customisation of information sidebox and adding extra pages

Hi, I have read through several posts relating to the same issue however did not find a solid answer. I also read through a few tutorials.

In the information sidebox I would like to remove the gift certificate FAQ's link and add some extra links. I cant manage to do this.

I have also added the more information sidebox and named it to reviews and tips. I will be placing many reviews and tips on the site for customers and it would make the home page look tatty if all the links were on the main page. I have only been able to add 3 links though and dont know how to add extra pages. I looked into the about us mod and the information sidebox mod which lets you add page 5,6 and 7 but wanted to ask if there is any way to get this done without the mods so i can basically learn for myself and get a better understanding.

I have added a few links in the ezpages however this is not the way i wanted to do this. I wanted 1 static link on the home page maybe in the form of a image which can act like a eye catcher. The link will take the customer to a page which will have separate links to different reviews. The problem is that i dont know how to add additional pages.

As i have renamed page 2,3 and 4 to the names of the pages i need to know where i can amend the meta details.

I would also like the ezpages links to appear horizontally at the top of the page however when i set this to appear the links come in a horizontal image which i dont want. Is there any way i can remove the background of the ezpages horizontal bar so it shows links only and no image. I think it is related to the tile_back.gif so i will need to exclude the image for ezpages only.

my sites url is ravsappliances.com

cheers

Re: customisation of information sidebox and adding extra pages

I need a primer on How To Add An EZ Page,and a primer on how to add Page_2.

I've done the Admin and put a link in my header, however...

I get "page not found" or a FORBIDDEN access.

Can you help? My site: https://www.allstateleads.com

The links on my home page are: 25 Free Leads in the header and the coupon in the left sidebar

:wacko:

Re: customisation of information sidebox and adding extra pages

Your question is completely different from what the original poster had asked, so you shouldn't post your question here in this thread. Start a new one with an appropriate title and people are likely to answer it.

Did you ever figure this out? I'd also like to add a new page to the "Information" header menu (and side box). (Not the "More Information" side box.)

Thanks.

Re: customisation of information sidebox and adding extra pages

adg -

Always better to start a new thread than to post in a real old one like this.

This mod will do what you want to do:

http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?main_page=product_contrib_info&products_id=1125

Also investigate EZ pages - I think they make more sense for informational pages than adding extra define pages.

Thanks guys!
I'm going the add extra pages route. We'll see how that goes.
