How to show HTML content in side bar? Thanks.

[mdivk]

Hi folks,

I want to embed something like HTML content into my side column, I know there is a sidebox, but how do I display HTML content directly? without user has to click a link to open it in another window?

I use lots of this in WordPress, there you can easily embed any HTML content in text widget. How do I do this in Zen Cart?

Thank you very much.

Get the Blank Sidebox mod from Free Addons. If you don't want it to look like other sideboxes, you can hide the heading and borders with CSS.

Can you please elaborate it? Where can I get a Blank Sidebox mod from Free Addons?

This is my first time using Zen Cart.

Thank you very much.

I downloaded the addon, and made some changes to create my own HTML content, basically I want to have a clustermap on the right hand side instead of current footer position.

I made my modification based on this post:

But where else should I make setting change? maybe in Admin somewhere?

Can you tell me more details on how to do this?

Thank you very much in advance

One tutorial: How do I remove and/or re-arrange the sideboxes? But it's not clear what you have already done and what you might have missed.
