shayrgob Posted June 21, 2004 Posted June 21, 2004 How do i customize the left hand side of the website(specifically the category box)? I cant change the actual category name itself and it would be nice if i can customize the actual folders underneath. Any input would be appreciated.
patrickbailey1 Posted June 22, 2004 Posted June 22, 2004 If you want to rename the Categories box something else than you need to edit the file: catalog/includes/languages/english/english.php in this file you'll find: // categories box text in includes/boxes/categories.php define('BOX_HEADING_CATEGORIES', 'Categories'); and you simply change the 'categores' to 'products' or whatever. Similarly you can change the names of all the infoboxes and links in this file...just dont mess with the define('BBLASKDJFLASKD', stuff...only edit the 'categories' part. ALSO: SOME PEOPLE HAVE TROUBLE EDITING THIS FILE FROM THE FILE MANAGER!! EDIT IT FROM "DEFINE LANGUAGES" IN YOUR TOOLS BOX IN YOUR ADMIN!! You also want to edit Index.php, the file that contains all the main page text, from the "define languages" category too! As far as editing looks...you can change all of the infoboxes and how they look, but editing the look of each one separately requires a contribution. You an edit the look of all the infoboxes in catalog/stylesheet.css. Go to www.wiki.oscommerce.com and search for stylesheet...it will tell you what to change to edit certain things...like color of the infobox heading or font color, link color etc...all of these are in separate places. Good luck! Patrick Patrick Bailey www.DisplayHaven.com
