Can't get 'design furniture' theme to display properly

[MontyVeda]

Hello,

 

1st post here so i apologise if this issue has been asked numerous times... (i previously put this in the themes section but have a feeling it's more suited to this section)

 

I'm trying to install the Design Furniture theme and have had to upload it manually.

 

The theme is up but the layout is all wrong. It looks like the left & right columns, along with the centre column are too wide for the page and hence, are all displaying on top of each other.

 

here's the site as it stands at the moment, http://www.blinds.org.uk/

 

NOTE - Have switched back to the standard theme temporarily

 

I've tried repositioning using the live editor but nothing fits, so anything I move jumps back to where it came from.

 

Any ideas where I'm going wrong?

 

I understand i may be a little vague but I'm a complete novice with prestashop

 

cheers, dave

 

 

edit.... when i initially installed the designfurniture theme, I unpacked the 'modules' folder into the modules folder on the live site, I unpacked the 'themes' folder in to tah folder on the live site and am not sure where the config file should go...

 

it looks like this:

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>

- <theme version="1.0" name="designfurniture">

should this go in the top level (public_html) folder or elsewhere?

 

 

I've stuck it here, there and everywhere and am frankly getting lost

[MontyVeda]

if there is nobody on this forum who can help me... does anybody know of another forum which may be of more use to a novice prestashop user?

[fabricepmw]

Have you found a solution? I have found it difficult to install at first but once I got around to using modules and their positions everything became easier...
