Re: Add a sidebox on the right column

I've used the banner feature (Tools, Banner Manager) to do this in the past which has worked well and avoids programming. You then just add a url to the category you want to link.

Re: Add a sidebox on the right column

You need to make sure the box is enabled in Tools Layout Boxes Controller.

Also, that you have allocated your image to the correct banner and have a look in Configuration Layout settings to make sure the banner is enabled there.
