Hi, I installed this and it turned my store to the default theme and it wouldn't let me change it to anything else. The sidebox didn't show up. What did I do wrong?

You need to edit the templates.txt and you need to make sure the sidebox files are added to ALL of your templates.

Yeah, I did that. I'm still having problems. The box shows up now but it still won't switch between the templates. Oh well, it was worth a try.

Alright, I figured this out....

You have to go in through the admin, select each template, then go into the layout boxes controller and activate teh box in each one of the templates.... real PITA but it does work

This is not working for me. My site is gone. only the body background color of the classic template shows.

Just as the read me states

1) edit images/templates.txt; put in your templates for switching

Would this work with different size of header, columns, and boxes if they are fixed?
