Glad it's working now! You'll notice that the functional difference between your original social.php module file and the final version is that the standard code layout calls the tpl_ file before the $column_box_default file, while you had $column_box_default before the content. I was remiss in not checking on that when I thought your coding was unusual.

Wasnt just that change either, it was also the coding in the TPL that was changed, however i will upload the mod to Zencart so everyone else can put it on their site if they wish.

The require for the tpl_ file has the same effect as putting the code right in the module file - it's the sequence that makes a real difference. You now have code executing in the right sequence.

It will be good to have a packaged set of the right files for that... be sure to look at the mod submission guidelines when putting it together.

Hi guys. I downloaded this mod for twitter and facebook. I was able to install it, the only thing that I would like the links to open in a new window so that my customers dont leave the site. Can someone please help with this.

This is the code:

<!-- Start Facebook&Twitter Links -->
<br />
<br />
<center>
&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="http://www.facebook.com/bequjuice"><img src="images/social/fb.png" width="50" height="50" alt="Facebook" /></a>&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="http://twitter.com/bequjuice"><img src="images/social/tw.png" width="50" height="50" /></a>&nbsp;&nbsp;
</center>
<!-- End Facebook&Twitter Links -->

Thanks

Add target="_blank" to the <a href> links, like this:

<a href="http://www.facebook.com/bequjuice" target="_blank">
