September 13, 201313 yr Can you help me with this please? I have just moved a site for a customer to a new domain, though the site seems to be set up in a very strange folder structure. Typically I place all the site pages in the route folder for that domain, though they're not present on this site, and the previous web designer only provided photoshop files of the design and NOT a final version of the site. This is causing formatting issues and as I'm unable to locate the pages, I can't update the css location, nor the url's for the page links. Thanks, Jim Edited September 13, 201313 yr by notsurewhatimdoing
September 13, 201313 yr Hi Jim Clearly your stylesheets are not loading, when you attempt to view the files through the "View Source" option, it doesn't return an error, instead a blank file. Without actually seeing your FTP area is difficult to advise. Maybe download everything to your local space, delete everything that has been uploaded, then bit by bit, upload files until you find out what you want.
September 13, 201313 yr there is absolutely nothing in ur css files http://www.businessplanoptimiser.co.uk/css/style3.css http://www.businessplanoptimiser.co.uk/css/normalize.css http://www.businessplanoptimiser.co.uk/css/reset.css http://www.businessplanoptimiser.co.uk/css/reset.css http://www.businessplanoptimiser.co.uk/css/tipTip.css http://www.businessplanoptimiser.co.uk/css/thickbox.css check for the css folder in ur localhost and see if css files contain codes or not Edited September 13, 201313 yr by sash_oo7
September 13, 201313 yr The Chrome Console is showing Resource interpreted as Stylesheet but transferred with MIME type text/html: "http://www.businessplanoptimiser.co.uk/css/thickbox.css". www.businessplanoptimiser.co.uk/:13 Resource interpreted as Stylesheet but transferred with MIME type text/html: "http://www.businessplanoptimiser.co.uk/css/basic-jquery-slider.css". www.businessplanoptimiser.co.uk/:12 Resource interpreted as Stylesheet but transferred with MIME type text/html: "http://www.businessplanoptimiser.co.uk/css/style3.css". www.businessplanoptimiser.co.uk/:9 Resource interpreted as Stylesheet but transferred with MIME type text/html: "http://www.businessplanoptimiser.co.uk/css/normalize.css". www.businessplanoptimiser.co.uk/:10 Resource interpreted as Stylesheet but transferred with MIME type text/html: "http://www.businessplanoptimiser.co.uk/css/tipTip.css". www.businessplanoptimiser.co.uk/:11 Resource interpreted as Stylesheet but transferred with MIME type text/html: "http://www.businessplanoptimiser.co.uk/css/reset.css". Which I am feeling is a little strange as they are clearly defined as "text/css" The only thing I could suggest is looking at your .htaccess and robots.txt files to see if these are correct.... Another solution would be to change the doctype try using this <!DOCTYPE html> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head>
September 13, 201313 yr Author Thanks for the quick responses. I'll copy the style sheets across manually, though I CANNOT find the actual site pages, have you any idea where these pages could be, as I've never seen this type of thing before?
September 13, 201313 yr Author Great that worked with the formatting, thanks for that. Now the top menu points back to the old website as the previous designer must have used the 'full path' to the domain, have you any idea how I can update this to be a 'local path', or even the new domain instead? Thanks for your help.
September 13, 201313 yr I'll copy the style sheets across manually, though I CANNOT find the actual site pages, have you any idea where these pages could be, as I've never seen this type of thing before? Content management system?
September 13, 201313 yr Well, I don't know for sure. You're saying there's no content in the files you've got. What file type are the files? Could you provide a screenshot of the file structure? Edit: Yes, it's build on ExpressionEngine by the looks of it: http://builtwith.com/businessplanoptimiser.co.uk Edited September 13, 201313 yr by andy9l
September 16, 201313 yr The BUiltWith chrome extension is showing that the site is using Expression Engine. Not something I have seen/used before but I looking at the code the links are full URLs back to the old domain if you can find the files then look for the "blue-header" div and see what the code looks like in there
