Your post is awkwardly worded so I'm not sure I understand you completely, but it sounds like you are asking how to turn on/off certain sideboxes on certain pages.

You need to search the forum for your answer on how to manipulate sideboxes as it not really a WOZ specific question.

The method needed to turn on/of certain sideboxes on certain pages is the same regardless as to which sideboxes you are wanting to turn on/off..

I am so close on this.

I have implemented the Numinix integration. I still want the sideboxes (of course), so using DivaVocals' suggestion, I am attempting to use the wordpress loop with the blank sidebox mod (admin editable sideboxes does not allow PHP from what I can tell, and this mod is from the same contributor).

First, please know that I don't understand PHP.
When I enter the code (includes/MY_TEMPLATE/sideboxes/tpl_blank_sidebox.php) as such:

<?php
define('WP_USE_THEMES', false);
require('/MY_ABSOLUTE_PATH/blog/wp-load.php');
query_posts('showposts=5');

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

  $content .= '' ?>
<?php while (have_posts()): the_post(); ?>
<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a><br>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php
  $content .= '</div>';
?>

... the posts appear, but they do so ABOVE my heading. It struck me that the link elements may need to be declared as content, so I modified the syntax accordingly:

<?php
define('WP_USE_THEMES', false);
require('/MY_ABSOLUTE_PATH/blog/wp-load.php');
query_posts('showposts=5');

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

<?php while (have_posts()): the_post(); ?>
<?php $content .= '<a href="' . the_permalink(); . '">' . the_title(); . '</a><br>'; ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php
  $content .= '</div>';
?>

When I did this, it broke the sidebox (did not display).

Could someone/anyone with code experience help me out?

DivaVocals, I'm going to single you out for a moment. You proposed the Numinix + Sideboxes solution (and a good one it is) for quite some time. You are vocal in your ridicule of WOZ, often siting this alternative; however you are one of the few who truly have this (both Numinix AND sideboxes) as an option. I appreciate that you spent money developing sideboxes for use with your customers, but until the rest of us have a solution for sideboxes with Numinix, your cries of "there is no need to use WOZ" will not fully be heard. I apologize for that last run-on sentence.

<?php
// Include posts
define('WP_USE_THEMES', false);
require('/MY_ABSOLUTE_PATH/blog/wp-load.php');
query_posts('showposts=5');
?><?php while (have_posts()): the_post(); ?></p>
<h3><a target="_blank" href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h3>
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>

will this work?

and you are singling me out for what purpose??

you are ABSOLUTELY entitled to your opinion.. you are also entitled to ignore me and encourage others to do the same if you wish.. Just don't paraphrase and misquote me though..

Here's my consistent message: WOZ doesn't work.. WOZ is poorly supported, and WOZ doesn't use the WordPress loop codex properly which is part of the reason it has issues.. The Numinix solution on the other hand does work and for people who are NOT coders, who want a WORKING blog embedding solution, I will absolutely continue to share that tidbit of information with the community.. (and BTW.. some of those cries ARE being heard..)

BTW, (since we're quoting and paraphrasing me and all) I also suggested that folks asking for support on the Numinix blog embedding solution post those questions on a separate thread.. One community member has done just that.. (http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=184126) You might consider posting your question in that thread or in the Blank Sidebox support thread.. Also as I'm learned more about how to use the WordPress loop, I found the WordPress forums an infinite source of information..

Hello I have an issue. After I installed this mod, and went to redo my sitemap with a sitemap generator, it is really only picking up the /blog posts and isn't picking up any of the categories, ezpages, defined pages or products.
