz
nevermind, found the answer… need to set product page to 3 column.

What Code do you have added? The same as is in the instructions.txt?
andy,
Add the following:
To /app/design/frontend/default/f002/layout/calalog.xml
Below the following code:
Andy,
I tried post the code… but this comment system remove it automatically. Do you know how to post code here?
Hi Lesz,
i think Code Posting is not permitted.
Can you send me the code via Mail?
Send it to classic@trash-mail.com
Thank You very mutch!
Fantastic template!
Looks better than good, the best free template out there!
I am using this template for my site, doesnt need alot of tweaking to get going! I love the slider!
One thing i wonder is if it is possible to install all of the colors and swap around them easily?
In case you want to assign different colors to different stores then you can simply create separate skin folders for each color. You should put defaul blue f002 skin files into it and copy over color skin files. After that you will be able to assign different skins to different stores with same layout files.
In case you want to assign different skins to different categories or CMS pages you should also duplicate layout folders. Because magento right now can assign only layouts to separate category.
…Oh yes, I forgot to ask something…
On the products page (pressed on a category from the homepage) the Store Catalog box dissapears, I wonder what file needs to be edited for it to continue to show up on the producs-page?
Fantastic work!
is this compatible with 1.3.1.1?
I have tryed a lot to install the grey version…
But didn’t work.
The layout just broken completely, mixing the default with the original.
And, the instructions to install it is not inside the files.
Does anyone know about some issue with Magento 1.3.1.1?
Well,
Now I have everything works fine.
Just the showcase its not working.
A created a block ’showcase’ but the home page returns bundle bundle/catalog_product_price bundle/catalog/product/price.phtml showcase
This error mean that you have not installed home page in right way. Please check xml instructions for home page.
How do i get rid of the magento classic logo.gif–I renamed it and get the alt text–where do I edit the html so I can remove
slider still not working in 1.3.1.1
You can set logo name in Magento config. Please check design tab at configuration panel.
I want to move the newsletter subscribe panel to the RHS column, under the MY CART section. How will I do that? I have turned off the tags panel and the poll panel so the space exists there.

Hi! Everything it;s working to me, except the “New products” in the main page it’s empty to me.
I already do this: CMS->Manage Pages: - add this to homepage content:
But don’t work… what I’m doing wrong?
Ops.. sorry! Ignore the the last post.
It’s working setting the products as new.
Thanks for this great template.
Hey
thanks for this theme.
can someone PLEASE explain is simple words how to change the skin color allowing to use different color for different store view ?
I tried several times w/o success.
First let me say that the Blue version is working file.
what I did was:
1. d/l the 9 colors file
2. duplicate the magento/app/design/frontend/default/f002
3. rename it for example to f002grey
4. admin->system->config->design
change the skin to f002grey
5. regresh chache and even delete it
Nothing happens, the blue is still presented.
I also tried to duplicate the magento/app/design/frontend/default/f002 and renamed it f002grey and changed all in the design to meet it and nothing,
is it so difficult for anyone to write a simple instruction how to do this correctly ?
Many thanks,Smith
You don’t need to duplicate colors or anything else. Simply copy ready sking files for color you like over installed blue version.
sorry, I forgot to add
3a, copy the grey files from the 9 color file OVER the ones in the duplicated directory.
AWESOME Theme! Thank you.
I have 2 quick questions,
1. The checkout button on the minicart. I haven’t found an image for that so I assume it is css. If I want to change the color of that specific button for some A/B testing. Where is that located please?
2. On additional images for the products with the popup window the background is grey and the navigation links get lost in the background. Where can I change the color of the popup background?
Thank you,
Jim
Thanks for the help–I love the theme…Just like everybody else does…
I installed the theme on version 1.3.2 and it doesnt save my sessions. Adding something to cart just disappear immediatly and users can’t log in.
If I switch to another template this is solved immediatly.
Moreover, if I switch back , the session remains until I clear cache and then it’s gone.
Sorry but most likely it isn’t template problem. We have never faced such problem. You can try setting your cache off.

