If I understand what you mean by the common use of "Blank" in this instance meaning to open this in a new window the followwing is the std form:

Code:

---

<a HREF="your_link.???" TARGET="_blank">Your Link Name</a>

---

in includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/logo_sidebox_defines.php

find:

define('LOGO_SIDEBOX_LINK', 'http://your_link.com/');

You can then add you link.

save the file and upload to your server.

OK, Clyde - What am I missing here? :blink: My logo_sidebox is operating but I can't seem to make the link active. Here's my logo_sidebox_defines.php:

Yep, that did it! Thanks Clyde :thumbsup:

As necessary or when the urge hits me. li....rig...n...:sleep:

What is a logo sidebox? What logos? Where can I see a sample of this? Where do I find the download?

Its a sidebox in which you can place a logo (any logo you choose)

its available in the downloads section here:

www.zen-cart.com/index.php?main_page=product_contrib_info&cPath=40_52&products_id=405

You can see a sample here: Top Left sidebox

Can you explain exactly what you are trying to accomplish?

Hi Clyde,
I'm obviously quite new at this & I need help getting my image & hyperlink to appear. I thought I had followed all of the directions, but when I try to insert my image or hyperlink, I get something like a "parse error on line 27 and/or 28". Any ideas how to get my image to appear? I've been looking all over and I can't find the answer...

You didn't define an image to use. make sure to save the image in:
includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/images/

define('BOX_HEADING_LOGO_SIDEBOX', 'Payment Methods');
define('LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE_WIDTH', '125');
define('LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE_HEIGHT', '125');
define('LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE', 'YOUR_IMAGE_NAME.gif');
define('LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE_TEXT', 'Pay quickly and easily with PayPal, using your credit
card or bank funds. No PayPal account required!');

I tried to place an image here: define('LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE', 'image.gif'); but nothing actually shows up in Firefox. In IE, it shows as a blank box, so I took it out for now.

Also, on this line, define('LOGO_SIDEBOX_LINK', 'http://your_link.com/'); I tried to place a linked image and in IE, the text runs out of the box and into the images/wording in the center of the page.

Sorry, I accidentially cut my last post short! :-)

As I said, make sure your image is located in:

includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/images/YOUR_IMAGE.gif

Open includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/sideboxes/tpl_logo_sidebox.php.

find the following lines of code and edit as necessary.

Code:

---

// Link Option - uncomment this if you intend to use the logo as a link
//$logoimage = '<a href="' . LOGO_SIDEBOX_LINK . '">' . zen_image($template->get_template_dir(LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE, DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'images'). '/' . LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE, LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE_TEXT) . '</a>';

//comment this out if you use the above link option.
$logoimage = zen_image($template->get_template_dir(LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE, DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'images'). '/' . LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE, LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE_TEXT);

---

My image is added here, but no change when I uploaded. There's still no image and when viewing in IE, the text extends far beyond the box.
includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/images/pplogo.gif

Open includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/sideboxes/tpl_logo_sidebox.php.

find the following lines of code and edit as necessary.

I don't understand what I'm supposed to do here:

Code:

---

// Link Option - uncomment this if you intend to use the logo as a link
//$logoimage = '<a href="' . LOGO_SIDEBOX_LINK . '">' . zen_image($template->get_template_dir(LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE, DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'images'). '/' . LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE, LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE_TEXT) . '</a>';

//comment this out if you use the above link option.

Let's get your image showing.

You're using the classic template, so make sure your image is located in:

includes/templates/classic/images/pplogo.gif

Clyde picked up on Classic (default) Template being installed. Makes my previous post moot. :smile:

BTW, Clyde, any difference between using your Mod and the Blank Sidebox Mod? Haven't used yours but have used the other and can see where the BS mod can do the same things, basically.

Other than not having to write all the define statements from scratch and adding the necessary code in the tpl_(file).php to render the image. You could use either.

