Do you have both bits of code in the tpl_product_info_display.php or just the one?

Sorry if this seems like a daft question only that's the only was I can think of that would show both the button and the text.

just 2 set of code
On the following line, insert this block of code:

   <span id="productQuestions" class="biggerText">
   

   <?php echo '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_ASK_A_QUESTION, 'products_id=' . $_GET['products_id']) . '">' . ASK_A_QUESTION . '[/url]'; ?>
   </span>
   <br class="clearBoth" />

Alternately, you may use the button provided.  To do this, insert

   <div id="askQuestion" class="biggerText">
   <?php echo '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_ASK_A_QUESTION, 'products_id='
   . $_GET['products_id']) . '">' .
   zen_image_button(BUTTON_IMAGE_ASK_A_QUESTION, BUTTON_ASK_A_QUESTION_ALT) .
   '[/url]'; ?></div>
   

   <br class="clearBoth" />

Sorry I'm knackered right now please bear with me :D Paperwork is horribly tiring and confusing.

So you just have this code:

<div id="askQuestion" class="biggerText">

   <?php echo '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_ASK_A_QUESTION, 'products_id='

   . $_GET['products_id']) . '">' .

   zen_image_button(BUTTON_IMAGE_ASK_A_QUESTION, BUTTON_ASK_A_QUESTION_ALT) .

   '[/url]'; ?></div>

and nothing else?

If so then the text shouldn't show up unless you don't have the button image installed.

is it just the sidebox your still struggling with?

if it is you need to go into includes/templates/template_default/sideboxes/ and find the file relative to the sidebox you want to sort,

I had a wee look through the mod files you're using and I cant see any sidebox files in there, so Im not sure the name of the file you need,

whats the name of the sidebox its showing in? ie, more information, bannerbox all etc,

ok I have deleted every file for ask a question and deleted from layouts, as I had 2 different versions with version 1.3.5 being the first installed then tried the 1.3.9
What should I do with the custom folders as I placed those in the folders instead of the files ...maybe that's where I went wrong

I change the custom folders to the name of my template and then upload them via FTP