Hi TemplatesMaster,
This is a great theme!
How do I get the image slider to show up on the product category pages though?
At the moment, it is showing up on my home page, but I would like it to show on the category product pages too.
Also, is it possible to have 2 versions of the slider displaying 2 different sets of images? eg. One set of images on the ‘mens’ product category page and a different set of images on the ‘womens’ product category page?
many thanks for your help in advance!
Luke, It’s possible of course. Please check move this code from home page xml to defaulttag group in catalog.xml for example.
<reference name="top_slider">
<block type="cms/block" name="showcase">
<action method="setBlockId">
<block_id>showcase</block_id>
</action>
</block>
</reference>
If you want to use different slider then you should change block_id for it.
how to remove the “testimonial” on the top menu?
Jennifer, please check static block “menu” in admin > cms > static blocks.

Are there any release notes? I would like to know what has changed before I decide to upgrade. Thanks.
We just upgraded template to 1.3.2 version. No other changes where done.
Hi, after changing the template, I realize that ‘Store Catalog’ shows all categories including sub-categories, how can I change it so it only shows the top level (the fist level under ‘default category’). Thanks
You can hide them with CSS.
i am an oil painting artist , i looking for M2 THEME for my artwork shop online.
I love the template but I still cannot get the catalog to show up on the left hand side.

How I can do that from menu I can call my new statick block (f.e. need to make like contact us work)
I create a Events in menu (in cms/static block/menu I add this)
but how for now make a link to a events static page without and products (only left menu)?
Great template! I was wondering how I can slow down the speed of the slider images on the first page - do I edit the js files or the static block?
Thanks so much!!
Please check showcase static block for next code var my_glider = new Glider(’slider’, {duration:0.5, autoGlide: false, frequency: 4, initialSection: ’section1′});
Is it possible to display multiple currencies on the left/right column?
Yes. You should enable several currencies and import exchange values using magento.

