too obvious?
have you tried the Speed Bar link in the admin?

/admin/speed_bar.php

Yes but this is to define the links used in the speed bar.

Yes. And name the links. Are you not using the stock xcart speedbar function?

I am not sure as the site was set up by another, in speed bar in admin there is no links defined.

FTP to your skin1 directory. Do you have a speedbar or speedbar2 directory?

I don't have either in the skin1 directory.

Good. Then you probably don't have PhilJ's speedbar mod.

If you add a link in the /admin/speed_bar.php link form the admin, what happens?

Add a test link. Link to "home.php"

If it doesn't do what's expected, you may have a customized 3rd party mod here...
