Move Information in Sidebox into the footer

How would I go about moving the info links that appear in the sidebar to the bottom of the page, possibly in the footer.

If I have to hardcode it, thats fine, I'm just not sure where to put the code.

Thanks

Re: Move Information in Sidebox into the footer

includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE_NAME/common/tpl_footer.com, or better still, create internal links in the footer using EZ-Pages.

Re: Move Information in Sidebox into the footer

Hello kuroi,

Can I edit this file to just add text to the footer (ie. not links, just text)?

If so, could you give me an example of how to code it?

Ie. I want the text "Thank you for using ......." to appear in the footer, but not as a link.

Kind regards,
Anthony

I wanted to do the same as jrstaatsiii.

Through Admin functions, I managed to get the links to appear in the footer, but they also remain in the sidebox. How does one remove them from the sidebox?

Actually, what I wanted to do is move some info links to the bottom, but keep the gift certificates and site map categories in the side box. Is that even possible? If it is, how complicated would it be?

Re: Move Information in Sidebox into the footer

Thank you. Those instructions seem to address moving the entire "Information" box to the footer. As I said, I already have information categories showing in the footer.
I would just like to turn some categories off in the side box, and leave some on. Is that possible?

Just use html in footer for links required...turning categories off in sidebox is different story/query..

Re: Move Information in Sidebox into the footer

I tried that, but the result is that the Information Categories show up in BOTH the sidebar and the footer.

I expected that, once I chose the option footer, the EZ page would disappear from the sidebar. It did not.

I was also hoping to split product categories so some show up on top of the page, some on the side, and some on the bottom. Is that doable?
