It's ok, i figured it out.

i created a folder under /includes/templates/mytemplate/sideboxes/ and copied the below as tpl_information.php for the home button:

you can remove the site map in the admin area, but i wanted it, but didn't want it in this box.

not sure if anyone will want this, but here you go.

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

and for the additional links i amended information.php with my own, this puts all the extra pages, page_2 etc, under the same box:
/var/www/html/includes/modules/sideboxes/mytemplate/template.php

I would of taken the easy way out and used the switch to turn ON or OFF the Site Map link in the Information Sidebox located in the Configuration ... Define Pages ...

Define Site Map Status
Enable the Defined Site Map Link/Text?
0= Link ON, Define Text OFF
1= Link ON, Define Text ON
2= Link OFF, Define Text ON
3= Link OFF, Define Text OFF

What version of Zen Cart are you running?

Hi,

it's 1.36...

i thought doing it my way was best as i wanted to customise the information sidebox anyway.