Clyde, thanks, that made the image appear like it should. :-) That's definitely progress! I want it to be a clickable image that opens in a new window. Here is the info from the PayPal site - not sure if it's what I need to use:

<!-- PayPal Logo --><table border="0" cellpadding="10" cellspacing="0" align="center"><tr><td align="center"></td></tr>
<tr><td align="center"><a href="#" onclick="javascript:window.open('https://www.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=xpt/cps/popup/OLCWhatIsPayPal-outside','olcwhatispaypal','toolbar=no, location=no, directories=no, status=no, menubar=no, scrollbars=yes, resizable=yes, width=400, height=350');"><img src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/bnr/vertical_solution_PPeCheck.gif" border="0" alt="Solution Graphics"></a></td></tr></table><!-- PayPal Logo -->

Let me do some checking/testing on this.

Thanks so much for your patience and help!!

I have a sort of unrelated question - can you have more than one custom logo sidebox? If you can have a second box, can it contain more than one logo? I was trying to think of a clever way to do my link exchanges. I thought maybe clickable images with links to their sites (that open in new windows) would be neat.

Why not try Links Manager available in the downloads section

Hi Clyde,
Have you had a chance to mull this over? I have my PayPal logo in it's own sidebox, but I wanted it to be clickable. I still haven't figured it out...any ideas? TIA!

Have you tried the paypal verified logo sidebox available in the downloads section

Thanks, Clyde, that worked perfectly! I was able to change the logo & make it clickable, just like I wanted. I also figured out how to change the sidebox header & the logo size. It looks great! Thanks again for all of your help!! :-)

(OT, but I just realized you are in Colorado - me, too!)

Thx,

Glad to help.

clydejones I hope you are doing well. I have a 2 questions for you if you don't mind. I added my logo box and my logo picture is showing. How do I center it, and how do I add a hyper-link . I have read what to do but I seem not to be able to get it to work. Thank you

How do I center it:

add the following to your stylesheet.css
#logosideboxContent { text-align: center;}


how do I add a hyper-link:
Open includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/logo_sidebox_defines.php
Change the highlighted portion to suit you needs.

define('LOGO_SIDEBOX_LINK', 'http://your_link.com/');

Now open includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/sideboxes/tpl_logo_sidebox.php

uncomment this line of code: remove the highlighted portion
//$logoimage = '<a href="' . LOGO_SIDEBOX_LINK . '">' . zen_image($template->get_template_dir(LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE, DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'images'). '/' . LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE, LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE_TEXT) . '</a>';

comment out this line of code: add the highlighted portion
//$logoimage = zen_image($template->get_template_dir(LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE, DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'images'). '/' . LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE, LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE_TEXT);


Save everything and upload to your server.

Thank you clydejones as alway you need a great big pat on the back. :clap:

Hi Clyde,
So sorry, I've been MIA for a while! I'm in the SE corner, near Lamar. I've been in your corner of the world several times in the last few weeks.

Anyway, I have a quick question on the Link exchange addition. I'm sure it's blatantly obbvious, but what is the name of the sidebox to activate? Everything appears like it should (I think) in the admin settings, I just can't figure out which sidebox to activate.

If you mean the sidebox for the logo sidebox then its logo_sidebox.php

If you mean the sidebox for Links Manager then its links_box.php

Oh, sorry, I'm working with the Links Manager sidebox. I have a mysterious box in my layout boxes controller. It's in RED, which makes me think there are serious errors with it. Here's what it looks like:
sideboxes/classic/WS_FTP.LOG
Since there is not a .php extension, I am assuming that is where the error lies.

Additionally, when I activate that box, I have the following infomation displayed on my web page and it is not contained in a sidebox:
2007.11.02 09:24 B C:\Documents and Settings\zen\includes\modules\sideboxes\classic\empty.txt --> 216.147.62.63 /kings-kreations-www/zen/includes/modules/sideboxes/classic empty.txt

I have checked my path names, and as far as I can tell, I have changed all of the YOUR_TEMPLATE locations to CUSTOM. Any ideas where I should look? Thanks!!

is WS_FTP the ftp client you use to upload your files?

if so WS_FTP.LOG is the log file for something you uploaded to your site.

the red just indicates that you are using the classic template on your site.

look in includes/modules/sideboxes/classic and just delete the WS_FTP.LOG file.

do this on both your PC and on your server.

