The Clean Theme creates a layout where you have links on the left side of the page. The links that appear on the left use the Page Link feature built within ShopSite. You can add links to the left navigation by linking pages to each other in your store.
If you would like add your own links that are not ShopSite pages, you would need to modify the Clean template itself. Below are the steps that you would go through in order to modify the Clean templates to show your custom left navigation bar.
1. Copy the Clean templates. Below are the two files that you would need to copy in your store.
2. Locate the "IF GiftCert" ShopSite tag. Within both of these template files locate the "IF GiftCert" tag. Just above that code you will have the LOOP LINKS feature in the page template, and a "back" button in the more information page template.
3. Add your own links using the format below. Add the lines of code shown below, and replace the URL with the full URL to the page you want to link to, and replace "Page Name" with the text you would like displayed for the link.
<tr>
<td class="pagelink"><a href="http://domain.com/filename.html">Page Name</a></td> </tr>
Your final code should look similar to:
4. Replace the sections above the Gift Certificate link which are shown in step 2. Replace the sections of code shown in step 2 with the code which you created in step 3.
5. Copy YOUR copy and name it the EXACT same as the original. Once you have finished making modifications, you can copy your copied templates and give them the exact same name as the originals. If you do this, your new templates will override the original templates. Once your file names override the originals, you can use the regular Clean theme and it will read your new files and display your new links.