Please tell me how can I do a link to static block from menu navigation on the top (like contact us or about us) in this template??
Please check static block menu for additional links you have in header navigation. I think it’s easy to duplicate same link and change url.
<li><a href="{{store url="about"}}"><span>About Us</span></a></li>Excelente trabajo!!!!!
Yes i have enabled several currencies and import exchange values using magento. But it is not showing in my website. How to display multiple currencies selector?
Does it work for you with default theme?
ok, no answer for my 1st question, but I do this
Now I have another question: How can I input toplinks from the top to menu like Products. I edit top.phtml and add this block
<a href=”getUrl(”) ?>”>__(’My Profile’) ?>
<a href=”getUrl(”) ?>”>__(’My Account’); ?>
but how can I add all top link there and how should work getUrl because I don know what should I paste there
How can I add php code ? echo $this->getUrl(”)
for some reason i couldn’t change it back to default theme it shows error report/?id=-1159309273&s=default
I just need a currency selector in the f002 theme that’s all, is it possible?
Hi I managed to make the multiple currency selector show in the website, only when I put base curreny to USD and default display currecny to NZD, if other way round it is still not showing. Can I put both base currency and default display currency to NZD and allow some other currencies and still have the currency selector show in my website?
Hello Jennifer, probably currency exchange rates info was not imported. Please check currency exchange table.
Hi, may I know how I can shift the 2 banners from the left to the right sidebar as well as to change the alt text and destination url?
Also, is there a way to remove the “add to compare” function?
Thanks!
Hello Elizabeth.
You can edit this 2 banners and move them to the right column in template catalog.xml. Also you should edit several templates to remove compare function. Unfortunately it isn’t a module. Please check templates/catalog/product/list.html and check templates/catalog/product/view/addto.html
Another question, I tried to set the Menu back to the default but how can I keep the “home” and the static block of links?
getLayout()->createBlock(’cms/block’)->setBlockId(’menu’)->toHtml(); ?>
I tried but the links from the static block went to the grey area below the menu bar instead.
Having gone through the installation my website is displaying only the header and the Home and Products. The homepage is displaying three columns, 1 for the new products but its empty, there is no column showing the store catalogue like the original template. Is it also possible to frame the images for the products.
Got my slider on the homepage working now with the iphone but there are no products below the slider like in the original template
I have read here and there is advice to set products as new but I really need help, step by step guide of how to do this as I am having difficult to find the exact area in admin to set that up.
Also how do I get my store catalog to work and where do I change the color of the theme. Will it be in admin on in the theme file folder- if so which one do i need to change?
Hello Brown Flowers,
You should go to admin > catalog > manage products and open product you want to show on main page. You should set Set Product as New from Date for this product. IF you want to change color then you should download additional colors package from our blog and copy selected colors over installed blue theme.
Hi, I love your template and am very happy using it. Would it be asking too much to give me a brief explanation on how to create a new block in the left column? I have already created a new static block “fwltest” with my code.
Which is now the phtml file where I can insert the call for the cms/block and change the order of the poll and the tags block?
Thanks in advance, FrankW
Hello FrankW,
You should add next code to any xml file. For example to catalog.xml or cms.xml.
<block type="cms/block" name="banner" after="cms_page"><action method="setBlockId" ><block_id>fwltest</block_id></action>How do that vertical category menu on the homepage displays in all site pages?
i cant get the template to show up products, store catalog its empty and no products is being shown even i added loads of products on the panel
everything else is cool.
any help?
Hello Juanpablo, Have you assigned root category in admin > stores management to your default store?
HI, great template. one question, i use it for an german shop. the standard languaghe pack works fin but I hav in the right top corner the english text “items in your cart” and when i click there is a button “view cart” … please help me, where can I change this into german?
Hello Michael. Please use magento inline translation to translate non-translated words words http://www.magentocommerce.com/blog/video-in-line-translations/.
Hi i get this mistake if i check your demo webshop http://validator.w3.org on this page.
Line 566, Column 195: Attribute “alt” exists, but can not be used for this element.
…f=”http://templates-master.com” alt=”Magento Theme”> Magento Theme by Templat
✉
You have used the attribute named above in your document, but the document type you are using does not support that attribute for this element. This error is often caused by incorrect use of the “Strict” document type with a document that uses frames (e.g. you must use the “Transitional” document type to get the “target” attribute), or by using vendor proprietary extensions such as “marginheight” (this is usually fixed by using CSS to achieve the desired effect instead).
This error may also result if the element itself is not supported in the document type you are using, as an undefined element will have no supported attributes; in this case, see the element-undefined error message for further information.
How to fix: check the spelling and case of the element and attribute, (Remember XHTML is all lower-case) and/or check that they are both allowed in the chosen document type, and/or use CSS instead of this attribute. If you received this error when using the element to incorporate flash media in a Web page, see the FAQ item on valid flash.
What can i do?

Hi there,
Installed your Magento Theme. It works great. But when selecting a screenshot, the popup window creates an error. default/template/page/popup.phtml is missing. How can I solve this?
Regards,

Hello John, probably installation isn’t completed. We have never faced this problem.
Hello!
i got an problem over here… when i click on an link like My account or my Wish List i go to the old template. how do i change those buttons links?
Hello Araprint. Please check if your cache is set off and if you assigned f002 them in config.
hey manuel, I had the same problem with menu not appearing, try the following in magento admin:
System -> Cache Management -> Cache Control -> All Cache = Refresh.