OK, did that, but I still do not have a links_box.php file. Ideas?

did you rename ALL the YOUR_TEMPLATE folders to classic.

These are the files you should have:

Just remember that whenever you download ANY mod and the installation instructions indicate to change WHATEVER_TEMPLATE to match your custom template ... (it means rename them to match the template that you are using.)

THAT made a big difference! I'm almost there, but my links are not displaying correctly. Here's my site. http://www.kings-kreations.com/zen/
Additionally, on the home page at the top, right above where it says "if you can think it we can ink it", until I installed the link mod, that said something like "welcome to kings kreations", but somehow that text was replaced with the word LINK.

There are a few other things I'd like it to do.
1. I want control over putting the links in. I DO NOT want just anyone to have that ability.

2. I would like to have the list of links displayed as .jpg images, so the person viewing the site can just click on the image to view the link.

3. The linked site needs to open in a new window

4. I'd like to set it up where I DO NOT have to have categories listed. I just want the images displayed so they can be clicked on.

Can any of these things be done?

This sounds like you've got one of the links manager "language" files in the wrong place. but I'm not sure which one it would be.

1. I want control over putting the links in. I DO NOT want just anyone to have that ability.

You'd need to delete the submit link button on the link pages.

2. I would like to have the list of links displayed as .jpg images, so the person viewing the site can just click on the image to view the link.

---

Check the new version of Links Manager 3.4.0 it now allows users and or admins to use banner images for links.

3. The linked site needs to open in a new window

---

This is handled automatically by Links Manager.

4. I'd like to set it up where I DO NOT have to have categories listed. I just want the images displayed so they can be clicked on.

The way Links Manager is set up requires categories for the links listings.

:frusty:
I'm still trying to get this mod working, but in the meantime, I have a small problem I need to resolve. After I installed the link mod, it changed the header on my home page to say "Links" instead of "welcome to....". I re-uploaded the index.php file with my custom header and no change. You can see where it changed here: http://www.kings-kreations.com/zen/

Any idea how to fix that, too?

As I said, one of the Links Manager language files is located in the wrong place.

So lets take a step back. First:


manually delete these files from your server.

includes/extra_datafiles/links_manager.php
includes/functions/links.php
includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/classic/links_manager_defines.php
includes/languages/english/classic/links.php
includes/languages/english/classic/links_submit.php
includes/languages/english/classic/popup_links_help.php
includes/languages/english/html_includes/define_links.php
includes/languages/english/html_includes/define_links_submit.php
includes/languages/english/html_includes/classic/define_links.php
includes/languages/english/html_includes/classic/define_links_submit.php
includes/modules/pages/links
includes/modules/pages/links_submit
includes/modules/pages/popup_links_help
includes/modules/classic/link_listing.php
includes/modules/sideboxes/classic/links_box.php
includes/templates/classic/sideboxes/tpl_links_select.php
includes/templates/classic/templates/tpl_links_default.php
includes/templates/classic/templates/tpl_links_submit_default.php
includes/templates/classic/popup_links_help
includes/templates/classic/css/links.css
includes/templates/classic/css/links_submit.css

Once you've deleted them, check the site and see if the problem is corrected.

I've removed all of the files and it my home page header still says "Links" instead of my welcome message. Is there a place I can override that?

Check your PM

Is there a way to have it so it does show the sidebox background image, the same way that the header and footer image does not show up?

Add the following declaration to your stylesheet.css

#logosideboxContent {
background: #000; /*Change this to whatever you want the background color to be.*/
}

I don't want to be a different color. I want it so you can see the background image of the main wrapper.

