Magento – Change position of Cart Link in Top Links

layoutmagento-1toplinks

I want to put the Cart link at the end of the top links – ideally using my local.xml file.

Most top links are added like this:

<reference name="top.links">
      <action method="addLink" translate="label title" module="customer"><label>My Account</label><url helper="customer/getAccountUrl"/><title>My Account</title><prepare/><urlParams/><position>10</position></action>
</reference>

where I can obviously change the position.

But the cart links seem to be added like this:

<block type="checkout/links" name="checkout_cart_link">
       <action method="addCartLink"></action>
       <action method="addCheckoutLink"></action>
</block>

How do I change the position of a link that doesn't use the addLink method?

The position is hardcoded in /app/code/core/Mage/Checkout/Block/Links.php:

$parentBlock->addLink($text, 'checkout/cart', $text, true, array(), 50, null, 'class="top-link-cart"');

The cart is pos 50 and the checkout link is pos 60. So maybe the easiest way is to position all top.links below 50. But to place just the cart link at the end you would have to rewrite the addCartLink() method.

Customer Account – Remove Newsletter Link from Navigation

You need to rewrite Magento's Customer Mage_Customer_Block_Account_Navigation Block class.

create config.xml file in the app/code/local/Neo/CustomerNavigationLinks/etc

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config>
    <modules>
        <Neo_CustomerNavigationLinks>
            <version>0.0.1</version>
        </Neo_CustomerNavigationLinks>
    </modules>
    <global>
        <blocks>
            <customer>
                <rewrite>
                    <account_navigation>Neo_CustomerNavigationLinks_Block_Account_Navigation</account_navigation>
                </rewrite>
            </customer>
        </blocks>
        <helpers>
            <customernavigationlinks>
                <class>Neo_CustomerNavigationLinks_Helper</class>
            </customernavigationlinks>
        </helpers>
    </global>
</config>

in Neo/CustomerNavigationLinks/Block/Account/ careate a file called Navigation.php with the following content in it

<?php

class Neo_CustomerNavigationLinks_Block_Account_Navigation extends Mage_Customer_Block_Account_Navigation
{
    public function removeLinkByName($name)
    {
        unset($this->_links[$name]);
        return $this;
    }
}
?>

in app/etc/modules create a file called Neo_CustomerNavigationLinks.xml with the following content

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config>
    <modules>
        <Neo_CustomerNavigationLinks>
            <active>true</active>
            <codePool>local</codePool>
        </Neo_CustomerNavigationLinks>
    </modules>
</config>

Now in local.xml add following content

<customer_account>
        <reference name="customer_account_navigation">
            <action method="removeLinkByName">
                <name>newsletter</name> 
            </action>
        </reference>
</customer_account>
