I was able to get a block added on the left for the banners on the category pages (not quite sure how since I tried so many things) but there appears to be no way to add a grid or block to those pages on the right of the main content. I wanted these banners on the right as they are now on my old site....but I cannot add a grid. I went into widget mode and got one added right where I wanted it but it does not appear on the pages at all. *sigh*

Any suggestions??

It had something to do with that one product. Deleted it and then the categories were visible again. Weird weird!

You will only see this checkbox if you are logged in as admin. Normal customers want see the checkbox.

Ok that is wonderful news.....thank you It had me concerned

Try to change the header background in the Theme Editor. As for the extra line, it seems there is the empty grid without any blocks. Please check it in the block manager.

Thanks so very much I did find that empty grid....and without thinking I did delete it....which now I wish I had kept it so I could add a horizontal rule between the main content and the links below. I tried adding a grid and a block below the main content....and a horizontal rule just will not show up. I tried adding black as the color and a height thickness.....no luck *sigh*

Also I cannot find anywhere to get rid of those red blocks in the header. I changed the header area color and added a pattern to the body....but the red blocks are still there. If I change the size of the top menu block, they get longer or move to compensate. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to do this. I know this cart is far better than the old versions, but it is so advanced for those of us who aren't fluent in tech talk

You are welcome! Unfortunately, your latest request is not quite clear. Please provide us with the screenshots.

If you click on the link in my post above it will take you to the test home page. You will see the red boxes on each side of the header area and the extra wide horizontal line near the bottom.

Thanks so very much for your help
