MOVING INFOBOX CONTENTS TO HEADER

[james66]

I am using 2.3.1 and want to get rid of the infobox with categories, contact us, T's & C's etc for aesthetic reasons. I want to add these links to the bottom of my header, with a drop down from the categories, preferably in the same style and shape as the cart and account buttons on the header.

 

I have tried the header_footer_contents addition but this does not do what I want.

 

I have searched through the forums but can't find what I need, although I am certain there has to be a topic on this - i just have failed to find it.

 

Could someone please take pity on me and point me in the right direction. I should point out that my coding skills are almost non-existent - but you probably figured that out already!

 

Thanks in advance for any help.

Have you looked at this one

It may need some alteration to match your store, but it should not be that hard.

Hello steve and thank you for that but I have been trying all day to get this add-on to work and I cant get it right. I just get the product categories in a vertical list on my header with a white background and it covers the breadcrumb line.

I really wanted to have a line of about 30 px height above the breadrumb with clickable boxes to information pages and product categories.

I don't know if i am just being immensely thick but I can't get this right.

If anyone can offer any constructive comments I would be most grateful. Failing that just send me a revolver and a bullet, maybe 2, the computer gets it first!

I finally gave up on the above add-on and the css horizontal menu templates I found on a web search - my coding ability is useless - I just couldn't get anything to work. I resorted to adding a table to my header and added links to the filenames for conditions, shipping etc within the table. So far so good, but I can't figure out how to get similar links to the categories in my shop.

Any suggestions??????
