How to add more sideboxes (not alternating)

[PudzPud]

Using Zencart 1.3.9h

Hi,

I have created a few sideboxes but cannot work out how to get three of them to show at the same time (one under the other). If I activate all 3 they alternate i.e. each time the page is refreshed a different one will show each time (but only 1 per page). I have attached a screenshot of my current set-up and am sure it's something simple I am missing, but a search of the forum and my zencart manual have not helped me work it out.

NOTE - The group in question is called Sidebox-Banners and I only have one switched on in this image to stop the alternating thing happening.



I have tried changing sort orders etc but that does not help

Any help appreciated.

What you have created is not three sideboxes, but three banners to go in the one sidebox-banners sidebox. If you want all of them displaying, you need to use the Blank Sidebox mod from Plugins to create actual sideboxes. It's pretty simple to do, as long as you pay attention and follow instructions.
You will then turn those sideboxes on in Tools > Layout Boxes Controller.

If you want your other sideboxes to be controllable in the Banner Manager, you can 'clone' the banner sideboxes. Instructions here:

(It's easier than it looks at first.)

Also there's a fairly new add-on which adds additional banner sideboxes.. dunno the EXACT name of the addon, it's by Delia..

Hello,

Can someone point me in the right direction for instructions on how to add an image to the right side of my site? I have an image with text in it that I would like to place on the right side so that customers that click on one of my products listed on a shopping site and go directly to the product page will see it. I know how to place it in the center portion of the home page but that page is usually not viewed by people coming to the site from a shopping site.

Thanks for any help,

Jim

You could use one of the sidebox banners or the Blank Sidebox mod.
