sinderellaman.com/sinmen ...... below the slider... if you view this in google chrome you can see the link...... ie just brings up a 404 error in a big box |
That didn't come with Dolphin. It seems to be a part of that slider code.... which was added very poorly by whoever did it, btw. My opinions expressed on this site, in no way represent those of Boonex or Boonex employees. |
what do you mean added very poorly |
The message is part of the 404 being returned by the server. When you don't set up a 404 page to show, the server presents it and often display the server being used. You need to fix the 404 error with your site, either remove the code that is looking for those images or add the images to the proper location on the server. Geeks, making the world a better place |
You still have the same 404 error going on. I told you how to fix it here: http://www.boonex.com/forums/topic/help-w-danielmarseille-template-because-he-wont.htm
" There is something trying to load from this location '/BannerHome/BannerHome.html' that of course is not there.
If you go to http://sinderellaman.com/sinmen//BannerHome/BannerHome.html you will see all the broken links.(notice the 2 // after sinmen?)
The problem, is that when you right-click the broken images, you will see the properties are pointing to here:
http://sinderellaman.com/BannerHome/images/layer1.png
(click this link and you will see the same 404 error)
So.. in order to resolve this, you will need to create a directory called BannerHome in the sinderellaman.com root, create images folder within the BannerHome directory and upload the images needed there... OR
Find the destination of the images within the code and update it properly." Since this is a duplicate topic, I am hiding the other one Nothing to see here |
If you are unsure what files to edit or what to do, then you will need someone to go in and fix it for you. Let me know if you need help and if so you will have to PM me how to access the site. Don't do it here, PM only. Geeks, making the world a better place |
RE: what do you mean added very poorly
All that iframed banner stuff has broken links. If the banner stuff came with the template, then the template is poorly designed. If you turned your caching off, I'd be able to tell you more about it, but it's impossible to look at with caching turned on. That LiteSpeed link is just part of your servers default 404 page that is appearing in the iframe, because the iframe is referencing a file that does not exist. You get the server's default 404 page when you don't have a custom one set up on your server for this site.

I see.........I think its broken links for the arrow keys for the slider.... as you can tell im not a designer.......I just sell ideas and then hire designers to create what Im thinking............. but im learning I guess, lol....... ill turn cache off and you can let me know |
Yea, it means upload the missing files to BannerHome like you were told several times before. |
That template seems to come with files that should be placed in the /BannerHome folder, referenced to your sites root. Most of them are missing. Suggest you finish uploading the template and see what happens. My opinions expressed on this site, in no way represent those of Boonex or Boonex employees. |
I don't know what the missing files are, I cant find the file either.......I have looked........ ive tried everything I was told to do.... |
im guessing the files that I need are not included in my download...... so therefor I just need to get in touch with the vendor.....but Its been a few days and no reply .. |
If this is a template from the market, that you can download, then you can download it to your computer and ftp them up. I am guessing that you may not be able to do that. Yes, the vendor would be the one to fix this since it is their template. Let me know if you don't hear back from the vendor and I will see about helping you with this. Geeks, making the world a better place |
it came with instruction etc.... I followed them exactly......... a few items are missing....... I used ftp to upload them..... |
I have better luck building from scratch using drupal...... but it takes me awhile to do so.........I assumed by using dolphin and the modules available I could get it done faster... I found a file called icons that's empty that im assuming are the missing files for the arrows etc.. to nav the slider.... the vendor I got the template on his page says he will install the template or I could install it and he would reply to emails "fast"......... if 2 to 3 days is fast I would hate for him to take his time. |
You could download the missing files from his demo site. They are there. But if they are on his demo I'm sure they are in the package too. |
If the template is missing parts then you can ask for a refund. You can also put in a dispute in the dispute forum if he does not answer within a reasonable time. You can also try downloading the template again to see if the missing files have been noted and added to the market. Geeks, making the world a better place |
RE: im guessing the files that I need are not included in my download...... s I refuse to believe that. If files were missing, other people would have complained by now. Download the product again, and check again. My opinions expressed on this site, in no way represent those of Boonex or Boonex employees. |
@sinderellaman you say that you have followed the instructions exactly, are you sure? because there is NO file named icon (or folder named icon), i have this template and BannerHome is separate from the main template, when you downloaded the template there would have been a separate zip file for BannerHome, once you unzipped it, that folder and all files and folders inside that folder should have been uploaded to your root, is this what you did? |
He managed to upload some of it. http://sinderellaman.com/sinmen/BannerHome/BannerHome.html Where the rest of it ended up, one can only guess, and how his home page slider even works at all is a mystery. My opinions expressed on this site, in no way represent those of Boonex or Boonex employees. |

