    This is a great set of templates and I absolutely love it. Thanks so much!

    One question though: There is a Paypal image in the right sidebar. Where do I edit that? I want to replace it with a custom image.

    Thanks again,

    –Tim

    Please let me know when the Absolute theme will be compatible with Magento 1.4.1.0? Thanks!

    • TemplatesMaster July 17, 2010 at 2:23 pm #

      Johnson, it’s already updated to 1.4.1.

  4. Simo July 15, 2010 at 9:06 am #

    Hi, Thx for a great theme. Just wondering how I remove the paypal logo. Can’t seem to find where to remove it.
    Cheers
    Simo

    Hi,
    I can’t get upsell/cross-sell to show on the product pages. Is there somewhere obvious to update?

    • TemplatesMaster August 3, 2010 at 9:28 am #

      Peter, this part was not modifed and should works the same as above. Can you check same blocks in default theme?

  6. Ste July 29, 2010 at 12:28 pm #

    Hi,

    Just tried to remove the paypal logo from paypal.xml is stated above but its not worked. Removed the code here app\design\frontend\base\default\layout\paypal.xml. Is that right?

    • TemplatesMaster August 3, 2010 at 9:43 am #

      Yes, but you should copy app\design\frontend\base\default\layout\paypal.xml to your theme. Please don’t forget to refresh your cache.

  7. Ste July 29, 2010 at 5:27 pm #

    Hi, another question… Where can I modify the content/layout of the quickview feature? Would like to add some attributes to it.

  8. Ste July 30, 2010 at 12:12 pm #

    Just one more question… I’m trying to style Raptor’s Supermenu multi column menu with the Absolute theme menu styling. Where would I find the relevant Absolute menu css to modify the supermenu css?

  9. MRae August 17, 2010 at 7:30 pm #

    Thanks for the great theme! Gotta question on 2 things.
    1. For some reason the slider wont show images but is showing that it is sliding. I checked the directory and the images are loaded in the correct file.. hmmm
    2. I also have the home page set to the grey theme, but when I click on a category, it takes me to the default F001 blue background.

    Thanks for the awesome work… :)

    • TemplatesMaster August 29, 2010 at 8:43 pm #

      MRae,

      #1 PLease check your home page html code and check what is your slide images url. Most likely it was broken with WISIWYG editor.
      #2 Have you set any design at admin > system > design interface or any category design settings?

  10. David August 24, 2010 at 7:53 pm #

    The absolute theme Rocks!
    I’m using mostly configurable products, so it doesn’t make sense to have “Add to Cart” in the catalog view.
    How would I change the button to “View Details” to bring up the product view?
    Thanks!!

    • TemplatesMaster August 29, 2010 at 8:50 pm #

      David, you should edit app/design/frontend/default/f001/templates/catalog/product/list.phtml template and replace add to cart button code.

  11. I'm here September 16, 2010 at 9:07 am #

    Hi,
    I’ve installed Magento Absolute Theme and need help with following 2 issues and will appreciate if you reply very much.

    Issue1: i’m trying to create a new attribute but the field “Used for Sorting in Product Listing” is greyed out under this box it says – Depends on design theme. Does absolute them not support this? I’m using magento v1.4.1.1 and f001

    Issue2: There seems to be IE8 bug in the theme – when typing any search keyword in search box the results show up, off the page in ie8 towards the right side.
    Just typing 2-3 letters in search box on home page and wait few sec and a scroll bar appears on the browser window and you can see search results towards the right side after scrolling.
    But in firefox it works just fine.

    Please help.
    Thanks

  12. Mike October 27, 2010 at 11:24 pm #

    How do you edit the links to each “slide” on the front page?

    What if I don’t want to use as many slides?

    and is there an easier way to change those images? other than digging into the FTP folders.

    thanks!

