Include in Index

[plaz]

I'm just trying to add an include statement to the bottom of the main index file in zencart. It doesn't work. When I paste the contents of the included file in the index, it works fine. Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Peter

Have you tried require instead of include?

For example, the header is included with this statement

require($template->get_template_dir('tpl_header.php',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'common'). '/tpl_header.php');?>

It can depend on exactly what you are trying to include ... more details?

Yes, require doesn't work either.

It is just some navigation, in the form of image links.

... and the syntax you are using and the exact position on the page?

include("/pages/bottom.htm");


placed on the index.php file at the bottom right before
<?php require(DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'application_bottom.php'); ?>

this is the same place i placed the html code and that worked

Try putting it in the template file instead of the php file.

I am new to zencart, can you tell me where that is?

May I suggest you start with the tutorial/FAQs on how to customize Zen Cart before you do anything further? Pay particular attention to the section on how to create your template overrides.
