How to combine Zen Cart “More Information” and “Information” sideboxes

March 6, 2010 in Zen Cart Customization, Zen Cart Guides

Is this useful? Like it.

To combine or merge the links in “More Information” sidebox with “Information” sidebox, you just need to copy the codes from more_information.php to information.php.

The files involved are:
\includes\modules\sideboxes\more_information.php
\includes\modules\sideboxes\information.php

Steps:

  1. Copy the original information.php file to:
    \includes\modules\sideboxes\CUSTOM_TEMPLATE\information.php
  2. Open both files in a text editor:
    \includes\modules\sideboxes\more_information.php
    \includes\modules\sideboxes\CUSTOM_TEMPLATE\information.php
  3. Copy the Page 2, Page 3, Page 4 codes from more_information.php to information.php. Then change all the occurrences of “$more_information” to “$information”. See the screenshot below for the information.php file after the codes have been copied over:

  4. Upload the file and disable the “More Information” sidebox, as you do not need it anymore.
    Admin > Tools > Layout Boxes Controller
  5. Note: You can also move any of the code to change the display sorting/position of the links.

Or just use this easier method

Click to download the information.php file, upzip and upload to:
\includes\modules\sideboxes\CUSTOM_TEMPLATE\information.php
