I need to remove these circled areas.

[damian5000]

Basically I'm just running a catalog and I don't want all the circled areas. I'd like to remove them, but have the option to easily bring them back in the future.

 

I got it close to what I wanted, but then the search bar was pushed down into the slider area, and the new products "View.." link was pushed slightly up into the description. Being that I'd uninstalled a lot of blocks as opposed to disabling, I decided to start fresh again.

 

If anyone can tell me exactly what blocks to disable (or uninstall if I must) to remove the circled areas, that would be great.

 

I also need to remove responsive mobile altogether.

So, one by one:

1-manufacturers: go to modules, look for manufacturers block and disable/uninstall it
2- Information: same page, configure CMS block and remove the links you don't need
3- disable/uninstall advertising block (always in modules)
4- disable user info block
5- disable permanent links
6- disable store block
7 disable my account block on footer.

Now, for the other footer things, go to modules, positions and look for the footer table. Remove categories and cms blocks from there. Lastly, back to modules, configure reinsurance block and remove the image/text you don't need

Okay... Excellent. Thanks... But now I'm getting this - search and logo out of place. Am using latest 1.5.5.0

Okay. Great. Some somewhat related youtube tutorial and my prior slight css knowledge helped with this.

 

Simple changes to css has mostly fixed it. At least fixed it well enough to look much better.

 

themes/global.css change 'position: absolute;' to 'float: left;'

#header_logo {

	float: left;

	left:0;

	top: 30px;

	z-index: 1;

}

And - modules/blocksearch/blocksearch.css . Change 'position: absolute;' to 'float: right;' .

#search_block_top {
	float:right;
	right: 26%;
    top: 34px;
}

Ideally, this would be great to get them on the same line. But this is good enough for now. Anyone knows a simple way to get them on the same line, that's cool. If not, no big deal.

 

Now it looks like this.

your website is online? it will be much easier to help if you will share the url, it's easy to fix css issue probably

You mean putting the top menu and search box on the same line?

You can add position: absolute and adjust the top offset for the search block

Okay. That makes sense. I will give that a try.
