Hi,

I wanted to create a new menu to display the links to all the static pages I create instead of having them under "Help". I followed the intructions below and it worked just fine.

Change it to:

{*{include file="pages_menu.tpl"}*}

This will prevent the static pages showing up in the help section.

To create a menu with only the static pages links:
In the skin1 directory create a new file called for example: new_menu.tpl

And place this code in it:

{capture name=menu}
{include file="pages_menu.tpl"}
{/capture}
{ include file="menu.tpl" dingbats="dingbats_help.gif" menu_title=$lng.lbl_help menu_content=$smarty.capture.menu}

You can adjust the menu to your liking by changing the lbl_help variable.

In skin1/customer/home.tpl insert this code where you want to include the menu:

{include file="new_menu.tpl" } 

This should do the trick

However I do have one small issue. I have integrated the menu so that it comes up on the left side below the categories menu. Is does this fine however the formatting was slightly different. I wanted to assign the same css class as the categories menu. Hence in the pages menu I added div tags to make it look like this:

{* $Id: pages_menu.tpl,v 1.5 2005/11/17 06:55:36 max Exp $ *}
{section name=pg loop=$pages_menu}
<div class="categories">
{$pages_menu[pg].title}
</div>
{/section}

It works but it shifts the new links slightly inwards and not flush against the left side like in the categories menu. Looks like this:

Any ideas how I can make it look like under the categories menu?

Would be a great help. Thanks.
