Follow the instructions here.

Just add your link wherever you want it to go and not in the help menu if that's where you do not want it to go. You cannot directly reference .tpl files.

You could also read the X-Cart FAQ. It's full of Frequently Asked Questions.

I have seen this instructions but these are for adding a new page to the help section and I dont' want to do that. I want to add a new page under the category section. Can this not be done?

[adpboss]

It's the same principle.

It's not that hard. Create the page. Insert the link wherever in your cart you would like. Done.

The reason why you keep getting referred to this post is that you double posted your issue, and that this is the time honoured way that dozens of users have learned to add pages to their carts before static pages.

It is the perfect answer if you would be willing to read through and understand it.

If you need more help I suggest you hire someone to do it, because this is by far one of the simplest mods you could do.

I'm sorry that I have not been able to figure this out. I have read the post several times and have copied the methods step by step. The only thing I can think of is our cart is heavily modified by xcart so maybe that is why it's not working so easy as everyone says it is.

GEEZ. From that post.

Read the X-Cart FAQ. They have a complete walk thru on how to add an About Us page.

you can put it for example after help menu section

You DON'T have to put in the help section, that is just an example. If you are having trouble adding hyperlinks to your cart, perhaps you should hire professional help. Not everyone feels comfortable mucking around under the hood of the X-cart car.

Then there are those of us who are a bit too zealous!
Just remember to backup.

Well manipulating TEmplate files is not as dangerous as with php files, but yes it is better to have a backup always.

TIP: instead of just uploading a tgz file to your server.... open it up on your PC and make changes locally and FTP them to your server, that way you always have a local change log (if you could call it that way) ready in case you messed up a file.

As with TPL files they are much easier to manipulate that way, cause you could have both skin1 and skin1_original folders available on your server just in case.

Ok,

I have it working almost. I have followed the instructions and placed the link from where I want it but now when the page goes up I get this:

Home :: Help Zone ::

How can I make the Help Zone :: go way or change it to say Features ::

Thanks