They are in the wrong folder. The template expects BannerHome in root. |
/BannerHome is in the site root My opinions expressed on this site, in no way represent those of Boonex or Boonex employees. |
/BannerHome is in the site root
Not on his site. |
So basically a misunderstanding on how to install the template. @sinderellaman, I answered your PM, I will be happy to install the template for you. Geeks, making the world a better place |
Drupal is a different animal than Dolphin and to tell the truth I did not like Drupal; I found Joomla to be a better product. Geeks, making the world a better place |
RE: Not on his site. The site root is: http://sinderellaman.com/sinmen This url is valid: http://sinderellaman.com/sinmen/BannerHome/BannerHome.html Therefore, /BannerHome exists in his site's root. If perchance you meant that the template expects the BannerHome directory in the domain root, then no it isn't there. My opinions expressed on this site, in no way represent those of Boonex or Boonex employees. |
its fixed, I have no clue what was wrong because im not a programmer. but one of the moderators fixed it for me. I build things with my hands not with code.... but im learning. thanks to everyone for your replys |
RE: its fixed
I hate to break the news to you, but no it isn't. The template is not working as intended. My opinions expressed on this site, in no way represent those of Boonex or Boonex employees. |
Site root? site's root
Come on. root is /
CSS paths are absolute in template. |
its fixed,
Move BannerHome to root. Then it's fixed. |
RE:

Move BannerHome to root. Then it's fixed. You are beginning to annoy me; Yes the domain root is / But his fckn Dolphin site root is /sinmen read the first post for cripes sake, and stop giving bad advice like moving a template folder above the DOLPHIN SITE ROOT My opinions expressed on this site, in no way represent those of Boonex or Boonex employees. |
You are the one telling shit. CSS paths are absolute in this template. |
As far as I can deduce, this template must require you to paste custom slider code in admin.... is that correct? If that is indeed the case, it is possible that the /BannerHome folder was reference by using /BannerHome, where it should have been referenced as such: <bx_url_root>BannerHome My opinions expressed on this site, in no way represent those of Boonex or Boonex employees. |
RE: You are the one telling shit. CSS paths are absolute in this template. No... I'm trying to expose the problem in it's entirety. Everyone else, including yourself, seems to be content putting a bandaid on it. Maybe in your world it makes sense for a template to reference a folder above the site root, but not in mine, so run along....you are not helping My opinions expressed on this site, in no way represent those of Boonex or Boonex employees. |

I didn't make the template. Go to demo site to see how it works and quit spamming this thread. |
Houston your right, we have a problem........ the arrow keys are still missing. I know that much.... but at least its gone. I just need it to look good for a day to present to investors then ill get someone to fix everything. |

Yea don't listen to the guys knowing what they talk about and follow the one shouting loudest. |
As far as I can deduce, this template must require you to paste custom slider code in admin.... is that correct?
No this is not correct! you only need to do that if you want to replace the original dolphin splash, but there is no need for this, please read the next few lines that are taken straight from the BannerHome install instructions,
Installation: 1. Copy the 'BannerHome' folder into .root/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2. Two possibilities - A - If you want the banner to be included in the template - you have nothing to do - B - If you want to use the banner to replace splash in admin/Settings/Basic Settings
In the template: tmpl_blackisblack Delete " page_1.html" And add the code in the file "Code-Embed_BannerHome" In admin/Settings/Basic Settings |
sinderellaman, if you want to try a different dark template, two are attached, No charge
P.S. Use NeonGreenEx NeonGreen will require you to enter a bunch of language strings to make full use of the full width drop down menus. My opinions expressed on this site, in no way represent those of Boonex or Boonex employees. |
HL are they free for everyone |
HL is correct here, the template was not properly installed. When root is mentioned in the directions, they are talking about the directory in which the Dolphin files are sitting. In this case the site is sitting in a subdirectory sinmen; sinderellaman.com/sinmen. Therefore the root in this case would be the directory sinmen that is holding the Dolphin files; that is where the BannerHome needs to be placed. it will then be /sinmen/BannerHome. Geeks, making the world a better place |
HL are they free for everyone The second one with the language keys is a neat concept. The only thing is that the menu has to be at the top of the page where the template places it. It is possible to put anything in the keys, so you can have a menu with an embedded video or graphics. Geeks, making the world a better place |
RE: HL are they free for everyone No. They are free for everyone except Pukener. He annoys me. My opinions expressed on this site, in no way represent those of Boonex or Boonex employees. |
/sinmen/BannerHome
that is exactly where it is, so i can't see why it wouldn't work because that's all you have to do, upload the BannerHome folder to there and the banners should appear (and work) straight away as stated in the instructions i posted |
/sinmen/BannerHome
that is exactly where it is, so i can't see why it wouldn't work because that's all you have to do, upload the BannerHome folder to there and the banners should appear (and work) straight away as stated in the instructions i posted Was the caches cleared afterwards? /cache /cache_public and the cache clear in admin? Geeks, making the world a better place |
CLO, I didn't find a Page_1.html file in the template folder of sinman's site so I just assumed that. However, there is no need to place ANY folders outside of the template folder itself, so I have to assume that the template creator did not know how to reference folders and files relative to the site root. for instance: instead of the template referencing: /BannerHome/BannerHome.html it should be: <bx_url_root/>BannerHome/BannerHome.html Then all the files and folder stay inside the template folder.... and we lose that stupid iframe code. Then again, what the hell would I know about this sort of thing. My opinions expressed on this site, in no way represent those of Boonex or Boonex employees. |
