Re: How to remove links from Information Sidebox?

If you go to the Modules ... Order Totals ... and uninstall/remove the Gift Certificates ... then all references to Gift Certificates will vanish for you ... :smile:

Re: How to remove links from Information Sidebox?

I set Conditions of Use and Site Map to 0 in Admin and they still show up in the Information Sidebox. How do I get rid of them when they're supposed to be turned off already?

Thanks

Re: How to remove links from Information Sidebox?

I am not sure what version of Zen Cart you are using but in the Define Page Status settings you should see:

Define Conditions of Use
Enable the Defined Conditions of Use Link/Text?
0= Link ON, Define Text OFF
1= Link ON, Define Text ON
2= Link OFF, Define Text ON
3= Link OFF, Define Text OFF

Re: How to remove links from Information Sidebox?

I'm using Zen Cart 1.3.0.2 and I went to the Define Pages and turned them off, but they still show up.

Thanks for that superfast reply.

Re: How to remove links from Information Sidebox?

You need to use the right setting ... 0 is:
0= Link ON, Define Text OFF

3 is:
3= Link OFF, Define Text OFF

NOTE: v1.3.0.2 is a very very old buggy version ... you really want to upgrade to v1.3.7 as soon as you can and add the Patch at:

Sometimes my brain takes a flight to a place that hasn't been charted yet. This would be one of those times.

Thanks!

Re: How to remove links from Information Sidebox?

Where is the Define Page Status anyway? I can't seem to fine it inside ZC Admin. Did I looked at a wrong place?

** OK nevermind, I found it, I should have reduced my screen size smaller. It hides below there, literally. :frusty::P

Re: How to remove links from Information Sidebox?

I want to keep my Gift Certificate FAQ but would like to edit some of the text. Is there a way to do that or is it all or nothing? Thanks!

Re: How to remove links from Information Sidebox?

The Gift Certificate FAQs are defined in the language file:
/includes/languages/english/gv_faq.php

If you read carefully how they are written the words for:
Gift Certificate
Gift Certificates

are done with constants ... the upper case words that you will see ...

This allows all of the usage in singular or plural to read the same ...

Copy to your templates and overrides directory:
/includes/languages/english/your_template_dir/gv_faq.php

to make your changes ...

Try this:
/includes/languages/english.php
do a search for shipping and notice you will find:
define('BOX_INFORMATION_SHIPPING', 'Shipping & Refunds');
change to 'Shipping'); make sure to place text between the two ' ' .

Re: How to remove links from Information Sidebox?

    $information[] = '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_SOMETHING) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_SOMETHING . '</a>';

Have you an example of what you are trying to link to?
