Custom Menu extension

If you need our custom menu layout, please load and install the Custom Magento menu extension

Shipping price calculator and One page checkout

Included in the package please check magento backend system->configuration->web-and-people section.
If you get 404 error when you try to access any extension, please relogin to the backend.

If you are using non English language(es):

"Most Popular" sentence is not present in the default language packs. We need to add it manually.

Open file directory where your magento is. Go to "app/design/frontend/default/lightshop_blue/locale/"

There is a "en_US/translate.csv" file there. Copy it to any locale you need (like "da_DK/translate.csv") and edit "translate.csv" file.

It holds this text:

"Most Popular","Most Popular"

You need to change it to:

"Most Popular","[[Most popular in your language]]"

Note that file encoding should be UTF8.
