    Default Changing the Sort Order of sideboxes

    Hello,

    I googled this and it linked me to this: https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/index.php?article=48

    I did as it said but the sideboxes didn't change order at all. Am I supposed to change some files manually?

    From where did you get your template? Some commercial templates "fix" the locations of sideboxes.

    Alternatively, to change the order you should always change the left/right column sort order, even if you only have one side column, and remember to press update changing each one.

    I'm using templates/classic

    This is my site: http://www.mosaicdiscovery.com/
    Basically what I want to do is put the box "Customize" above "Installed Mosaic"

    Here is the ordering setup in admincp (check attachment)
    What exactly am I doing wrong here?

    Can't see "installed Mosaic" in the list on your screenshot... but basically, the lower the number in the sort order column, the higher it appears in the list on site. You have Customise set to 41, you need to have installed Mosaic set with a higher number that that.

    I think the "Installed Mosaic" block is the "featured.php" - if not, how can I know which file is for which block?
    And if "Installed Mosaic" isn't listed than how come it's appearing on the sidebar?

    Installed Mosaic is the blank_sidebox.php (currently 9) and Customize is more_information.php (currently 49).
