Hi Guys

I have been playing around with Zentools on the corporation template, and I have made a change to /modules/mod_zentools2/tmpl/elements/category.php, just to wrap the CatTitle link in a h2 tag.

My question is how can I add this as a new layout/option so my changes dont get overridden on the next Zentools update? Is this possible just by adding some code to the helper files?

Cheers

Chris

Hi Chris,
You can actually just add your own layout file.

- so add category_chris.php to the tpls/elements/ folder
- then add category_chris to the settings/sources/joomla.xml file like this:

<item>category_chris</item>

Then you will have category chris in the layout tool.

Thanks!

Beautiful thanks Anthony, I knew it was going to be easy, I just couldn't figure out which xml file file to add it too.

Thanks again
