I just installed the Bootstrap template into my Magento install. I uploaded the files, went to System > Design and added the design change. The frontend of my site now displays the theme, but when I go to CMS > Pages and select a page, the Layout dropdown still shows the default/default layouts, not the ones as defined in app/design/frontend/bootstrap/default/layout/page.xml
Any ideas why they are not appearing? Thanks!
It's because Page.xml doesn't define the CMS page layouts for that drop down menu. You can find more information on it here;

This Inchoo post is a good way to add your own CMS page layout types via a super simple module (one of the answers in the above link takes a similar approach);

I have created a Widget, which inserts a form, with a WYSIWYG editor.
But the WYSIWYG editor in the Catalog Section, doesn't provide the Widget button on its editor.
I tried pasting the widget code {{widget type="module/widget_name"}}, into the description area, but it didn't work.
I have written a short tut, on how to enable the mentioned feature:

I am a newbie in magento. I want to replace the footer area in magento default theme with just an image and for this I edited the footer.phtml file. I removed all the links Contact Us and etc. But how to replace the default blue image from the bottom that is seen on the magento home page using default theme.
You'll have to edit the CSS for the default theme in that case. Also, depending on how you want the footer to look you should also edit the footer html code to fit your design requirements.
Assuming you are using the completely default theme, check this css file for the .footer tags:
skin/frontend/default/default/css/style.css
You can change all your CSS there.
Would suggest you first activate Template hints from System>Configuration>Developer>
Now look at the footer area to see from which theme the footer.phtml is being loaded. Edit the related CSS and you should be good to go
Would also suggest you empty the Magento Cache after making any css changes as suggested
I am using Magento 1.4.1.1 to build an online shop for my client, where he wants to have a left-side menu for some cms pages. The menu has the following characteristics:
The links in the menu are themselves cms pages.
The menu itself shall be a cms page.
The links in menu will be based on what cms page has been requested.
Create a static CMS block. Use as many blocks as you like, a block can include other blocks with the code shown at the bottom of that link.
Include them in each CMS page's XML layout.
Why does my page.xml file not change the layout of the homepage?? It changes the layouts of the other pages, but not the homepage. Does the homepage have its own layout xml file??
Figured it out. You have to go to the admin panel -> CMS -> and change the layout for the homepage to match your layout.
For example:
Mine was not working b/c page.xml was using a single column layout whereas the homepage was using a two column layout. - it goofed it all up.
Just match the layouts.
