box.tpl.php and a couple of modules...

[Fontosaurus]

Okay, using BTS 1.2a, I've managed to modify box.tpl.php to allow me to modify the way the boxes in the side columns appear. However, the two modules that appear in the main content area on the homepage, the Default Specials and the New Products boxes, don't seem to take the box format. I've been staring at the code for hours now...what am I missing?

Thanks!

stylesheet.css?

Nice, but not the answer.

The issue is that the modules don't call the template and for the consistency factor, I need them to.

Any ideas?

default_specials.php and new_products.php do not have the following:

require(DIR_WS_TEMPLATES . TEMPLATENAME_BOX);

compare category.php and information.php and you will see both of these call for the template_box... default and new (which are in includes/modules) do not call for the template...try adding the line

This is generally the line of inquiry I've been taking. So far, I'm having good results, and have actually done some re-writes of the code that draws these two modules. I'll post updates for people who want to use the same trick with their sites.
