Carrying on from my previous thread http://www.iactivate.co.uk is finally finished. Im having massive problems integrating WHMCS into it though. no matter what i put etc.. it just doesnt play ball, either the page goes white and out of shape or only half the banner is there. I was wondering if anyone could help me :) I have no clue what to do with this.

p.s ive scoured google, i know about header.tpl etc.. but it just doesnt work :(
 
Can see you WHMCS install at the moment under billing but I assume that's only because you've removed all customisation?

I'd start at the very basics. Can you even just get a single piece of text to appear in the template?
 
@Roy yes i can get text to appear , i did manage to get the banner shown but it made the page go funny, if it would help i could post my .css and header.tpl file for someone maybe to do ?

thanks

Right, so it's not a technical problem with changing files or files being corrupt, it's a implementation problem with the HTML itself.

In which case modifying templates can be a tricky business. CSS and HTML can have a lot of strange code that might have knock on effects that can catch out the unaware.

You look to have done some fine work with the front end. Is this just a template?

If not, and you have some experience with web design, then "divide and conquer". Start with the basics.

If you can get some text to appear then slot in a DIV with an image and get it where you want it.

If you can get that working then look at creating your header and main content DIVs with different background to prove to yourself you can make it work.

Start with you big containing DIVs then work you're way down to moving around the individual pieces of content content.
 
yeh see i did this, and although i got the banner and menu to appear, the actual portal was out of place and i couldnt get it to move, alos my footer didnt work
 
Right, well sounds like you just need to brush up on your CSS.

You want to put up what you tried and I'll have a spy for you now.
 
hey roy, thanks for your help, ok ive put up what ive done. ive improved a lot but as you can see if you press order then the template mucks u again,and i still cant get my footoer to display properly

Ok, looking good. Just looks like you're missing a bit of the basics.

What I would do is take out the code for those content sections (i.e. the price list and side bar) and work on blocking out the sections.

You want a "mainbar" that contains your "content_left" and "side_menu" divs.

Get them in with correct widths and float your content_left to the left and your side_menu to the right. Again, make sure your widths let them float side by side.

I can't actually see the code for your footer so I assume it's more a "finding the right template file to put it in" rather than an HTML display issue. I could be wrong. But again, go back to basics. Get something super simple in the position you want it and work up to putting in your full code.
 
ive made a few more changes but just cant get it haha, and i havnt included the footer yet as it never worked :) oh and as i said in the other thread the css was copied and i had a lot of help with the website, probably from so many different people that it doesnt make sense
 
Ok, you want to add:

#content_left{
float: left;
width: 700px;
}

#side_menu{
float: right;
}

to you .css

That should get you going in the right direction :)

That will make the main content on the left and the side bar on the right.

Won't solve the footer problem though. As, like I've said, I don't see the HTML in the code.
 
now the bar has disappeared completely, im really tempted to create a simpler 1/2 page design with banner / menu and plans on 1 page then integrating will be easier. After talking to a mate of mine, i have included to much code from different sources which has made my design very hard to manipulate thanks for all your help though.

Ok, looking at the page as it stands this second (you keep changing things) the HTML for the side bar isn't being created by the template.

That won't have happened due to a change in the CSS alone...

Edit:: Off to bed now anyway. No doubt someone else will pickup where I've left you. I'll have a spy at how you're getting on tomorrow.

just had a look at your site very nice but it says you started in 2007 on your company profile page but your domain name was registered on 24th July 2010.
Just thought this might be a typo.
 
na i used that as a template, we did start in 2007 but selling game servers and started poorly indeed, we then switched to the domain iactivate.eu, i think google cache still has some info on that from 2008/9 and now back to this as things have progressed.

And the site isnt finished i just used that as a basis (it will be changed more i promise) :)
 
i really would like to thank Rob especially, as i finally got it working :). The about us is going to be re written as it was just a temp thing
