Adding a HTML tag to the <head>

Hey!

I've just starting using X-Cart 5.1 and I am trying to add a Google Font to the <head> because it won't work when I use the @import method on the custom css.

I've been looking in skins/default/en/header and in the common folder but I can't find it. How do I add it?

Thanks. :)

Re: Adding a HTML tag to the <head>

First of all, do not modify any core files! You need to create a module, and then make your changes in your module.

I believe that the <head> section is a list. So to add your new template to the list you would put:

Code:

{**

 * Head list children

 *

 * @author    Qualiteam software Ltd <info@x-cart.com>

 * @copyright Copyright (c) 2011-2014 Qualiteam software Ltd <info@x-cart.com>. All rights reserved

 * @license   http://www.x-cart.com/license-agreement.html X-Cart 5 License Agreement

 * @link      http://www.x-cart.com/

 *

 * @ListChild (list="head", weight="100")

 *}

at the top of your template file.

Then you can include your link in the template like this:

Code:

<link href='//fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>
