Dear joomlagt!

You can follow instruction:
1. Create a static file static_pictures.phtml in app\design\frontend\default\jm_morganitetemplate\ callouts\
2. Open app\design\frontend\default\jm_morganite\layout\pa ge.xml, replace line 118

Code:

<block type="catalog/navigation" name="catalog.leftcat" template="catalog/navigation/sidenav.phtml" before="-"/>

with

Code:

<block type="core/template" name="left.permanent.callout" template="callouts/static_pictures.phtml" before="-" />

Wish you success.

I did the steps exactly the same way explained by you. May be I have not created static.phtm file properly. can you give me the contents that static.phtml file should have to display a image.

You try to copy this content

PHP Code:

<?php echo $this->getLayout()->createBlock('cms/block')->setBlockId('about-us')->toHtml() ?>


about-us is identifier which defined in CMS->Static Blocks

Hi joomlagt
I edited file /www/mobilespares.in/app/design/frontend/default/jm_morganite/template/callouts/static_pictures.phtml.
You can edit as you want. Edit content in CMS -> Static blocks -> About us
