I'm trying to use the same effect for the left sidebox that I saw used in several templates, including "mistik" (where the templates are listed when you look at the mistik template from the templates page.) I downloaded the template to see how the sidebox image was sliced and where the slices where placed in the various files and I put my slices in the same places. After uploading to my site, nothing was showing up and I had made the following changes to try and get this to work:
  • I changed the stylesheet.css
  • I copied the column_left.php file to my custom template folder in /includes/modules/
  • I copied the tpl_box_default_left.php file to /includes/templates/CUSTOM/Common/
I knew that I had to turn "ON" one of the various boxes in the "layout boxes controller" in the admin but I wasn't sure exactly which one since each of the boxes has a specific name (ex: who's online) linked to a specific .php file (ex: tpl_whos_online.php) and for the look that I'm interested in for my sidebox (which you can see in the link below) I don't need any .php files. In the end, I turned on the "categories" box but I don't want any of the words that are placed in the categories sidebox to be there (including the word "categories" at the top). I'd appreciate any help.
