Adding a simple link to the categories sidebox

Hello,

I would like to add a link in the categories sidebox just below the line that separates the categories from "New Product". The link will read "Special Orders" and link to this page http://d****med.com/index.php?main_page=page&id=6

Can anyone help me with what and where? Greatly appreciated!

I've been searching around and although I can find some similar posts, nothing that is explaining what I need to do. At least not that I understand.... Anyone?

someone else may suggest a better ay but this works

copy
/includes/templates/template_default/sideboxes/tpl_categories.php

to
/includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/sideboxes/tpl_categories.php

then find:

    if (SHOW_CATEGORIES_SEPARATOR_LINK == '1') {
      $content .= '<hr id="catBoxDivider" />' . "\n";
    }

right after that add:

        $content .= '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_LOGIN) . '">' . CATEGORIES_BOX_MYLINK . '</a>' . '<br />' . "\n";

changing FILENAME_LOGIN to where ever you want the url togo

then create a file here, called:
/includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/YOUR_TEMPLATE/categories_sidebox_extra_defines.php

put your defines in here like so:

<?php
define ('CATEGORIES_BOX_MYLINK','Login / Register');
?>

In the above example I added the login page below the categories <hr /> or line that seperates the categories from "New Products"

Hope this helps!

That will work fine. Alternatively, Categories Dressing fom Plugins will allow you to add a "heading" above New Products which can be defined as a link to wherever you like.

very true and a great mod :-)

Awesome, Thanks guys!
