Editing a Template in HTML Programs: Adobe Dreamweaver or Microsoft Expression Web
Once you have the template downloaded to your computer, you may open the HTML editor program of your choice (Dreamweaver, . Expression Web, etc.). If you are on Windows Vista or Windows 7 and have User Account Control turned on, you will need to open your HTML editor by right-clicking on it and selecting on "Run as Administrator", or else your changes will not be saved. Once you have the HTML editor open, go to File -> Open. Then browse through your PC's files to open the following file on your computer: C:\Program Files\FORTUNE3 Wizard\Templates\TemplateName\content.html The Template's Folder Path should be located in this path: TIP: TemplateName = This is what you entered in the "Name of New Template" field when you first downloaded the template. Make your changes to the template within this file and then simply save the file. Once you save the file, you are finished, the next time you upload your site you will see the changes you made to the Template on your site. Needless to say, this content.html file is the main file that represents your custom template, along with other graphic and style sheet files that are in the Template's Folder Path. Within the content.html Template file: Link to other web pages that you have on your site by specifying only the page name followed by .html (exclude the Folder Path. i.e. <A HREF="pagename.html">Enter Link Text Here</A>). Link to any of the 'FORTUNE3 Shopping Cart & E-Commerce Wizard software' auto-generated web-pages by using an of the following tokens: {f3index}, {f3products}, {f3specials}, {f3shop}, {f3about}, {f3contact}, {f3search}, {f3terms}, {f3privacy}, {f3faq} and {f3orderstatus} as the link addresses for the links (exclude the Folder Path and the .html file extension. i.e. <A HREF="{f3privacy}">Privacy Policy</A>). The following chart depicts each link token that is available within FORTUNE3:
Refer to new images and animated objects being incorporated by specifying the file name followed by the corresponding file extension (.gif, .jpg, .jpeg, .png, .fla, .swf, .swd, .spl / exclude the Folder Path. i.e. <IMG SRC="imagename.gif..">). Please do not use uppercase letters in the filename. Any uppercase letters in the filename will automatically be converted to all lowercase letters to avoid errors. If your filename does have uppercase letters, please enter the full URL of the file (in the SRC tag) in order to keep the uppercase letters (<img src="http://www.yourdomain.com/ImageName.jpg">) . Folder Path for the 'Template Design' - where to put your template's images and files: Incorporate all of the new images and animated objects referenced in the HTML code by saving their corresponding files (.gif, .jpg, .jpeg, .jpe, .png, .fla, .swf, .swd, .spl formats) directly into the specified Template's Folder Path - do not use sub-folders. The Template's Folder Path also contains other files, mostly image files and a style sheet (for example, the Add to Cart image is in this folder, called btnadd.gif). You may change any of the files and images in the Template's Folder Path. When you upload, the changed images will be reflected on your site. If you would like to edit the fonts in the style sheet, you may do so by editing the style.css file that is located in the Template's Folder Path, but in order for your modified style sheet to get uploaded to your site, you must also make sure that style.css is selected as the "Style Name" in the "Fonts & Styles" section of the Wizard. Any new images or files you add to the template must have the image files located directly in the Template's Folder Path: C:\Program Files\FORTUNE3 Wizard\Templates\TemplateName\ without any sub-folders, and referred to within the HTML code as simply <img src="file.ext".....>. Please do not use uppercase letters in the filename. Any uppercase letters in the filename will automatically be converted to all lowercase letters to avoid errors. If your filename does have uppercase letters, please enter the full URL of the file (in the SRC tag) in order to keep the uppercase letters (<img src="http://www.yourdomain.com/ImageName.jpg">).
