Information Box

Link to this post 25 Apr 10

I am slowly getting the hang of design my own site and am loving it!
So far I have been able to find help through looking through this forum, but I can't seem to find the answer to this one.

Is it possible to change the order of the items listed under the information box? I know some of the pages are listed on the page editor and I can switch the order there; but not all the pages listed under my info box are listed there. Where else can I edit this box and have some of those pages listed and change the order?

thanks

Your site is coming along quickly and the design looks great :)

The problem with the information box is that it is coded to have the first set of links in a specific order. The pages you can create yourself give you the ability to change the order easily in the pages area, but those will come after the first links.

Having said that, you can have the links in any order you want, it just takes a little more work. You will need to go into the information box file itself to change the link order. The file can be found by going to includes/boxes/information.php

There are a couple of different ways of making the changes, so let me first ask this: What order would you like your links in? Are you wanting the pages that are already setup in between the links you create? Or, are you just wanting a few things changed around?

I actually would like to remove the following links in the box: Home and View Cart. I have those links up top and want to remove them from the info box. Can that be done?

thanks!

Yes, that can be done without too much html/php involved.

I went ahead and did this for you since I wanted to walk myself through it to make sure I explained it right, but for anyone else with the same question, here is how to do it:

Go into either your cPanel's file manager or the file manager in your admin navigate your way over to the includes>boxes>information.php file. If you are using your store's admin, you can find the File Manager link within the tools menu, click on the Define Languages link and you'll see a File Manager button towards the bottom of the page. You may have to click on the folder icon with the green arrow to make sure you are in the top folder.

Remove this section of code from the includes>boxes>information.php file:

'<a class="infoBoxContents" href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT) . '">' . HEADER_TITLE_CATALOG . '</a><br>' .
'<a class="infoBoxContents" href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_SHOPPING_CART) . '">' . HEADER_TITLE_CART_CONTENTS . '</a><br>' .
