More Information Sidebox

How do I delete / change / add pages to the More Information sidebox?
I cannot find a tag to access this in admin.
I know how to change the content on these pages but not the title and so on!
Page 2/3/4 does not really appeal to me nor probably my visitors!

Re: More Information Sidebox

The title that displays in in the english.php file as a defines

Changing this will alter what is displayed on the page but not in the browser address bar.

Depending on what you want - you can alter all these in the files (about 5 entries files) and maintain the editing in the admin > tools > defines page editor.

OR: you cn replace all of these with an ezpage sidebox and your pages created for this. admin > tools > ezpages > insert new page

And then these are editable in the admin > tools > ezpages

Your choice....if the former - get the about us module for guidance as to what requires changing

Re: More Information Sidebox

The initial requirement that I have is to produce a page where visitors could access articles.
I considered EZ Pages but I understand that these will not be spidered which is quite important to me.
Even if they are spidered I would need to remove the pages already listed in "More Information"
Zencart is a wonderful programme but not really designed for "newbies", I also have other sites to maintain so I don't really want to learn yet another wholesale experience.
I would like to be able to access all pages from one menu, at least I would then know exactly where I was and alter them accordingly.
I used eCommerce once but compared to Zencart this is still in the stoneage, however it was easier to navigate.
So, as a start, where do I find about module?

Admin > config > defines pages > set them as you want > on/off etc.
The side boxes - admin > tools > layoutboxes controller > set as you want
So, as a start, where do I find about module?
In the downloads/other section here on this site (I think the it is the 1st one)

Re: More Information Sidebox

Great, thank you.
The further one drills down the more one finds!
All too much for me to absorb at the moment but I'll have to learn if I'm to make any money out of this venture.

Re: More Information Sidebox

I tried to add a page 5 to the more info side box but I still cannot see it.
I have added a page 5 where page 4 is. The thing I have just noticed is there is not a page 5 in the admin config define page status.
What am I missing?
Thanks
Franco