Then change the declaration as follows

#logosideboxContent {
background: transparent; /*Change this to whatever you want the background color to be.*/
}

I want to use the logo sidebox as a Category Link. With 1 category it works great, but I have 5 categories. Can I duplicate everything to create 5 logo side boxes to use with my categories??

Or do I need a different contribution?

You CAN duplicate everything (you'll just have to rename all the files)

This mod was really meant to use only one logo/image.

You might want to look at the categories dressing mod available in the downloads section. This might be more appropriate for what you are trying to do.

I would like the logo link to open in a new window. What code needs to be added? I'm assuming it is in the logo_sideboxes_defines.php. Here is my site:
http://www.gameoverbeyond.com
I'd like the Retro Arcade Radio link in the top right to open in a new window so visitors can listen while still shopping at my site.
Also, can I add text to the logo sidebox under the logo? If so, where.
Ex: Listen While You Shop

Open includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/YOUR_TEMPLATE/logo_sidebox_defines.php

Modify this define Statement as indicated by the highlighted portion

define('LOGO_SIDEBOX_LINK', 'http://www.retroarcaderadio.com/" target="_blank');

Add This New Define Statement
define('LOGO_SIDEBOX_INFO_TEXT', '<br />Listen While You Shop');

Save the file and upload to your server

Open includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/sideboxes/tpl_logo_sidebox.php

Find this line of code:

$content .= $logoimage;
and immediately below Add This Line

$content .= LOGO_SIDEBOX_INFO_TEXT;

Save the file and upload to your server

Thanks clyde! Works like a champ! I appreciate the assistance, thank you again:smile:

Check this tutorial article

For some reason, I cannot get my image to show. I made sure everything was spelled correctly. I checked paths to make sure everything coincided. I also changed paths as a test putting the jpg in same directory, still a no go. I must be missing something really simple!

I am running 1.38 of Zen Cart.

Here is what I currently have:
http://www.crochetgarden.com (lower left, last box on left), has red X.

Here is what I have in my file:

While the contrib was designed for only one logo, its easy enough to edit the following files to include multiple logos.

open includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/logo_sidebox_defines.php

below the default define statements just add additional define statements for your other logos.


define('LOGO_SIDEBOX1_IMAGE_WIDTH', '125');
define('LOGO_SIDEBOX1_IMAGE_HEIGHT', '125');
define('LOGO_SIDEBOX1_IMAGE', 'test_logo1.jpg');
define('LOGO_SIDEBOX1_IMAGE_TEXT', 'My Logo1');

//this is optional if you want to use the logo as a link
//replace your_link.com with the link you choose
define('LOGO_SIDEBOX1_LINK', 'http://your_link.com/');

define('LOGO_SIDEBOX2_IMAGE_WIDTH', '125');
define('LOGO_SIDEBOX2_IMAGE_HEIGHT', '125');
define('LOGO_SIDEBOX2_IMAGE', 'test_logo2.jpg');
define('LOGO_SIDEBOX2_IMAGE_TEXT', 'My Logo2');

//this is optional if you want to use the logo as a link
//replace your_link.com with the link you choose
define('LOGO_SIDEBOX2_LINK', 'http://your_link.com/');

now open includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/sideboxes/tpl_logo_sidebox.php

add the following statements

// Link Option - uncomment this if you intend to use the logo as a link
//$logoimage1 = '<a href="' . LOGO_SIDEBOX1_LINK . '">' . zen_image($template->get_template_dir(LOGO_SIDEBOX1_IMAGE, DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'images'). '/' . LOGO_SIDEBOX1_IMAGE, LOGO_SIDEBOX1_IMAGE_TEXT, LOGO_SIDEBOX1_IMAGE_WIDTH, LOGO_SIDEBOX1_IMAGE_HEIGHT) . '</a>';