How in the world do you install the templates when i downloaded no insctructions came with someone please help me
Hi! Thanks for the great Magento Template! I’m Having the same issue as another here. Everything is fine except the products do not show on the home page and I have no “drop down” menu categories under the “Products” link on the menu bar. I read the response to the previous poster but did not understand exactly what “set products as new in admin” means.
Thanks once again!
#1 You should go to admin > catalog > manage products and open product you want to show on main page. You should set Set Product as New from Date for this product.
#2 You should go to admin > system > magenage store and assign root category to your default store.
Follow up on my previous post on products not showing up on home page or anywhere for that matter! There ARE NO PRODUCTS in my Magento installation. No products and no categories! Were they supposed to be installed wth the Magento package?
Thanks again for the nice Magento Theme!
Hal
Hal, you should add products and categories. Default magento installation don’t have sample data included.
Hello, I try to ask again
Could you help how to do menu in all page not only in home page?
[...] We are proud to introduce first free professional Magento theme. More info and updates at our Magento theme blog. [...]
Hi, could you pls tell me why the left filterable layered navigation box has disappeared after installing this theme? Please note that I have added the original category block from the main page xml to the catalog xml, but it was not appearing even before that, I don’t think this should affect it?
Many Thanks
Hello Chris. We have not faced this problem before and template was not designed to change layered navigation box.
Please excuse my ignorance. Does the slideshow shown in the demo come with the download or is that something we need to source?
Patrick, You should complete installation instruction to enable sladshow.
Hey TemplatesMaster(s),
I am looking at disabling the cupons and the Estimate Shipping and Tax modules in the checkout area but I cant find the file i need to edit. In the default template i can remove the folowing code to get rid of the estimate shipping.:
getIsVirtual()): echo $this->getChildHtml(’shipping’);
endif; ?>
From the folowing file:
app\design\frontend\default\modern\template\checkout\cart.phtml
This file is not included i this theme.
Any clues? I would really apreciate it
Ole, please check checkout.xml. I think it’s possibly to turn off “Shipping estimate block” at least.
Hi there, do you mean “installation instructions” of Magento or the Template instructions.
If template instructions, where do I find them?
Patrick, please check blog post for download link.
[...] Magento Classic Theme is a clean and modern eCommerce template for Magento that is currently available for free download. You can find out more about the template and help with support at the author’s website. [...]
Hi there, it’s been rough but the site is slowly coming together. I was wondering how I change the “Additional Information” design table on the product pages. I understand that it is referencing a php file but do I edit the design through there? or is there a way to do this else where…? (maybe I don’t understand it as well as I’d hoped …hah)
Thanks!
- Charlotte
Hello Charlote, what exactly do you want to change here? The overall look is set by .data-table classes at boxes.css near line 250.
Hi, fantastic template and really looking forward to getting it ‘tweaked’ to suit my store. However I am having issues with the install and changing the colours, I must apologise as I am a newbie to magento but am keen to learn! Can you offer any help?? I can send you my site address and access details if you let me know where to send them too?? thanks a million in advance!
Chris, you should check installation instruction for this template. Right now you should do at least this steps:
- Please set home page layout to 3 column.
- Create all statick blocks and set them enabled.
- Go to admin, open any product and set it as new to show on main page.
Thanks TemplatesMaster, I found it
just had to diable to lines of code that called upon the two phtml sites
First of all let me thank you for a great theme!
I was wondering if you know how to change the width on my category pictures? The picture that stands over the products. The different (home_main_) callout pictures.
If you take a look at this link you will hopefully better understand what I am trying to explane. It now has a default width on 475 px. I would like to increase this so the picture fits the middle area completely:
http://www.magentocommerce.com/?ACT=25&fid=16&aid=8103_FnNRTo3HVSAgMczzwmyv&board_id=1
Regards,
Håkon
Hello Håkon, You should copy and edit next file from default template folder app\design\frontend\default\default\template\catalog\category\view.phtml. Please check for width=”475″ and remove it. All categories pictures will be show in original format.
I was so glad when I saw your theme, excellent job guys.
Is it possible to get the slider to start playing automatically without needing to click on the play button, or hover over it etc, just want it to play as soon as the homepage has loaded.
Thank you in advance
Hello Mark, please check showcase static block and replace autoGlide: false with autoGlide: true.
Hi, could you please tell me how to make the left Store Catalog collapsible? ie only show the main categories and make them expandable?
Many Thanks!
Hello Chris, I think the better way is to hide child categories with css styles. Please let us know if you need some tips on it.
How make this? Tell me please.
Also, could anyone also tell me how do I display products on Special as opposed to New Products?
Thanks!
It will require custom module codding. You can’t do it with default magento modules.
I renamed my header to say Featured instead of New Products
edit new.phtml
replace:
