Hello everyone,
After 2 months of hard-work Eye-wink I'm proudly presenting my first UC shop artofamber.
This shop will be like a window on the Internet for small amber gallery in Poland.
We are adding the products still but the majority of functions is completed (I still hope for some Polish payment gateway module though).
I would be very grateful if you could post some opinions.

Greetings

Bartek

Re: Art Of Amber

Very nice design. I'd be interested in hearing about your experiences with the Localizer and translating your content.

Some things I've noticed:

  • Spelling error in English Catalog: "Pendents" should be "Pendants"
  • Prices and titles are the same color as the tables, making them invisible.
  • What's the significance of December 7th?

Whenever you're ready, feel free to make a Live Site page. Good job.

Re: Re: Art Of Amber

Thanks guys for your feedback, I corrected today few minor bugs and spelling errors but I still didn't resolve the problem with Opera/FireFox (thx mike for that screen!)
It's the css compatibility problem which happens because I used filter:alpha(opacity=20); for background to make that nice effect but Opera/FF gives that opacity also to text making it almost impossible to read.
The 2px difference seems to be little easier problem.

Anyway thanks for your comments, thanks to them I still have some pleasent "ubercart" work to do Smiling

Ohh Lyle, 7th December was I think the day that that amber gallery was founded, but I'm pretty sure that it has nothing to do with Pearl Harbour...

Greetings from Poland

Mackay, I'm not a css

Mackay,

I'm not a css expert, but have you tried setting the text in another div, and giving it a higher z-index.

I've had good luck separating other items, but I've never tried using filters.

Another thought, Try using a

Another thought,

Try using a css conditional statement. You could set the default css file to work with the others, and then do a ie conditional statement to make IE work.

Mike, thanks alot for that

Mike,

thanks alot for that css conditional statement idea. I used it and it works really great. I simply put embeded css style definitions in that conditional comments for IE greater and equal 6:
<!--[if gte IE 6]>
<style TYPE="text/css">
<!--
.odd #product
{
background-color: #c4b79d;
filter:alpha(opacity=20);
-moz-opacity: 0.2;
opacity: 0.2;
color: #beaa88;
vertical-align:middle;
text-decoration:none;
}
-->
<![endif]-->

Now the opacity is working only on IE6 and greater but my girlfriend (css is her hobby Eye-wink will try to make it work on Firefox/Opera too.
Anyway I also managed to fix this way the 2px difference mentioned by you before. Thanks! Smiling

Lyle you were asking about experiences with the Localization module. I would say it's a great fun implementing it - some things are easy - like translating contents - I had no problems with it, even though I don't have to translate every node because someone else will do it.
But there are some tricks that have to be done with cart buttons (next, submit order and so on...) I don't know if messing with code is necessary here but I decided to change cart.module a bit.
I have still a problem with catalog, cause there is a difference in spelling (english - catalog, polish/german - katalog). I only managed to change the block value, but after jumping on catalog page there is still Catalog all the time. (http://artofamber.com/en/catalog) After small "investigation" I figured that taxonomy module is responsible for that. Am I right? The problem is that my drupal/ubercart knowledge is really tiny and I don't know how to fix that. Maybe you could help?

Thanks for your support on that guys, I really appreciate that!

Re: Mike, thanks alot for that

I think I found the problem. In uc_catalog.module, you can take out lines 546 and 548 (keep 547). You might have to do the same tweaks there that you did for the catalog block's title.

I don't remember why I had that if() statement in the first place, so I think I'll take it out.

You were right Lyle, I commented those two lines and it translates now perfectly Smiling Thanks!

Going to have to get into some real theming to catch up a bit. Very elegant.

Re: Re: Re: Art Of Amber

I guess I'm a bad American to not remember Pearl Harbor. Sticking out tongue I figured it was something like a founding date, but I didn't see any words to indicate that.
