How to change Prestashop's theme?

[iisidiili]

Hi,

Completely new to Prestashop and knowing nothing about it. I have succeeded to upload a Prestashop addons' theme correctly, but how to place the logo where is should be? I have tried the different sizes and it covers a part of the header in the shop. How to move up the position of the logo and make the background transparent?

 

The seconds problem are the images and the texts in the Prestashop theme I would like to change. How to do it? Could someone help and explain step by step?

1) please share url to your shop, without url it will be hard to help especially when this case (with logo) is related to css syles.

 

2) to change theme texts, go to localization > translations tab in your back office, then select "front office translations" and press your flag. You can manage texts there. Regarding to the images, what you mean exactly?

By the text I mean all the images in the slide show as well as in the linked images behind the slides (ex. baby cloth 30% off). Also I would like to remove the links from the images.

 

The back office is not accessible. I'm getting the error message, when I try to get where: "Please ask your hosting provider to increase the this limit to 4709 at least or edit the translation file manually". Though, this modification was already done by the hosting provider, but it didn't help. Now I can access everywhere to translate except the back office.

you have got this logo in png format?

[iisidiili]

Yes, it is in png format.

ok thank you for confirmation,

please go to preferences > images

and instead of JPG use this option:

 

 

then please reupload your logo, it should be transparent now.

[iisidiili]

Thank you for your help, but it didn't help. The setting were already settled down to the point "use png only if.."  I have tried all the different formats by now.

so other thing,

you can upload your png file manually,

then chang eextension from png to jpg

will work as png

Thanks, the logo became transparent now, but it is still pending too low. Could you please also advise me how to move it up or how to adjust the header's size?

 

The other problem is that all the slides and the pictures on the front page are redirecting to the site where I have purchased my template. How to update the links and make them point to the product categories?

 

I also would need to update the texts in the slides. I have updated the pictures in the template file, after that I have updated the template in the shop, but for the reason I ignore, the modifications were not take into account. The pictures in the template file aren't the same as I see in the shop. I don't understand why.

Of course that i can

 

open file: global.css, near line 1152 you've got:

#header_logo {
position: absolute;
left: 7px;
top: 26px;
z-index: 9;
}

instead of top:26px use top:5px;

 

in global.css paste somewhere this code:

#columns {margin-top:40px!important;} 
.sf-contener {
top: 30px;
position: relative;
}

effect:

 

 

regarding to the other problems: it will be great if you will open new threads !

OK, I will do it for the new topics.

 

Regarding the previously described logo-problem: I'm not able to upload the modified template zip-file back to FTP, because there is still the old zip with this same theme, but without the modifications.I don't know how to delete it. I choose 'Import zip-file from your computer', after go to 'Import from FTP', but there is still the same old theme, which remains at the same place. When I proceed to the final installation, I get the previous version with no modifications. The system takes into account only the old zip-file uploaded earlier

you don't have to upload zip file, you can change files manually right on your ftp
