Can someone explain how exactly to add some html to the sidebar of a template in Skadate? It is using smarty templates and I am trying a lot of different ways but have been unsuccessful.
It is located in Layout -> Components -> Page_Sidebar -> Default.tpl. Be sure to also clear the site cache in the admin panel after making changes. I missed that and that is why none of my changes were showing up.

I just started to use MVC for a simple website. Very new to this.
I am trying to change from the default layout to a simple layout page with sidebar navigation with drop-down list capability. Something similar to one that is shown in the enter link description here
Could you please guide me through this? I have downloaded the HTML, CSS and js files.
I added them to the project and referred to them in the bundleconfig.cs. But still no success.
Thank you very much
Recently we noticed that our module assignment tab is missing and we cannot assign any items to some modules, example: prntscr.com/8obd8u
Here is snapshot from our previous website (to compare with the current one): prntscr.com/8obdep
Does anyone have any idea what we should check? We disabled all the plugins / one by one to check if it's going to help us, still nothing.
Also, all the pages have a Custom HTML modue. See : prntscr.com/8od9rw
So everything on the page above with a Custom HTML module doesn't have that "Module Assignment"...
Have you tried using web inspector on the problem pages to check the HTML? Maybe the missing tabs are there but there's conflicting CSS from some source which is hiding the tab list items.
You could also try changing the admin template to Hathor and see if that changes anything ... wouldn't solve the problem but might provide some clues.
Good luck!
I have decided to sit down and build my first custom theme in Magento and I'm using this tutorial: http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/php/magento-for-designers-part-4/
However I cant for the life of me find a way to include horizontal navigation (Home | Shop | Contact etc.) along the top of my website!
I tried all the suggestions I could find including placing everything in the root category and enabling all cats in the navigation.. refreshing the cache etc.
I've been working at this for hours now and been searching everywhere for an answer. I've pretty much followed the tutorial step by step but I can't see any way to enable the Nav - can someone please point me in the right direction with this?
(I'm kind of assuming Magento have a way to do this to add categories automatically - I'm aware I could hard code the navigation bar but I'm trying to avoid this.)
Looking at the screenshot on the tutorial, it doesn't actually have the menu anyway.
I'd recommend you check out leveluptuts magento theming tutorials, who actually take the base theme and manipulates it into the desired theme. I think you'll have much more luck that way as most of the templates and layout files are already built.

For the top menu, the default theme pages call the "header.phtml" template for the header block (app/design/frontend/base/default/template/page/html/header.phtml), which in turns calls the "topmenu.phtml" template (app/design/frontend/base/default/template/page/html/topmenu.phtml) where the menu code is.
The layout files is page.xml
Hope this helps!
in magento i need to move nav-container above layered navigation, I can't seem to locate where to change is. I want the category breakdown to be above the filtering options.
Thank you in advance!
You can use Magento's Template Path Hints to check the name of template file of every block/section in your frontend. With this knowledge you will be able to edit proper template files. The feature is here:
System -> Configuration -> Developer -> Debug
(you need to switch to Website scope in Current Configuration Scope field).
I have replaced the header tags on my website with pictures but the template is still displaying the header text in an h1 tag. Where would I need to go to remove this tag from all the web pages? Thanks!
Try clearing cache (if any)
You may not be removing it from the right template so try turning on template hints in the admin
See How do I turn on template path hints
Go to your admin, then System -> Configuration.
On the left hand column, go to Advanced -> Developer
Now select the store view that you are working on, on the top left.
Under Debug, turn Template Path Hints on.
Now refresh the site to see exactly what file you need to edit.
