Move Infobox to custom position. Possible?

[pala]

I would like to move the infobox shopping cart to the header of my website.

I have used STS before and all i did was move the $shoppingcart tag in my template.

Is there anyway this is possible for BTS?

If not then BTS is seriously lacking a very awesome feature.

well, you just said it there. Must be the problem with the templating system that it doesn't have this powerful feature set. Glad we took care of that.

Or, maybe, just maybe, it is possible to do what you want and it might be useful and you could write a simple procedure call that would place the box in the header and share it.

Personally, I always found that people would find the cart wherever you put it. So I moved the login and search to the header upper right. And wow, it took me all of 10 minutes to do that, even without a fancy template feature.

Not to be sarcastic, but the BTS has its better points, and it has it's drawbacks. Overall, after having used both templates, I find the BTS works better than STS as it allows me better ability to tailor a site to my needs. On the other hand I would have really preferred it if someone had done the whole thing in smarty so that there was a better separation between logic and UI.That would have allowed me to web 2.0 the template without all the pain involved with using either template system.

SOLVED:

Simply place this code into your main_page.tpl.php where ever you want the shopping cart box to display.

<?php require(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'shopping_cart.php'); ?>

Remember to disable the shopping cart box in the infobox admin. This will stop it from displaying in the right or left column.

This will probably work for the other boxes, just replace "shopping_cart.php" for the other box php file.
