Add new link to More Information sidebox


In a default installation of Zen Cart, the More Information sidebox contains links to example pages named Page 2, Page 3 and Page 4.

Zen Cart More Information Sidebox

You may wish to include additional links to either internal pages (such as EZ Pages) and/or external web pages.

Note: This is a manual change to the php file though, so you may be more comfortable using EZ Pages and the EZ Pages sidebox in preference to the More Information sidebox, especially if you are looking to add a number of new links.

In this example we will be adding a link to an external website, Google, using the text ‘Search the Web’.

  1. Open the tpl_more_information.php file located in the /includes/templates/template_default/sideboxes/ directory.
  2. Find this line of code:
    $content .= '</ul>' . "\n" ;

    and modify it to:

    $content .= '<li><a href="http://www.google.com">Search the Web</a></li>' . "\n" ;
     $content .= '</ul>' . "\n" ;
  3. Save the modified tpl_more_information.php file to your override folder. This will be /includes/templates/CUSTOM/sideboxes/ where CUSTOM represents the name of your current template folder.