//comment this out if you use the above link option.
//$logoimage1 = zen_image($template->get_template_dir(LOGO_SIDEBOX1_IMAGE, DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'images'). '/' . LOGO_SIDEBOX1_IMAGE, LOGO_SIDEBOX1_IMAGE_TEXT, LOGO_SIDEBOX1_IMAGE_WIDTH, LOGO_SIDEBOX1_IMAGE_HEIGHT);

// Link Option - uncomment this if you intend to use the logo as a link
//$logoimage2 = '<a href="' . LOGO_SIDEBOX2_LINK . '">' . zen_image($template->get_template_dir(LOGO_SIDEBOX2_IMAGE, DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'images'). '/' . LOGO_SIDEBOX2_IMAGE, LOGO_SIDEBOX2_IMAGE_TEXT, LOGO_SIDEBOX2_IMAGE_WIDTH, LOGO_SIDEBOX2_IMAGE_HEIGHT) . '</a>';

//comment this out if you use the above link option.
//$logoimage2 = zen_image($template->get_template_dir(LOGO_SIDEBOX2_IMAGE, DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'images'). '/' . LOGO_SIDEBOX2_IMAGE, LOGO_SIDEBOX2_IMAGE_TEXT, LOGO_SIDEBOX2_IMAGE_WIDTH, LOGO_SIDEBOX2_IMAGE_HEIGHT);

// $content .= '<br />' . $logoimage1;
// $content .= '<br />' . $logoimage2;

Hope this helps.

Clyde,
I'd like to add a second logo sidebox. I am currently using one to display a link to my tag previewer. I'd like to add a second for announcements, upcoming shows, vacations, etc. What do I call the files for the second sidebox & what do I need to add/change in the stylesheet to accomplish this?

You shouldn't have to make any changes to your stylesheet.css

Clyde, I have the logo_sidebox_one showing up in my layout boxes controller, so it appears as though I have at least uploaded the files correctly. I activated the box, but it doesn't show up on the site. I cannot seem to find what I've done wrong.

Hey Clyde,
I made the changes as indicated, uploaded the edited files, and...nothing. I deleted them all & tried again, but the sidebox still doesn't show up. :censored:

logo_sidebox_one does appear in the admin & it is turned on.

My files are uploaded as shown:

includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/classic/logo_sidebox_one_defines.php

What have I done wrong? (and WHY do I have so much trouble with these darn sideboxes?!?!). I am tearing my hair out over this!!

THAT did the trick! THANK YOU!! (it looks great, BTW!)

Thansk for the Logo Sidebox mod it is great and working perfectly- It currently has an image which when clicked opens a new window that plays a short video-However, what I really want is for the click to open up a small pop up window that contains the video- Any ideas how I can achieve that?

Thanks

This thread may give you some ideas.

Also do a search for popups and/or popup windows

Thanks for the references- I have looked, but they dont give me specific instructions regardinga sidebox? I dont know where to put the Javasccript etc- Is it in the sdebox php file??

Thanks

In order to do what you are trying to achieve would require re-writing the entire contribution or creating a completely different contribution.

Hi Clyde,
I've recently installed the logo sidebox - with a couple of teething problems that i managed to rectify, but now i've hit a brick wall!

I intend to have the 'FSB' and 'Link-Up' logos - but the 'no picture' i can't seem to see why this is appearing!

Any help appreciated!

Looking at your site, I can only assume that you're missing a closing and or opening div on a sidebox that comes before the logo sidebox.

Having looked at the code for the logo sidebox the problem seems to be with the tpl_logo_sidebox.php.

These are the changes you've made

Code:

---

$content .= '<br />' . $logoimage1;
$content .= '<br />' . $logoimage2;

//$content = '';
// $content .= '<div id="' . str_replace('_', '-', $box_id . 'Content') . '" class="sideBoxContent">';

// $content .= $logoimage;

// $content .= '</div>';

---

Try making the following changes and see if it helps.

