X-Cart forums

So I've got my 4.1.8 in development - must say I LIKE it more than my previous versions.
One thing - the admin side renders in a 2 (two) column format (front end has three) and I'd rather it in be in a 3 (three) column format with menus on both sides (to avoid unnecessary scrolling)
so... eh... where does I set this?

I'm sure I'm overlooking a very simple answer, and your feedback and assistance are greatly appreciated - Thanks!

Hope you're having an OUTSTANDING day (or night, depending on where you are

You'd need to code in a third column and move whatever menus you want over there.

Moving to Template Editing.

balinor - Thank you! I think I can handle that. If not, I'll be back
And thanks also for placing it in the proper category.

I am new to x-cart and have read everything I can find on the forum but I still don't really know how to "code in a third column" from the single/home.tpl template. I need to move the authentication menu over there to avoid too much scrolling. Can anyone help?

[balinor]

You'll need to understand HTML in order to add a third column....do you know HTML?

[tamicampos]

Yes, I do know HTML (enough to get me by!). I guess I am just not sure exactly where to put it in the code.

There are two <td> tags in there now, you need to add a third one after the second one and then put whatever includes within that <td> that you want added to a third column.