__(’New Products’) ?>
with:
__(’Featured’) ?>
And what file do I edit to change the left store catalog, smaller fonts and less space between the categories?
I like the theme very much, but If you have a lot categories it’s a big
menu at the left. Collapsible can help, but the space between the categories is also big.
Thanks.
Frank, we would recommend to install firebug extension for firefox to locate each style you need.
How create colapsible menu? I don understand. Help please.
Please check http://blog.templates-master.com/free-magento-classic-theme/#comment-797
Hi guys,
Congrats for this great template, like you must be tired to read. But you really made it.
my issue is that I´ve installed perfectly (at least i think) the theme, the home, the menu pages and the products categories and product pages looks with your theme. BUT…the shopping cart, My Wishlist, The account page from the customers looks with the default magento theme. What i´m not doing?? Thanks for your help
Hello Fabian, first please try to turn cache off. Next one possible reason is that you set wrong template in config for store but assigned f002 theme for home pages and products pages. Right way is to set f002 theme at config only.
Great template, thanks for it and the support. Here are a few things troubling me:
1. I too have several sub-categories showing in the Store Catalog on the home page (not all of them though). I understand from an earlier response, that I can prevent the sub-cats from showing using CSS. Could you please explain where and how?
2. I would like to change the “powered by” setting in the footer. How can I do that?
3. I notice hyper- linked text is gray and not underlined. How can I correct this?.
Hello Djinks.
1. Please check and modify menu.css (line 79) #nav-sidebox ul.level1…
2. What exactly do you want to change?
3. custom.css line 157 .content a - you should remove text-decoration:none;
First, let me thank you for giving me an opportunity to use such a versatile and lovely template for free, especially since I’m broke.
Second, for the life of me I can’t get the background of my site all one custom color. I change the color in boxes and reset as stated in a post listed in comments….i changed the colors in header-bg and content-bg uploaded to my server and the only change that was made was the top portion., But when i right click on view background image from my website a show the little image of content-bg as what i customize but the actual results don’t appear on the site it still remains gray.
and with header-bg being the only image that appeared customized it looked foolish so i had to change it back to gray. Plus that very top gray bar disappears when i customize header-bg.
please help me change my background all one color what am i doing wrong. cache is disabled.
thank you
also the footer remained gray after i change the color in reset
thank you
Hello khadija, sorry but we can’t post here complete guide to color changes. I think the best way for you is to set firebug extension for firefox and locate all classes that set this colors.
Hey TemplatesMaster, I have most of what I wanted working, theres only a couple things I can’t seem to figure out!
The static block ‘menu’; I’ve put in my own menu choices, however the page already comes with Home and Products both directing the user to the index page. I would like the redirect the user towards products.html as opposed to index. Where can I do this?
The other thing I don’t understand is how I can redirect the user around the store catalog. I have all the product pages working, and when a customer clicks a product, they will see the layered navigation on the top left. These navigations have links on them but they don’t go anywhere…(except error 404) So I have my pages made for those sections and I’d like to also redirect those links to the new ones. I’ve tried the URL Rewrite option but it won’t let me redirect more than one page to a url… What can you suggest I do to fix this? (for the meantime I’ve just made headers links)
Thanks for your help, this forum is really great for figuring out how use this template effectively!!
Hello Chralote,
You should edit /app/design/frontend/default/f002/templates/catalog/navigation/top.phtml
What is your magento version? Such thing could be happen if you use older magento version with last 1.3.2.2 template version.
>>1. Please check and modify menu.css (line 79) #nav-sidebox ul.level1…
Thanks, it worked great
>>2. What exactly do you want to change?
In the footer, the previous developer has “powered by xxxxx”. I need to change that. How do I tell if this is a commercial license?
>>3. custom.css line 157 .content a - you should remove text-decoration:none;
That change affects too much on the site. I just have a few URLs, buried in some normal text paragraphs. I need to make the URLs pop out a little. I have tried to override the style just on that one page, but cannot get the syntax right. Here is what I tried:
<a href= target=”_blank”>
Hi Djinks,
You should edit /app/design/frontend/default/f002/templates/page/html/footer.phtml
oops, #3 was not complete
>>3. custom.css line 157 .content a - you should remove text-decoration:none;
That change affects too much on the site. I just have a few URLs, buried in some normal text paragraphs. I need to make the URLs pop out a little. I have tried to override the style just on that one page, but cannot get the syntax right. Here is what I tried:
Looks like I cannot post the code I used, but I tried to use a span to override the style on the anchor tag (span….)(a href=…../a)(/span)
I just don’t know how to override the style that was set for the anchor. I want to do it in thie one page, I think.
That worked like a charm. Thanks for an excellent theme and a very accommodating staff! Thumbs up
Hi guys,
