but as you konw, zen cart is php developed, it’s not easy to find the way to add it in the control panel for a zen cart new learner as me, so I prepare you a tutorial way to add a new sidebox, here you go.

1, Create Sidebox Template:Add a new file to the server in the following directory: zen-cart-root/includes/templates/template-name/sideboxes/. You should name the file something relating to the contents of the sidebox. In this example we will be adding a welcome message sidebox so we might name the file tpl_welcome.php. The contents of the file will include what you want to display in the box and will be in a $content variable. Below is an example of the contents of the file if you wanted it to just display a message like “Welcome to my store”.

<?php 
/**
* Side Box Template
*
*/ 
$content = 'Welcome to my store.'; 
?>

2,Create Sidebox:Now we want to add the actual sidebox which goes into the following directory: /zen-cart-root/includes/modules/sideboxes. Again name the file something relating to the contents of the sidebox which in this case will be welcome.php. The contents of this file will look something like the below so just modify the variables that relate to your template.

3, Add Language Variables:You now need to modify the english.php language file to add the definitions for any text variables you have used in either file. In this example we have added a new variable called BOX_HEADING_WELCOME. So for this example you would add the below to english.php.

Note above that BOX_HEADING_WELCOME is the name of the variable used and “Welcome Message” is the text that is displayed anywhere that the variable is used.

4, Enable Sidebox:Now visit the Zen Cart admin system in your browser to turn the sidebox on. Once you have logged into the admin hover over Tools and select “Layout Boxes Controller” from the drop down. You will see the new sidebox in the list which in this example is sideboxes/welcome.php. Click on the new box twice and in the upper right of the window you will see fields that  you can edit. Type the correct number is the sort order field to display the box, select the radio button next to on in “Left/Right Column Status”, and then click the Update button. Your new sidebox is now enabled on your site.

5, Verify Sidebox:Now visit your Zen Cart store in a browser and the sidebox should show.

This book serves to address two major concerns for store owners who are using Zen Cart to run their online stores.

Firstly, it goes into detail on how to set up a Zen Cart store on a reader’s local computer.
With this approach, store owners can familiarize themselves with the software before they start searching for a web
hosting provider and putting their store on the Internet.
Another advantage is that the local installation of Zen Cart is able to act as a test bed for store owners to try out

different ideas before they actually implement those ideas on their ‘live’ online store on the Internet.
Secondly, this book acts as a form of structured documentation for Zen Cart.

Now, anyone can start learning how to use this powerful piece of software in a structured manner and see how the
different pieces fit together. This !proactive!– aroach is in stark contrast to the !reactive!– apprch that current
users employ: asking questions in the forums, reading the Wiki or browsing the FAQs on Zen Cart’s site.

Ultimately, store owners can save themselves the time, effort and headaches of sifting through the forums to look for
answers to most of their problems. The developers of Zen Cart can then have more time to continue enhancing this
wonderful software and not repeatedly answering the same questions that keep popping up ever so often on the
forums.

How To Use This Book

This book covers Zen Cart version 1.3.7.1 which is the latest version at the time this book goes to print.
This book is divided into 5 parts. If you are reading this book for the first time, you should go through the book in
sequence from Part 1 to Part 5. After that, you can jump around the different chapters to accomplish a specific task.

What is Zen Cart

Zen Cart (http://www.zen-cart.com) is a piece of shopping cart software that allows you to create an online, e-
commerce store for selling your goods and services. It is written in PHP and requires a MySQL database to work.
You can use Zen Cart to create an online store to sell physical goods like shoes, pianos or digital goods like gift
certificates, music downloads, etc. You can even sell services like insurance policies, IT support plans, etc.

The developers of Zen Cart have adopted the line, !The Art of E-Commerce!–, as their goal when developng the
software. Hence, you will find that the software is designed to cater specifically to the requirements of store owners
and shoppers first. Store owners do not need an IT degree to set up and administer their web sites, and shoppers can
navigate the online store and check out their items easily. Programmers are also not forgotten, as the code for Zen
Cart is well-structured and well-designed for easy maintenance and custom logic.

Zen Cart comes absolutely free with many e-commerce features available out-of-the-box. Therefore, you do not have
to invest a lot of money to establish an online, robust and professional e-commerce presence. All you need is to pay
the web hosting fees and possibly some web design fees if you want to give your online store a more polished look.

The source code for Zen Cart is distributed under the GNU General Public License (GPL). In essence, this license
gives anyone the right to modify the source code to suit their needs. However, derivative works that modify the
source code have to adhere to certain restrictions if they are to be re-distributed.
