kristaleeann Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Hi!!! I bought a theme from templatemonster which was OSCommerce and I had so many problems so I then got another template from TemplateMonster.com and it is e-commerce.. .However, this time I told them I didn't want to pay them for installation since I had already had so many problems!!! So, I was sent a zip folder with all the info to install my theme.. I need assistance to put all the info in the zip folder into prestashop.. Please contact me right away, I have already been waiting for a month and I hope that I can get this template site up and going asap! Sincerely, Kristalee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCP90 Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Hi kristaleeann, If you want to install this theme automatically, use "Import/export a theme module" in back office, click configure on the module and then navigate to where the zip file is, upload it and follow on screen prompts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will try it and see, I am new to prestashop so I don't know where everything is, but I am slowly finding things Thanks a lot!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCP90 Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 when you are logged into back office, paste Import/export into the search at the top and it will find the module, click it and make sure it is enabled and then just select configure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RCP90 Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 (edited) You are actually using PrestaShop? I only ask because you mention you bought an OSCommerce template before? To access the back office of your site you need to go to yoursite.com/admin yoursite.com being your domain name and /admin being the name of your admin folder. The reason i ask if you are using PrestaShop is because your website link in your profile is running on OSCommerce.

RCP90 Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 i can see that the theme has been installed, but some themes require that you change the default image sizes. In the themes zip folder is there anything that looks like documentation? If there is take a look at that and is should give theme specific installation instructions including any image specific changes you may need to make. Once you have found/read installation documentation and do need to change the image sizes then go to back office > preferences > images and then change the dimensions as specified on the documentation 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kristaleeann Posted May 14, 2013 Author Share Posted May 14, 2013 Also, you can check this site out for super low cost logo design Great, now my next question is... I was to have my grand opening almost a month ago and I have been stuck trying to figure out oscommerce and with no help, I had to switch templates bc I couldn't wait any longer. Do you guys know of anyone who does site work for an affordable cost? i've already put so much money into my business, i just don't have a lot more to add to my budget.

benjamin utterback Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Hi! You would have to ask oscommerce about that. We are PrestaShop, and this is the PrestaShop forum. For PrestaShop help, I would post here in the Job Offer section http://www.prestashop.com/forums/forum/76-paid-modules-themes-job-offers-services/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