Thanks so much for your answer now its working fine, im seeing all the pages including whishlist etc, with your theme, BUT, I have 2 issues. One is always since i installed the theme and is about the footer and the dropdown with the stores that is gone. I have a solution for this an is to put a link to each stores (men and women) in the menu, but theres a way to make it visible again?
And 2 that begin since i can fix the thing with the wishlist and shopping pages…in the wishlist form a member account when i try to share the wishlist i have a 500 internal server error. why is that?
Thanks a lot again
Hello Fabian, please try add to ther footer template
<?php echo $this->getChildHtml('store_switcher') ?>thanx for this lovely template
my website has a large no of sub catagories
can u help me in making left menu expandible and collapsible
i m new to all this stuff plz give me a detailed introspection
thanx
karun
tks for the effort you put in here I appreciate it!
how can I add my manufactures list-links to either the
- main menu next to the “home” link or “product ” drop down
or
- left or right side bar?
Hopefully one day I’ll figure this all out and can actually contribute something other than questions
Thank you for the professional super clean theme
Hello Kilroy, there is no such thing as manufacture in Magento. You should create filtrable attribute and it will be added to layered navigation. Else you can create separate categories brunch for different manufactures.
just an update on trying to list the manufactures on the sidebars
I added them manually to
/app/design/frontend/default/f002/template/callouts
but for some reason when I do this it doubles itself and the contact us image..
been working on this for couple days.. everything I do doesn’t work.. I even took down the store trying to add manufacture list to the menu.
=(
Hi Templates Master,
Thanks for a great theme.
I have been asked to move the position of the slider.
Basically I need to put it on the CMS page HOMEPAGE as 360px wide and I will then have a couple of static images to the right of it.
I am pretty sure I can manage to change the dimensions of the slider, the bit I am stuggaling with is to get the slider to appear on the CMS Home page.
how would I do this,Thanks,
Alistair
no ideas? Not getting the love I need in the forums either
I tried to install this great looking theme on Magento 1.3.2.3. But as soon as a copy the ‘app’ and ’skin’ folder to my Magento folder I can’t open my website (both front-end and back-end) in Safari.
Safari say’s “Too many redirects occurred trying to open http://localhost:8888…. etc.”.
When I try to open the website in Firefox I get the Magento Install page.
Are there any know issues with this version of Magento or is there a solution for this?
I’m running Magento 1.3.2.3. on MAMP 1.7.2. on Mac OS X Leopard 10.5.7.
Problem solved! I’m new to Mac and I expected the folders to merge when I copied them, but it turns out Mac OS deletes every other item in the folder when you copy and overwrite folders.
So I was just missing some files Magento needed to run.
hey thank you for the advice!
I indeed have the attribute “Manufacturer” but it only shows on the product page..
I would like the Manufacturer attribute to display on the home page and the navigation menu would be nice too.
I’ll be working on this all week and as soon as I get it going I’ll post the reply here.. I’ll also be checking for an update from y’all too. many thanks for the advice!
Hello Kilroy, you can display it on layered navigation. Please set attribute filtrable and category as anchor.
Thanks TemplatesMaster, I have the footer sorted out.
Could you please give me some assistance on overriding styles on an anchor?
>>3. custom.css line 157 .content a - you should remove text-decoration:none;
That change would affect too much on the site. I just have a few (2-3) URLs, buried in some normal text paragraphs. I need to make the URLs pop out a little. Right now the text is gray and not underlined. I need to override the normal .content a{} style found in custom.css, but only for this one page.
Yeah, and update on the above - I have it working. I overrode this syle in custom.css
.contents a
by adding one named like this:
.contents a.urlblue
{
color:#6600FF;
text-decoration:underline;
}
then in the CMS Block
inserted the following inside the anchor:
class=”urlblue” href…etc
Thanks for a great template.
[...] View Theme [...]
Thanks Templates Master,
I figured out my problem, actually, by accident. I was complaining that the “Home” and “Product” links only went to index. The real problem is that when I was configuring my layered navigation through “Manage Categories”, I had assigned 3 Root categories that were not in the main “ROOT” folder. I understand now, that the ROOT folder must have your categories inside it for the home page and so forth to understand it. As soon as I moved all the categories to the ROOT folder, everything started working properly!
I have one more question for you! (I hope)
Currently, I am trying to change the left-col.phtml file so that the two images on the left - Call us at ___, and Free Shipping! - link to different pages. I don’t understand php hardly at all …but I was trying. Can you/anyone help me out?
getLinkUrl(),0,4))===’http’): ?>
<a href=”getLinkUrl() ?>”>
getLinkUrl()): ?>
<a href=”getUrl($this->getLinkUrl()) ?>”>
<img src=”getSkinUrl($this->getImgSrc()) ?>” width=”195″ alt=”__($this->getImgAlt()) ?>” style=”display:block;” />
getLinkUrl()): ?>
The first image is col_left_callout-1.jpg and it goes to “http://metabike.com/store/index.php/contacts/”
The second image is col_left_callout-2.jpg and it goes to “http://metabike.com/store/index.php/customer-service/”
When I input these into the code I get duplicates and all sorts of crazy things. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Charlotte
Hello Charlotte, please check catalog.xml file for next code:
<block type="core/template" after="-" name="left.permanent.callout-1" template="callouts/left_col.phtml"><action method="setImgSrc"><src>images/media/col_left_callout-1.jpg</src></action>

