Can't see sidebar content in v8

[jodg]

Hello,
I am currently upgrading our web site from v7 to v8. As you will see from our site, www.littleherbal-international.com, we use the 'smart' theme and have side bars down either side with extra information.

However, when I have come to load the site in v8, the left bar table "Contact Us" and the right bar table "Ailments" do not display even though the brochure & product pages contain the code snippets - this I can see when I open the pages in Dreamweaver.

Can anyone offer any suggestions?

Thanks,
Jan

Hi Jan,

It's quite tricky to suggest something without looking at the V8 code.

In your "Smart Left Sidebar" layout did you make new layout for the Contact Us or are you using the "Left Custom Sidebar Box" layout?

Thanks for the reply.

Funnily enough, I've been able to crack it this morning.

In the Catalog "Design" view I simply took the left box code snippet, copied and pasted this below and then edited the variable etc etc. Managed to easily add mini-table content to both sidebars on our site.

Works a treat!

Mind you, next step is to upgrade from the live v7 to v8.....
