Hey,

In need of some help again guys, has anyone got any idea how to answer the 2 question below??

I want to make 1 sidebox for the left that contains everything, the cart at the top, then categories and then pages. I want this all in one box and want to define the height of the sidebox because I've made a custom background.
The bar at the very top with 2 links (Home and Login) I want to move that to below the header and add extra links, how do I do this!?!Thanks! Look forward to your replies.

It's not enough just downloading and installing free scripts - you have to learn to program. The biggest issue with any off-the-shelf package is that they are built to fulfil general requirements - start wanting to do things differently, and it stops being free and if you have or need to change the core code, then out goes upgrades.

Your first stop should be the Zen Cart public support forum.

To specifically answer your questions:

1) Make one sidebox.....
Zencart is designed to be modular so you can move things around the page by turning them on/off in admin. You "could" get someone to code up a new sidebox for you to do what you want but expect to pay for it. An alternative is to remove/over-ride all the sidebox styles from the css stylesheet then put them in the order you want in you left column by using the admin screen. This will create the effect you want without needing to code up a new sidebox.

2) In the Zencart downloads section is an alternative header. This will do what you want