<action method="setLinkUrl"><url>checkout/cart</url></action>
</block>
You should edit setlinkurl property for each banner.

Drop Down Menu Issue With Menu Block.

I just barely tried to leave a comment and it took out all my code I was using to generate my drop down,. grr. Basically I am trying to allow other parts of the menu to have drop down capabilities. Any help would be MUCH appreciated. I have tried for days to find an answer to this issue.
Hello DavidB, it’s easy to do. Here is example of dropdown menu:
<li onmouseover="toggleMenu(this,1)" onmouseout="toggleMenu(this,0)" class="level0 nav-about parent"><a href="{{store url="about"}}">About us</a>
<ul class="level0">

<li class="level0 nav-contacts"><a href="{{store url="contacts"}}">Contact Us</a></li>
I am not sure what to edit to get the sub categories showing. I know that is the #nav-sidebox ul.level1 { display: none; }
what do i have to edit to show subcategories
Hello Chris, you should remove this class from stylesheet.
We are having a couple of issues with the template since upgrading to the latest magento release this week. Before my tech-guy manually merges the files back, he wants to know if there is a template revision for the latest version?
Is the template based on the ‘default theme’?
D
Yes this theme is based on default theme and shoulb have not problems with last magento version.
Hi Everyone, this template looks great !!!!
I have installed successfully the “Free Magento Classic Theme”.
But I would like one of the side banners (the “free shipping” banner) to be shown on the right side of the screen,
and not the left as it is by default. Could be below the “community poll”.
Could someone explain where is the customization?
Best regards,
Sorry for my english !! I’m from Brazil !!
Hello Tiberius, please check catalog.xml file for next code:
<block type="core/template" after="-" name="left.permanent.callout-1" template="callouts/left_col.phtml"><action method="setImgSrc"><src>images/media/col_left_callout-1.jpg</src></action>
<action method="setImgAlt" translate="alt" module="catalog"><alt>Our customer service is available 24/7. Call us at (800) DEMO-NUMBER.</alt></action>
<action method="setLinkUrl"><url>checkout/cart</url></action>
</block>
You should move it from <reference name="left"> to <reference name="right"> group. Please do the same for next banner that is declared with similar code bellow.
@Chris
In \skin\frontend\default\f002\css\menu.css, the following will hide the subcategories:
#nav-sidebox li.level1 {
display: none;
}
If you have that or maybe something more specific Such as this:
#nav-sidebox li.level1.a specific-category-name {
display: none;
}
,,,,
You should remove those to allow the Level1 categories to display.

