    Default Changing the Information Sidebox

    Hi, i'm working on my shopping cart and i'm almost there, but i need couple fo things changed. I looked and looked through the forum can't find the answers.How do i changed what pages show on the information sidebox?
    For example, i want to take out site map, discount coupons, and gift certificate faqs.
    I also want to take out New Products from the Category sidebox, is that possible?
    And my last thing is how do i change the button home to go somewhere else? Or if that's not possible can i re-name that button and maybe at the top above the header can i add another link, right now just home and log in show up?
    Thanks...

    If you go in your admin and go to:

    Configuration -> Define Page Status

    you will find a section to turn the pages in the information box on or off. 4 options listed. Setting a page to option 3 will turn it completely off.


    Hope this helps,
    Joe

    I dont know how to edit each sidebox accordingly but...

    If you log into your admin panel and go to

    Tools > EZ-Pages.

    Create a new page by clicking on "New file" and when you edit that page, check off "Sidebox" and put a value of "5"

    Leave everything else checked as "no", and for fun type the word "test" in the "Html content" area.

    Once you're done, if you go to yourdomain.com
    There should be a link in the "Important Links" side box, and clicking it will bring you to that page, which SHOULD say "test test etc"

    Synopsis - Adding a new file in ez-pages with sidebox option checked will add a link and page to the "Important links" Sidebox.

    Conclusion - I think while editing other boxes you may have to continue working inside the directories and editing the .php files.. But dont take my word for it.

    Hope that helps a bit?

    Chris
