installed special scroll contrib - help needed please!

[adam_gardner]

hi there, ok the easiest way to show you what I mean is to visit my demo shop - www.lumoslighting.co.uk/test

 

as you can see, i've installed the scrolling specials contrib (on the right hand side) but it's not bringing up the title

 

 

i've included the relevant parts of my includes/english.php file and the code for the infobox ( includes/boxes/scroll_right.php )

 

please let me know if you need any more info

 

thanks for your help!

 

adam

 

 

English.php

 

// specials box text in includes/boxes/specials.php
define('BOX_HEADING_SPECIALS_SCROLL', 'Specials');

 

Scroll_Right.php

Hi Adam,

 

Add this code

 

  $info_box_contents = array();
 $info_box_contents[] = array('text' => BOX_HEADING_SPECIALS_SCROLL);

 

above this code

 

 new infoBoxHeading($info_box_contents, false, false, tep_href_link(FILENAME_SPECIALS));

 

That should sort it out.

Hi Adam,

 

PHP is a learning curve like everything else, your problem was easy to solve because all I did was compare your code against any other box.

 

Glad you got it working!
