Re: Facebook/Twitter Module

Gettings;

Great mod, however there are some issues,

The image location need to be fixed, instead of images/social/fb.png it should be ```
images/fb.png


Also there is no headings on the box themselves.

Re: Facebook/Twitter Module

Have you defined BOX_HEADING_SOCIAL in the module or defines file?

And there is no reason to need table or center code in there; you especially should not have incomplete table code (missing the containing <table> and <tbody> tags).

Just noticed you are missing the closing > here:

<div <a href="http:// <div> <a href="http://

Greetings;

Yea i added the following to extra_definitions

<?php
/**
 * blank sidebox definitions - text for inclusion in a new blank sidebox
 *
 * @package templateSystem
 * @copyright 2007 Kuroi Web Design
  * @copyright Portions Copyright 2003-2007 Zen Cart Development Team
 * @license http://www.zen-cart.com/license/2_0.txt GNU Public License V2.0
 * @version $Id: blank_sidebox.php 2007-05-26 kuroi $
 */

define('BOX_HEADING_SOCIAL', 'Enter Heading Here');
define('TEXT_SOCIAL', 'Replace this text with your HTML content.');

?>

Also changed the Sidebox file to the following;

<?php
/**
 * blank sidebox - allows a blank sidebox to be added to your site
 *
 * @package templateSystem
 * @copyright 2007 Kuroi Web Design
  * @copyright Portions Copyright 2003-2007 Zen Cart Development Team
 * @license http://www.zen-cart.com/license/2_0.txt GNU Public License V2.0
 * @version $Id: blank_sidebox.php 2007-05-26 kuroi $
 */

  // test if box should display
  $show_social = true;

  if ($show_social == true) {
      $title =  BOX_HEADING_SOCIAL;
      $title_link = false;
      require($template->get_template_dir($column_box_default, DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'common') . '/' . $column_box_default);
 }
 ?>
