Re: editing INFORMATION sidebox

It is includes modules sideboxes information.php

What did you need to modify?


Play with it long enough and you will break it.

Why mess around with the code when you can just turn off most of those links in admin -> configuration -> define pages status

Hello,
In the Define Pages Status, my page 2 is activated (1), but does not show in the Information sidebox. Is there anything I missed ?
Many thanks in advance.

Re: editing INFORMATION sidebox

But... argh ! I'm unable to find in the language files where I can change the link name... BOX_INFORMATION_PAGE_2.
I've been able to change the navbar + heading, following the FAQ infos, but this one I didn't get.
Many thanks in advance !

Re: editing INFORMATION sidebox

Sorry I started pretty much exactly the same thread.

I want to either edit them to be new names, or tahe them away and put new ones into 'Information'.

I went to the information.php page, and couldnt work it out, as it seemed to be pulling the information to that page as includes, so couldnt edit anything really.

Hopefully one of us will get an aswer.

Lee

Are we there yet?

Just one more line of code and im done...

Yes, I found a useful post which linked to a nice contribution / module which is available for download:
About Us
**http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?main_page=product_contrib_info&cPath=40_47&products_id=182
**
The instructions are in the zip file. The files (& changes) give an insight how to include a new link in information.php.

admin -> modules -> order total -> gift certificate and remove

Of course this means that you won't be able to offer gift certificates to your customers.

Re: editing INFORMATION sidebox

How do I edit the link Shipping & Returns link in the Information side box and split that into two pages: 1) Shipping Information and have that link to a shipping info page and 2) Return Policy and have that link to a return info page?

Thanks.

Re: editing INFORMATION sidebox

Follow up: How do I just edit the link in the information side box that says Shipping & Returns to say Shipping Information? What/where are all the files and folder I have to change?

Thanks.