    • Jeroen November 9, 2010 at 12:19 pm #

      @Mike:

      Admin->Static Blocks->Showcase

      {{store url=”"}} -> {{store url=”test.html”}}

      add or remove div sections here

    • TemplatesMaster November 15, 2010 at 6:07 pm #

      Please check home page code and you will find that every slide has anchor tag.

  13. Nortom November 28, 2010 at 2:17 pm #

    i’m installed Magento 1.4.2 rc1, but i have a probleem with showing the catalog product price and available: stock after upgrade it’s gone.
    Some help please.

  14. Bret Williams November 29, 2010 at 8:22 pm #

    We’re enjoying this template and figuring out how to customize it. I do have a problem, though, I can’t track down. Using 1.4.1.x,

    We set the Default Configuration to “f001″ for Translations, Templates, Skin and Layout as instructed. Set the Home Page Design to “f001,” as well.

    When changing the Default Store View to “f001_[color],” only the secondary pages are changed. The Home page is still blue.

    How do we get the Home Page color to change?

    • TemplatesMaster December 7, 2010 at 12:30 pm #

      Bret, you should not assign any specific theme at home page design settings and admin > system > design. Please use just config settings.

  15. Arash December 3, 2010 at 11:36 pm #

    Im using Dutch language pakket for magento. Everytings workt fine with this template except the “Your shopping cart is empty” on top keep showing in English. Which file sould i edit to get this text also in Dutch?

    Tanks

    • TemplatesMaster December 7, 2010 at 12:44 pm #

      You should add translation to app\design\frontend\default\f001\locale\YOURLOCALE\translate.csv

  16. jaco wang December 9, 2010 at 4:12 am #

    in customer.css
    .recently .grid-row{border-bottom:1px solid #d9dde3}

    the bottom line show incorrect under IE 8/6 Win XP. Magento 1.4.1.1

    but FF is OK.

    any solution?

  17. Tassos December 10, 2010 at 10:29 pm #

    Hi,

    Great template.
    Is it compatible with Magento 1.4.2?
    It gives me an error on on the custom layout of the homepage. If i remove the line above, it works.

    • TemplatesMaster December 27, 2010 at 1:23 am #

      Yes, it was already upgraded. You can download upgraded them from our store.

  18. RG December 17, 2010 at 12:00 pm #

    Any idea when 1.4.2 compatibility might be in place?

    • TemplatesMaster December 27, 2010 at 1:25 am #

      It’s already available at our store.

  19. Terik December 30, 2010 at 5:14 am #

    Hi I installed the template it is everything is fine exccept one issue which is I cant get the Latest Products and Recommended products on the main page….please let me know thanks

  20. Traci Kaspar January 27, 2011 at 2:49 am #

    We are updating our url and I upgraded to 1.4.1.1
    Before going live, I was testing on internet explorer (i dont use it myself) and the buttons in the checkout screen arent showing up. Is this from the theme or from the base css? Just wondering where to go look. . . If you click where the button should be it works like it is there btw.

    Thanks.

    • TemplatesMaster February 21, 2011 at 6:31 pm #

      Sorry but we do not see this problem at your store. Can you send screenshot of this problem?

  21. Jonathan February 5, 2011 at 5:09 pm #

    Is there a fix for the price not showing on the product page?

    • TemplatesMaster February 21, 2011 at 6:35 pm #

      Most liekly you should use right theme version. In case you are using Magento 1.4.2 then please download recent theme version at our store.

  22. Jonathan February 5, 2011 at 9:39 pm #

    Correction/Recommedation to my last comment. Do not install the magento absolute template via the magento connect you will run into problems with the price showing on the product page.

    I recommend only installing this template via FTP

    • TemplatesMaster February 21, 2011 at 6:36 pm #

      Unfortunatly we have problems updating theme package at Magento connect right now. So the best way is to download package from our store.

  23. Vijay sahu February 12, 2011 at 7:44 pm #

    Is there any setting for admin

    • TemplatesMaster February 21, 2011 at 6:38 pm #

      Yes, installation manual comes together with template package.

  24. Benny March 2, 2011 at 7:40 pm #

    Hello,

    First of all: graet template!!

