Hi everyone!
I am using Opencart 1.5.4.1 as a new user and I am not a web programmer - and I must say that it is a fantastic project!
I have installed a few VQmod extensions ok, but I have a few questions that I hope someone can help me with - I have been searching for days for the answers, but I am getting nowhere
1): I wish to put a custom title tag, and keywords on the homepage. Which file should I edit, and exactly what should I put so I don't mess up any of the automatic title stuff. I would rather not use a vqmod for this.
2): I wish to remove the word 'Featured' from the top of the 'featured' box on my homepage. I would also like the box to disappear, leaving my 2 products behind.
3): I wish to resize the 2 featured products that I have. I read some forum posts, and adjusted theme/default/template/module/featured.tpl
<div style="margin-left: 5px; margin-right: 5px; width: 400px;">
Which has helped, but If I resize the images in admin to over 250px the left image starts to overlap the right image.
Ultimately, I want the two images side-by-side to be the whole width of the page.
4): When I go through admin panel, Systems/settings/store edit, any attempt to save my changes takes me straight back to the admin login page. There are no errors in the Log
I read the guide on fixing opencart, but I dont really know what Im doing.
5): Lastly, Its a UK site, but it is hosted on a US server. I show on google.com, but I'm not showing up on google.co.uk. Is there an easy way to rectify this without changing to a UK server?
Can anybody help with any of these problems?
Sorry it is a long post for my first, but I have so many questions!!
The site is http://www.york3dprinters.com
Thanks in advance,
Aidan

Why exactly do you want to do this? Custom title tag is generated for each page. Keywords no longer effect SEO (from google anyway).1): I wish to put a custom title tag, and keywords on the homepage.

My error here. I didn't mean keywords.... what I mean is that I wish to change the page <title> from York3dPrinters.com to York3dprinters.com | Some SEO text | some more SEO text - but only on the homepage. I was hoping to drop something like
<title> York3dprinters.com | Some SEO text | some more SEO text </title>
into the homepage file simply. without pulling something from a database or another file. Is this possible?
2:
I thought it was this, and tried it, but nothing changed after I hit Ctrl F5 a few times, so I put it back in again. Removed it again now. Still nothing happening.KollanH wrote: 2): I wish to remove the word 'Featured' from the top of the 'featured' box on my homepage.

UPDATE: My apologies, this worked fine after clearing out the vqcache Thanks!

The thing you want to resize is
CODE: SELECT ALL
<div class="box-product">
<div class="box">
<div class="box-content">
<div class="box-product">
<?php foreach ($products as $product) { ?>
<div style="margin-left: 30px; margin-right: 20px; width: 400px;">
<?php if ($product['thumb']) { ?>
<div class="image"><a href="<?php echo $product['href']; ?>"><img src="<?php echo $product['thumb']; ?>" alt="<?php echo $product['name']; ?>" /></a></div>
<?php } ?>
</div>
<?php } ?>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Clearing the cache helped with this too, but they still are not aligned centrally
Last one...
Error messages in the log - didn't see them before, although I dont know why.... d'uh:

I didn't realise that I had to clear the vqmod cache. So I am closer (again!)

System->Settings->Store->Title Change that to whatever text you want and it will only effect the home page.1> custom Title in the homepage,

LOL that takes me back to issue 4! Can't save settings in store! - good to know that it only changes the Homepage though!
Any ideas why I cant save?
Are there any typical reasons that I can check? There is nothing mentioned in the 'fixing common problems'
Wow. I fixed it! (quite a miracle)
I found out that the Php.ini file in the admin folder was missing (!?)
(didn't realise there should be one... just 'happened' across a reference to it, and though I would check!)
I replaced it with one from a fresh download and I can now save my store setting again. What a relief!
Homepage title is now sorted too - Thankyou KollanH
Odd actually, I have had files mysteriously disappear from my opencart before. I read of a couple of people who have experienced this?
... anyone else????