Code:

---

$content = '';
$content .= '<div id="' . str_replace('_', '-', $box_id . 'Content') . '" class="sideBoxContent">';

$content .= '<br />' . $logoimage1;
$content .= '<br />' . $logoimage2;

// $content .= $logoimage;

$content .= '</div>';

glad to help

I feel like an idiot that I cannot get this to work...trying to get my image to link (got the image in fine..), I have looked through the forums and cannot see anything I am doing wrong!!!

Here is my logo_sidebox_defines code:

define('BOX_HEADING_LOGO_SIDEBOX', 'test');
define('LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE_WIDTH', '150');
define('LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE_HEIGHT', '200');
define('LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE', 'bumper_sticker_ad.jpg');
define('LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE_TEXT', 'test');

//this is optional if you want to use the logo as a link
//replace your_link.com with the link you choose
define('LOGO_SIDEBOX_LINK', 'http://www.andrealevinedesigns.com/pet-bumper-sticker/');

?>

...and here is the tpl_logo_sidebox code:

// Link Option - uncomment this if you intend to use the logo as a link

$logoimage = '<a href="' . LOGO_SIDEBOX_LINK . '">' . zen_image($template->get_template_dir(LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE, DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'images'). '/' . LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE, LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE_TEXT, LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE_WIDTH, LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE_HEIGHT) . '</a>';

//comment this out if you use the above link option.
//$logoimage = zen_image($template->get_template_dir(LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE, DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'images'). '/' . LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE, LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE_TEXT, LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE_WIDTH, LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE_HEIGHT);

$content = '';
$content .= '<div id="' . str_replace('_', '-', $box_id . 'Content') . '" class="sideBoxContent">';

$content .= $logoimage;

$content .= '</div>';
?>

..the site is http://www.andrealevinedesigns.com and the you can see the banner in the lower left....what am I missing to get the link to work to go to the product?!?!?

Thank you in advance!!!!!!!

how do I add a hyper-link:
Open includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/logo_sidebox_defines.php
Change the highlighted portion to suit you needs.

define('LOGO_SIDEBOX_LINK', 'http://your_link.com/');

Now open includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/sideboxes/tpl_logo_sidebox.php

uncomment this line of code: remove the highlighted portion
//$logoimage = '<a href="' . LOGO_SIDEBOX_LINK . '">' . zen_image($template->get_template_dir(LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE, DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'images'). '/' . LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE, LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE_TEXT) . '</a>';

comment out this line of code: add the highlighted portion
//$logoimage = zen_image($template->get_template_dir(LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE, DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'images'). '/' . LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE, LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE_TEXT);


Save everything and upload to your server.

Check and make sure all your files are uploading to your server and they are in your custom folders.

Yep, everything is absolutely in my custom folders....that was one of the first things I checked.....just rechecked again though for good measure!

I just checked the site and for some reason the second option above is replacing the link option.

It doesn't appear that it has been commented out properly.

You could (as a temporary measure only) delete that second option completely to see if that fixes the problem.

OK, well that worked! So the image is there and it is linking fine to the product....do I have to have that portion of the code in the tpl file? Very weird......thank you though....I would never have thought to delete that!

OK i see the man is here to help so I will just be quit. :blink:

No need to be quiet silly--all help is always appreciated!!!!! I just knew this was something "weird"....I have been building sites with zen for about 3 years so I am pretty well versed...and I couldnt figure this simple thing out.....glad it turned out to be something I wouldnt have found anyway!!!!

Not sure what you mean by the highlighted portion.

The link information is located in logo_sidebox_defines.php which is the proper file for the link definition.

Thanks Clyde...my bolded part above was in reference to your quote above where you mentioned deleting the second options as a temporary measure only?

Sounds like removing that part might be an issue if you are saying it can only be removed temporarily?!? If it is OK without it then I will leave it alone since it seems to be working fine!!!

If it working, then I wouldn't worry about it.

You can add these statements to your stylesheet.css

#logosidebox{
margin: 0em;
margin-top: 1.5em;
border:none;
}

#logosideboxContent {
text-align:center;
}

#logosideboxHeading{
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