    I have a problem with the drop down Top-menu items.
    When I select a menu item, the drop down menus are comming to the front, but wen I try to select these, they disappear. Sommetimes, when i’ve been quick enoug I can select them.
    This fenomen is only in Chrome and Firefox, not in IE8

    Can anyone help me with this??

    Best regards, Benny

    • Benny March 2, 2011 at 9:20 pm #

      OK, I found a solution.

      There’s a tiny gap between the top button’s and the dropdown,

      Moving the whole drop down up a bit seems to solve the problem in FF and Chrome.

      Custom CSS
      /************ 2ND LEVEL ************/
      #nav ul{position:absolute; width:15em; top:40px; left:-10000px; border:1px solid #aaa; border-color:#ccc #aaa #aaa #ccc; border-top-width:0}

      Changed the top position value from 40px to 39.5px !!!

      Best regards,

      Benny

    • TemplatesMaster March 10, 2011 at 3:36 pm #

      Benny you can fix it by editing custom.css (line 144)

      #nav ul {
      ...
      top:38px;
      ...
      }

  25. Iain March 27, 2011 at 1:53 am #

    Hi guys,

    I have a few stores now all running this theme and I am very happy. I have just installed the theme again in two Magento 1.5 stores and have only now seen your comments here about not doing it via Magento Connect. What can I do to fix this? Do I have to reinstall it all via your store or is there a quick fix to add the price to the product page, which is currently missing?

    Please let me know and how I do this,

    Regards,

    Iain

  26. Daisy April 2, 2011 at 11:23 am #

    Hello templatemaster, I have a problem with my font color,

    Home and Cellphones word is color in white

    and

    3.) Some description is colored in white (in paragraph style)

    pls help me…

  27. Ryan May 1, 2011 at 10:28 pm #

    Hi,

    This is an excellent template, I’m just having one problem under IE9, when clicking on quickview it does not open the popup but actually redirects to a page with all the information. Is there a way I can fxi this.

    Thanks again for the great template!

    • TemplatesMaster July 5, 2011 at 3:48 pm #

      Please contact our support team. We will check what is wrong with this extension.

  28. Virginia May 9, 2011 at 12:44 pm #

    Hi !!

    My problem is with the F001 template for Magento. I have a store with products and each product has a different amount. When I change the amount of product (2kg, 3kg, 10kg), I have an error in the price, always get the same price and the template does not change me.

    What file I have to modify to do the calculation well?

    Thank you

    • TemplatesMaster July 5, 2011 at 3:52 pm #

      Can you tell us what theme version and what magento version do you use?

  29. Jennifer Sifuentes June 21, 2011 at 1:13 pm #

    which files do we edit for the contacts page after installing the absolute theme? i tried adding a cms page but that didn’t seem to work :-/

    • TemplatesMaster July 5, 2011 at 4:11 pm #

      Absolute theme doesn’t include modified contacts us page template. So you should copy it from base package in order to modify it.

    If anyone’s reading this… is the latest version as posted at MagentoConnect updated to 1.6?

    • TemplatesMaster January 11, 2012 at 11:35 pm #

      Sorry but it isn’t updated yet.

  31. Peter Glock January 12, 2012 at 9:15 pm #

    I’m using the 1.6.1 version of the template on a 1.6.2 website. The type ahead feature in the search box does not seem to work. Is there some patching of files to do?

    • TemplatesMaster January 13, 2012 at 9:21 am #

      Does it work at your store with default theme turned on?

      • Philipp February 11, 2012 at 6:47 pm #

        Hi,

        I have the same problem. The search option side bar is not available anymore. Is there an update or patch?

        Regards from Germany
        Philipp

        • TemplatesMaster February 16, 2012 at 3:00 am #

          Sorry can you post link to your store? It should be at same place.

        • TemplatesMaster March 2, 2012 at 11:12 am #

          What version do you use? We have checked 1.6.x version of template and everything works fine.

