Default Define Main page

I recently purchase a template OS03C00236_BTS and it all seems to be working fine except the Define Main page doesn't seem to show the text I put in the editor,
it works great with the default oscmax template (fall back) I can type text in the editor and it shows up formatted and everything, but it doesn't show on the front page when I switch to the template I recently purchased, can anyone please help me with this, I don't know where to look to troubleshoot this problem
Thank You

Default Re: Define Main page

take a look at what it's calling to do the include. Different templates make different calls. Some call /includes/languages/english/default.php others call /includes/languages/english/index.php Please check to see what yours is calling and make sure that is the one you edit when you edit the language/english file from the admin.

Thank you so much for your time and consideration I really appreciate it, I've been looking around and can't seem to find where that call is from, is it in the template main_page.tpl.php or could it be the actual page in the admin define_main page.php either way I can't seem to find the call, I guess I'll keep looking, but thanks again for your help and direction.

metalman923:

You may also have an issue if you try to edit HTML for Define Mainpage using Firefox. Something just a little funky going on there that sometimes makes browser session fail.

Default Re: Define Main page

Make sure this is in /content/index_default.tpl.php of your template:

PHP Code:
          <tr>
            <
td class="main"><?php include(DIR_WS_LANGUAGES $language '/' FILENAME_DEFINE_MAINPAGE); ?></td>
          </tr>
That will call the main page content that you edit in the admin panel.

Default Re: Define Main page

I am also having problems trying to modify the product view page of template OS03C00227.

I want to intergrate lightbox but can not locate the script / file that actually creates the main image insert on the product view ARG

Default Re: Define Main page

in the templates/OS03C00227/content folder it will be product_info.tpl.php. If the product_info.tpl.php file is not present in that folder, the template uses the default fallback template located in /templates/fallback/content. If that is the case, copy it from the fallback dir to your custom template content dir.
