Any way to add another categories list?

**hyrisk** · 29 Jan 2007, 03:26 AM

I was wondering if there was a way to add another categories list. You know the categories side can you make another heading like the one says categories?

You can get creative on the Document sidebox ...

This is restricted to categories that are marked as Document General ...

However ...

You can add to this Product General or any other Product Type ...

Now those categories that are marked Document General show from the Document sidebox ...

The listings etc work the same way but you can separate the categories to be managed by two sideboxes ...

Then change the title of it to whatever is appropriate to your needs for splitting the categories into the two sideboxes ...

NOTE: all categories and the subcategories must be restricted in the same manner for Document General and whatever other Product type you want ... otherwise this will not work properly for you ...

This sounds very much like what I want to do, but I don't understand your answer. Is there some document you can point me to that can start from the beginning?

Thanks...

I have got as far as the document side box and added a catagory in there but where do I change the document header? I have looked all over for it!

Also, can I move the document side box to the right hand side?

Thanks in advance!

I have been able to move the sidebox now!

I am still having problems changing the title of the sidebox from Documents. Is it not possible to change it and if so where do I do it as I have searched everywhere I could think of?

The website is www.cockerssports.co.uk/shop

Help would be much appreciated.

Jason.

If I were trying to do this, but I am not ... I'd go to the Tools ... Developer's Tool Kit and type in the bottom input box:
Documents

And select Catalog from the dropdown and click Search ...

Then look to see where the define is located in the language files and copy that to my templates and overrides directory and customize it to read something else ...

That's what I would do if I were trying to do this ...

This little trick worked great for me. Got it running smooth in no time.

Thanks!
