Remove Information Sidebox & put links in Footer?

[mommydesigns]

This sounds so straight forward and yet, I'm at a loss for where to start. Is this do-able (hahah.... in Zen, it should be right?)?

Thank you for pointing me in the right direction. Once I know how to do one, it should be straight forward to do the rest.

Turn the sidebox off in admin -> tools -> layout boxes controller

to add links to the footer try here in the tutorials/FAQ

There is no need to handcode links to put in the footer when you can turn on the EZPages footer Menu.

[clydejones]

You still have to include (hand code) the EZpages internal links so that they show up in the footer.

Thanks Clyde.

I went to look at this tutorial you linked but it's for the header logo?

I want to get rid of the "Contact Us", "Shipping & Returns", etc.

If you read the tutorial closely I think it says something like:

we will use tpl_header.php in this article but the same technique is used for tpl_footer.php.

Also as Kim pointed out; you could use the internal link functionality of EZpages to add the links and turn on the EZpages footer.

I found the problem - there was no reference to the footer so I did a search on the tpl_footer.php you mentioned above and I found the correct FAQ.

Am working on this as we speak. Thank you! I knew it had to be here somewhere.

I am "Lost" on this one...

I wish also to move all the information (sidebox links) to the footer.

In admin>Tools>EZpages

I see "privacy notice" listed but not "conditions of use", "site map" but not "contact us" etc...

How do I add the links to this menu in order to enable adding to the footer?

So do I create a new EZ page for "conditions of use" in admin>Tools>EZpages>new file and then what about the pages defined in Define Pages Editor?

Ok, I got "contact us" into the footer using the above link.

But thats where the trail goes cold...

Unless a page is already in the In admin>Tools>EZpages

you must hand code a link into the tpl_footer

like contact us in the above link:

<?php if (DEFINE_CONTACT_US_STATUS <= 1) { ?>
<li><?php echo '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_CONTACT_US, '', 'SSL') . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_CONTACT . '</a>'; ?></li>
<?php } ?>

I do not know the zen href link code (. zen_href_link(FILENAME_CONTACT_US, '', 'SSL') for the other terms:

Shipping & returns, conditions of use, and Newsletter Unsubscribe.

I have searched for these terms and found : BOX_INFORMATION_SHIPPING etc....but am unsure of the their true FILENAME or correct coding I guess I could copy the url and paste in as an external URL, but that doesn't seem to be the correct way.

Found the correct file names : /includes/modules/sideboxes/MYTEMPLATE/information.php


and have copied

<?php if (DEFINE_CONTACT_US_STATUS <= 1) { ?>
<li><?php echo '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_CONTACT_US, '', 'SSL') . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_CONTACT . '</a>'; ?></li>
<?php } ?>

to

<?php if (DEFINE_SHIPPINGINFO_STATUS <= 1) { ?>
<li><?php echo '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_SHIPPING) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_SHIPPING . '</a>'; ?></li>
<?php } ?>

etc...
