    Default Sale maker Center and sidebox mod

    I have been working on a mod to display products on sale in your store, created by using the "Sale Maker", to be displayed in a scrolling side-box and as a center box as well. (Main Page, category Page)

    I managed to get the side box to work and is in my final testing stage. I will upload this mod to the download section in due course.

    I am however having a hard time getting the center box component to work correctly. All the SQL scripts to get the data and the PHP code to use ZENCART routines like getting the display price etc. is working. What I need now is some guidelines as to which files (and file structures?) to use in making this info available as a selectable center box.

    I would prefer not to override any core files. If someone can point me to a set of files that is required for a center box to be added I would greatly appreciate it. (Perhaps even point out an existing center box which could easily be cloned?)

    From reading the forum I noticed that this functionality has been requested numerous times and I might just be able to assist in making it available.

    For the core team - If you are planning this anyway for an upcoming release just let me know and I will hold back. No need to duplicate functions.

    Thanks in advance.

    I'd like to see what you have so far ... the index pages can all use overrides to include the centerboxes as can the shopping cart ...

    I am interested in this as well. I would like the side box at the very least. Did you ever finish this.
