Hiding or Deleting Counter

[henryp]

When using the theme "Retro" I need to hide or delete the grey box containing the "Items" and "Value" counter that appears on the left hand side of the shop.html.

I also want to add images down this left hand side under the navigation links.

Anyone got any ideas how to do this and what templates are involved.

You'll need to edit the primary templates.

A good starting place is the Advanced User Guide that can be downloaded from the actinic site. It also explains about the display of cart content on web pages.

Thanks Mike

I have ammended templates in this way before using Actinic Ver 3 - 5 and found it fairly straight forward. However using Ver 6.0 I just can't get my head round this particular problem.

What ever I do to the templates seems to put stuff in the wrong place. I was looking for a quick solution but it seems I have to trudge through the manual.

Go to 'Design | Options | Layouts' and click 'Edit' next to the 'Default Overall Layout' field.

Look for code similar to the following:

<script language="JavaScript">
document.write("NETQUOTEVAR:CARTCOOKIEITEMS&nbsp;" + getCartItem(3)+"&nbsp;<BR>");
document.write("NETQUOTEVAR:CARTCOOKIEVALUE&nbsp;" + getCartItem(1));
</script>You can remove this from the file and then save it.

Thanks Chris Dicken.

Deleting the javascript did the job of removing the counter.

I wanted to add a logo image to the navigation template but got problems. Got round it by using the companies logo to go to the brochure home page and this sorted that.

Do you know how I can switch off the email link?
I plan to replace the button to link to a web form but can't see how to switch off the link that opens up Outlook!

Go to 'Design | Options | Navigation' and remove the values in the 'Description', 'Image' and 'Highlighted Image' fields in the 'Send Mail Icon' area.
