    section layout all wrong

    Hi
    Hope some one can help.

    I have one section which displays wrong - all others are fie. All layouts are exactly the same so I am puzzled to why this section wants to display differently to all the others.

    The wrong one is
    http://www.ukcurtainpoles.co.uk/acat...ain-Poles.html

    But is should look like the others eg
    http://www.ukcurtainpoles.co.uk/acat...-Poles-p1.html

    Does anyone know why it is doing this?

    The only changes I have made on the website is adding my Twitter timeline and I had to add some script. Could it be this?

    Thanks for any help

    kind regards
    Joanne

    Looks like you've set the problem section to have a product layout based on a full product layout which includes the Product Description instead of a Product Summary layout.

    Look in a good sections Section Details / Layout / Product for the Product Layout setting. Check what you've set for that in the problematic section.

      Hi
      I have had a look at the sections in design view and the problem section has code

      <actinic:variable name="HeaderText" />

      and nothing more. Whereas other sections have the following

      <!DOCTYPE HTML>
      <html>
      <head>
      <title><actinic:variable name="PageTitle" ></title>
      <actinic:variable name="MetaTags" >

        The stuff your "seeing" in Design view may be misleading you. The code you see depends on where you click in the design preview. On one you may have clicked on the header area and the other shows the overall layout. They probably aren't relevant.

        What did you find when you looked at the the layout settings as per my previous post?

          You have another problem on all your pages. All your pages HTML ends with:
          Code:
          <script>window.twttr = (function (d, s, id) {
          var t, js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];
          if (d.getElementById(id)) return;
          js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id; js.src= "https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js";
          fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
          return window.twttr || (t = { _e: [], ready: function (f) { t._e.push(f) } });
          }(document, "script", "twitter-wjs"));</script></
          That </ is a truncated HTML tag. It looks like someone tried to paste in some twitter code before the </body> tag and has accidentally deleted some layout code. I'd guess that the </ should be replaced by </body></html>

            Hi
            I have looked at the layout and they are all the same - Classic Product Layout

            Since, I have imported a snap shot from a couple of days ago to see if it would help and it hasn't changed anything.

            The Twitter code you mentioned - I put on yesterday or day before but now I have imported a snap shot, the Twitter code is no longer there.

            The same problem is there though with the layout.

            Any suggestions?

            Thanks for your help
            Thank you

              Unlikely as they display completely differently.

              Also when you say "I have looked at the layout" we can't be sure where you were looking.

              Were you looking in Section Details / Layout / Product / Product Layout?

                Also when you put the Twitter code back (presumably into your overall layout) , make sure you put it just above </head> and don't delete any existing code. Relavent code to paste is:
                Code:
                <script>
                window.twttr = (function (d, s, id) {
                var t, js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];
                if (d.getElementById(id)) return;
                js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id; js.src= "https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js";
                fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
                return window.twttr || (t = { _e: [], ready: function (f) { t._e.push(f) } });
                }(document, "script", "twitter-wjs"));
                </script>

                  Hi

                  I start in the content tree and click on one of the sections

                  Then in the section details window I click on layout which then displays all the layouts (I presume). I then look at the Product - Product layout.

                  The problem section and some others were Image on left text wrapped round. And other sections were Classic product layout. So I have changed them all to Classic product layout. (Though none of them look any different)

                  Thanks for your help. Maybe easier if you take a look on my computer if you let me know how much you would charge me?
                  Thank you

                    Perhaps the products in the problem section aren't using "Use Parent" for their product layout. Check each product's layout.

                      Hi
                      The product layout is using parent - classic product layout

                      I havent been aware of any problem unti I had a go at altering the header and elements in the side bar, also adding my Twitter timeline. So I may have done something wrong to make this happen?
                      Thank you

                        I could well be wrong on this as I don't change layouts very often but aren't those section pages?

                        It looks to me as if you might have selected a product layout template for the 'Section List Layout'. That's what I'd be looking at rather than what's been selected for the product layout.

                          Hi Mike.

                          The layout for sections and layouts for products are set in this problem section the exactly the same as sections and products in other sections which are displaying absolutely fine. ??? Puzzled to why this problem section would display its products differently.

                          All the layouts for the products are using parent which is set at classic product layout at the moment, but to be honest, even if I change ANY layouts, nothing changes. All the layouts stay the same. It is as if they are all stuck in the same layout.

                          Any help on this is appreciated - thanks

                          Jo

                            Is this section created using the original Section > Product Layouts? i.e. to add a new product page you create a new section and then add the product within it?

                            If it is, then the layout I think could be causing the problem is the 'Section List Layout' that is selected for the section page that the product sits within.

                            i.e. you have the following sections that the "Swish Romantica 28mm Grained Finish 160cm Pole Antique Gold" sits within.

                            Online Catalogue | Curtain Poles | Wooden Curtain Poles | Gilt, Gilded and Limed | Swish Romantica 28mm Grained Finish 160cm Pole Antique Gold

                            Select the final section that the product sits within , not the product itself, and check the 'section list layout'. I think that is the one that could be wrong.

                              Hi.
                              When "Gilt, Guilded and Limed section is selected in the content tree, section details are as follows.

                              Site
                              Overall Page layout Use Parent (=Full Width Header and two sidebars)

                              Section
                              Bottom Sub Section List Layout Use Parent (=Tabular Sub Section List)
                              Column Count for first row of section lists Use Parent (=1)
                              Column Count for Section Lists Use Parent (=1)
                              Main Product Area Layout Use Parent (=Section Page Body)
                              Section Link Layout Use Parent (=Compact Section List)
                              Section Pagination Navigation Links Use Parent (=Standard Pagination Navigation Links)
                              Top Sub Section List Layout Use Parent (=No Layout)

                              Product
                              Column Count for products Use Parent (=3)
                              Price Layout Use Parent (=Standard Tax inclusive Price)
                              Product Image Layout Use Parent (=Standard Product Image)
                              Product Layout Use Parent (=Classic Product Layout)


                              Can you point out which one you refer to that needs changing please.
                              Also, I will point out, that these settings are the same as other sections which are displaying correctly??

                              BUT, whenever I do try to change any layout on any section, nothing happens!
