Hi martinmo,
Could you please explain a bit more? An illustrated screenshot would be great, Do you want to remove those item from the a product details page like this http://magento-themes.joomlart.com/j…th-napkin.html ?
thank you for your attention!
But I managed to delete the compare stuff completely now by myself.
HI martinmo,
Could you tell us where you found the Compared box in the back-end please? I don’t understand where these boxes/modules come from?
Hi susan,
what’s the Compared box which you are mentioning mate, where does it locate ?
Hi, Sherlock,
As an example, please view this screenshot: Attachment 28673
Hi mate,
To remove that compare block on the right side you can open the file of app\design\frontend\default\your_theme\layout\cata log.xml there you look for this tag and remove
HTML Code:
<block type="catalog/product_compare_sidebar" after="catalog.leftnav" name="catalog.compare.sidebar" template="catalog/product/compare/sidebar.phtml"/>
Hope that helps !
Hi, Sherlock,
Thank you for your reply. I am realizing now however that these blocks, apart from the first one (Win a Price) that I need to eliminate, are actually useful. The problem is that they should be displayed as a sidebar on the right, but they appear under the Dashboard etc. Do you know why this is happening please?
See My Wishlist for example: Attachment 28712
Hi susan,
I guess it’s kind of missing html tags (close or open), you can check again those static bock’s contents there, make sure that those static bocks at that page does not contain messed content.
Hope you will find it out.
Hi, Sherlock,
