    help question Create a New Sidebox

    How do I create a sidebox to look like my others. I can select the sidebox in my ZC admin but it shows up with no borders or header.

    Anyone?

    If you mean you need a blank sidebox to put your own custom content, you can download it here: http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?ma...roducts_id=174

    Otherwise, if you mean you already have a sidebox, but it doesn't display correctly, you'll need to give us a url so we can take a look.

    You must have read my mind - something that simple and I couldn't figure out how to explain it, or do it.

    Thanks,

    I will post a link to the finished side box - I think allot of people will appreciate it!

    This is great.. But I'd like to be able to edit the content of my side box using the Page Editor feature.. Is there a way that I use content which can be edited via the Page Editor within my newly created blank sidebox???

    Strange, I've been able to use it just as any of the other files in the html_includes folder including adding php code snipits
