    Default How to add a link to side box ?

    Hello

    I have ssl seal displayed on my site. as it was pointed by one of the member .. this ssl seal works using java script and if java script is disabled , page visitor wont see it .
    I got the static seal from godaddy which they have provided to me as link starting with <a> tag. .

    I was wondering how can i add that to my side box ?
    I don't know proper php coding .

    thanks.

    PS: im using blank_sidebox module for this reason . link should be added after
    $content .=

    Always a good idea to provide some Text for people with JS turned off; which is more common than people think.

    After your closing </a> you would add the following:

    </a>
    <noscript><p>Enter some readable Text here. You can also provide a regular link such as <a href="http://siteseal.com/your_account">Our SSL Certificate Guarantee</a>.</p></noscript>

    Thanks.

    my problem is adding the link to the side box.. I don't know how to fix error that gets generated. i think it has something to do with use of ( ' ) or ( " ) in php..

    i can provide the link that was sent to me by godaddy , if that would help .


    thanks.

    Wasn't aware you were getting an error msg.? Would need more details.

    As to adding in your code, just following the instructions.


    > includes/templates/templates_default/sideboxes/tpl_blank_sidebox.php

    Open file. Find where it says:
    <!-- EDIT BELOW THIS LINE -->
    <a copy & paste your godaddy JS link
    </a>
    <noscript><p>Enter some readable Text here. You can also provide a regular link such as <a href="http://siteseal.com/your_account">Our SSL Certificate Guarantee</a>.</p></noscript>