      • Peter Glock February 25, 2012 at 7:19 pm #

        It’s stopped working with the default as well so i guess I’ve overwritten a core file somewhere. Any ideas?

  32. danielg February 16, 2012 at 4:15 am #

    Hi, i love your templates, i have a problem: i chose the red skin, but on my product view it shows blue, any ideas?

  33. Cees March 19, 2012 at 9:14 pm #

    Hello

    Is there a way to change the button color from grey to orange .
    I ve been digging but as far as i can see the button’s layout are in the button.gif file,

    thanks

    • TemplatesMaster August 17, 2012 at 12:02 pm #

      Yes you can change that. You should edit button background images. I would suggest to use Firefox extension Firebug in order to locate right images to edit.

  34. Jim April 7, 2012 at 4:29 am #

    These guys and their templates are great. Service above and beyond! Their quick action and attention made an otherwise horrible experience setting up a store- bearable!

    • TemplatesMaster August 17, 2012 at 12:04 pm #

      Thank you!

  35. Brian Melendez April 11, 2012 at 5:00 am #

    I am testing magento and tried your theme. I am not familiar with Magento. I got it installed, but I can’t get the header to show up with the list of categories. I created a test category and product and they are not showing no matter what options I choose.

    Site is akaccessorize.com/magento2

    • TemplatesMaster August 17, 2012 at 12:05 pm #

      Test category should be set as child to your root category.

  36. Adrienne June 1, 2012 at 4:00 pm #

    Hello Template Master,

    In my Magento 1.6.2 shop http://www.kramenplein.nl the quick view link “hang” al the time…..

    Is there a fix.

    Thanks in advange,

    Adrienne.

    • TemplatesMaster August 17, 2012 at 12:12 pm #

      Most likely some files are missing. I would suggest reupoad all theme files.

  37. Green Apple June 8, 2012 at 5:57 pm #

    I am having difficulty with the Featured attribute for configurable products. The “Featured” attribute will appear in the admin Manage Products for Simple Products only. However when I go to add a Configurable Product to the list of Featured Products, the Featured attribute menu is not there. Have a made an error in how I created the Attribute that it will not appear for all product types?
    Thanks

    • TemplatesMaster August 17, 2012 at 12:13 pm #

      Please post screenshot of your featured products settings so we can check what is wrong.

  38. Andy June 25, 2012 at 6:10 pm #

    Great theme, but i can’t get the price to show on the product page, andy ideas?

    • TemplatesMaster August 17, 2012 at 12:17 pm #

      You should install right version of template for your Magento CE.

  39. Jeff July 9, 2012 at 3:31 am #

    Hi TM,

    I am about to upgrade an existing CE 1.4.1.1 site to CE 1.7.0.2 I am currently using the appropriate Absolute theme for 1.4.1.1 and have downloaded the latest version in readiness. My question is, in that a version of absolute is already installed and referenced as f001, can I rename the folders in the latest version to something like “f001_17″ to be able to have the files for both versions in place and after the upgrade switch from f001 (old version) to “f001_17″ (latest version). I was planning on simply ftp the files to the site.
    The folder names to be changed would be

    \app\design\frontend\default\f001
    changed to
    \app\design\frontend\default\f001_17
    and
    \skin\frontend\default\f001
    \skin\frontend\default\f001_sea_green
    changed to
    \skin\frontend\default\f001_17
    \skin\frontend\default\f001_17_sea_green
    Could it be that simple, or is “f001″ explicitly expressed elsewhere in your code?

    Thanks for a great template.

    • TemplatesMaster August 17, 2012 at 12:23 pm #

      Yes sure you can rename theme files with out any problems except files placed at app/etc/code

  40. gozzia August 29, 2012 at 4:26 pm #

    Hi
    I installed the theme, but I have a problem with the top navigation bar and the slider. There is no top navigation bar. I already have child categories and still no bar. And the slider is no showing any images.

    Is there a fix?

    Thanks,