I have a CMS Static Block with some small text that I would like to put in a box on the left of a three-column page. I know how to put the CMS Block where I want it, but I would like to put a border around in, similar to the border around the Catalog SideBar. How can I do that?
The theme works great for me except when I have a configurable product, the page shows up as an error. The simple product page works just fine. I figure this is a template problem as I switched to other template the configurable product page load just fine.
This is the error it shows:
Warning: include(/home/…/public_html/…/app/design/frontend/default/default/template/catalog/product/view/options/js.phtml) [function.include]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/…/public_html/…/app/code/core/Mage/Core/Block/Template.php on line 144

Any ideas? Thank you.

Hello EV, you sould turn magento cache off.
I have read through twice, have I missed a post where someone explains how to collapse the menu?
If someone could post how to do this or point me to the date and time of the above post I would be appreciated.
Hello Aaron, please change
menu.css (line 79)
#nav-sidebox ul.level1 { display:none;}to
#nav-sidebox ul.level0 {display:none;}The drop down suggestion and code worked great for the main list, however, it doesn’t work very well for a sub menu. What I mean is that the menu drops great, however it doesn’t go to a sub well (it won’t allow padding on the left). So say I have Articles as a top level, and then fruit, vegetables, and colors drop under the articles I would want each of them to have a sub menu.
So for colors I might want blue, green, red, black, etc.
So far I have got it to work a little, but any menu items with child items float all the way to the left and have no padding. I would like them to stay the same like the ones under products.
I have tried to add classes and id’s within the menu block to add padding on the left to that particular item, and none are recognized.
THANK YOU for your wonderful theme and work. This is one of the last things I have to do on this site before launch. Once this site is up and I have some funds I will donate, or purchase another theme from you guys. You guys are awesome! No other theme developers have a theme to try out like this. It truly makes me feel comfortable purchasing a theme.
Hello David, please contact us for more details using contact form at our store so we can check what is wrong with your store.
Great template, thanks!
My question is:
How can I automate slider?
I want to be able to somehow point it to 4-5 products, so it can then automatically pick up its images/info. Right now, it seems like I have to manually code both images and product URLs, and it is unclear how I can plug in description/price/etc.
Also, is there any way to add hovering text?
Hello Eduard, unfortunately you can’t do this with current slider.
Hi,
Has anyone managed to get the accordion menu working with this template?
I have tried but been unsuccessful.
Here is a link to the menu: http://www.chnorton.com.au/2008/06/14/accordion-navigation/
hi! thanks for you wonderful theme!
could you give me an advice to have a possiblity of managing your pics for different countries?
eg. this:
skin/frontend/default/f002/images/media/col_left_callout-1.jpg
how can i manage to have different content for other language?
thank you!!!
Hello Kocka, We would suggest you to duplicate skin folder for each languages and assign it to each separate storeview. So forexample you will have f002_en for English, f002_es skin folder for Spanish and so on.
I have noticed a bug caused by a slider.
To see it in action open home page with a slider (http://freedemo.templates-master.com/f002/) and a single page without a slider on it (http://freedemo.templates-master.com/f002/testimonials). Then compare them.
The whole content of the single page without a slider will be moved to the right side by approximetely 5 pixels.
I found that the problem is hidden in the css style of the slider, namely in “position: relative”:
#slider
{
height: 200px;
position: relative;
width: 930px;
margin: 0 auto;
overflow: hidden;
margin-bottom: 13px;
border: 1px solid #ccc;
}
However, if you try to change it to absolute or fixed everything will be messed up.
Any solutions how we can fix it?
