Hi Garry

To consolidate the two into information:

Go to includes\templates\yourtemplate\sideboxes\tpl_information.php

<?php
/**

 */
  $content = '';
  $content .= '<div id="' . str_replace('_', '-', $box_id . 'Content') . '" class="sideBoxContent">';
  $content .= "\n" . '<ul style="margin: 0; padding: 0; list-style-type: none;">' . "\n";
  for ($i=0; $i<sizeof($information); $i++) {
    $content .= '<li>' . $information[$i] . '</li>' . "\n";
  }
  for ($i=0; $i<sizeof($more_information); $i++) {
    $content .= '<li>' . $more_information[$i] . '</li>' . "\n" ;
  }
  $content .= '</ul>' .  "\n";
  $content .= '</div>';
?>

Then go to includes\modules\sideboxes\yourtemplate\information.php

<?php

This is obviously based on a new install, so please compare it to your own code if you have already made alterations to these files.
