Hi Cameron!

Please replace this code:

<?php if ( $tmpTools->getParam("usertool_color", ‘4’) == "4" ) : ?>
<li class="level0 parent" >
<a onmouseout="toggleMenu(this,0)" onmouseover="toggleMenu(this,1)" href="#"><span>Minisite’s Color</span></a>
<?php echo $tmpTools->genToolMenu ($tmpTools->getParam(‘usertool_color’),’txt’); ?>
</li>
<?php endif; ?>

in app\design\frontend\default\your_templatetemplate \catalognavigationtop.phtml with your own code.

Hi Cameron!

The site you send me is http://www.lifestyle-impex.co.uk/ it is JM Oganis. For JM Epidio please do this:

-- Open .phtml files under app\design\frontend\default\jm_epidiotemplate\pag e
-- Replace this code:

Code:

		  <div class="head"><h4>Epidio Color</h4></div>
		 	<?php echo $tmpTools->genToolMenu ($tmpTools->getParam('usertool_color'),'txt'); ?>

with

Code:

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

-- Login to admin and create a static block with id "your_static_block".

You could change "your_static_block" with ID of the static block you created.

Thank you.
