Hi,

Which navigation buttons do you want to change - brochure page buttons or shop page buttons?

If they are on your brochure pages then you will have to edit Act_BrochurePrimary.html, which controls the overall layout of the front end of your shop. Open this template (which you can get to through 'Advanced | Template Manager | Brochure tab | Primary button') in a text editor and search for NETQUOTEVAR:HEADERGUIDE - this is the variable that brings in the navigation buttons. You can comment this out and hard-code your own buttons or you can add new buttons after this.

If you want to change the buttons on your shop pages then open Act_Primary.html ('Advanced | Template Manager | Main tab | Primary button') and search for NETQUOTEVAR:FOOTERGUIDE (dependent on the theme you are using) and you can do the same as above.

The code for putting in a button is:

<a href="yoururl.com"><img src="buttonimagename.gif"></a>

I hope this helps.

I am using Clean Layout #4 with Quantity on Product Page. I have text links on my navigation.

I want to add a text link to the navigation bar on BOTH my brochure and shop pages, which says 'Links' and points to www.agiftislove.com/friends.html I tried the above in the Act_Brochure_Primary Template, but nothing happened

I did it like this: <a href="http://www.agiftislove.com/friends.html">Links</a> and placed it right after

<td align="right">NETQUOTEVAR:HEADERGUIDE&nbsp;</td> and before the </tr> in Act_Brochure_Primary Template.

Obviously I am doing something wrong - do I have to do something different because I am using text links instead of images?

Thanks

Hi,

You were almost right. Move the link before the </td> tag so it looks like:

<td align="right">NETQUOTEVAR:HEADERGUIDE&nbsp<a href="http://www.agiftislove.com/friends.html">Links</a></td>

The '&nbsp' just adds a space.
