MCousin76 Posted April 2, 2008 Posted April 2, 2008 Is there anyway to add a custom navigation? I tried to do it myself but when I went to add products to the shopping cart it would only allow me to add one product. It's like it creates a new session with every new click on the navigation. This is what i did - maybe i set it up wrong...

MCousin76 Posted April 2, 2008 Author Posted April 2, 2008 I noticed that another user had a similar problem creating custom product links. He was directed to the osC External Sessions contribution. http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,3257 I downloaded the contribution but i'm having a hard time figuring out how to install it / use it. Is there anyone able to help me figure it out? Is there anyway to add a custom navigation? I tried to do it myself but when I went to add products to the shopping cart it would only allow me to add one product. It's like it creates a new session with every new click on the navigation.

holydragon Posted April 3, 2008 Posted April 3, 2008 Does anyone have any idea how to create a custom product link that will show up either on the left navigation or the bottom footer? Hi, you can edit the column_left.php file to include any type of information that you want. I inserted a specials block at the base of the left column simply by tacking the following at the end of the code </td> </tr> </table> <br style="line-height:5px;"> <a href="<?=tep_href_link('specials.php')?>"><?=tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES.'b1.jpg')?></a><br> Hope that helps.
