How we can create content section in xcart like we create in wordpress via widget ? is there any option like this ? i want to make home page with 4 section with image content and link them to particular page .
This differs depending on X-Cart version. There are two major versions now: X-Cart 4 and X-Cart 5. They are very different and in order to give you any advice it is better to now what X-Cart version you are using.
Alex Mulin is right, it's kinda difficult to answer your question without such specific info as your X-Cart version. Yet I'll try to. In both cases the webmaster mode can help you do the trick. See video tutorials below.
Webmaster mode in X-Cart 4 :

Webmaster mode in X-Cart 5:

If they don't work for you for some reason, try to ask the same question but be a bit more specific, or at least provide the store URL and I will be able to check the version.
What you are trying to do is skin-dependent and each skin has its own sections.
In order to find the files that you need to edit, go to Admin Panel>Settings>General Settings>Enable debugging console and check its box.
When checked, if you open your store, it opens a popup that that shows you the smarty templates loaded (make sure your browser does not block popups).
You can then change the smarty template files in order to add whatever you want. If you are not familiar with them, they are basically extended HTML files with some basic commands (if/for/etc.) and you can get stuff from PHP files in them as well. You can use xcart webmaster mode to edit those files too as mentioned by other answers.

And here's some XCart documentation on how to customize store front and skins:

Im currently looking into the MURA cms. and while it looks quite nice. I cant seem to alter something that appears to be quite trivial on other platforms.
Im simply wanting to know the location of where the base login form template resides whether it be in a JS file or as a simple .cfm template.
Any ideas greatly apprecated
thanks in advance
You can overwrite/customise the display object that renders the login form.
Take a look at the following documentation on how to:
http://docs.getmura.com/v6/front-end/customizations-staying-on-the-upgrade-path/customizing-display-objects/
And this is the file you want to modify:
https://github.com/blueriver/MuraCMS/blob/develop/default/includes/display_objects/dsp_login.cfm
probably a stupid question, but I can not figure out where to go to give the name of the font (which is already in the native template) within the code of Joomla 2.5 to insert the icon next to the title of a menu'. Thank you very much for the help...

Far from a stupid question, this is the method I use.
See the post from Mark Vink at Add custom element to home menu item in Joomla .
See also my comment on the same post for details on how to make a template overide for /modules/mod_menu/tmpl/default.php
Good luck!
I am beginner to joomla, currently using version 2.5. I have came across a problem with pagination. In my site pagination on all the pages were working well, but suddenly, I don't see any pagination for any page. I don't realized, what setting from admin panel I have changed. I have checked the settings from the Article Manger->options->Shared Options, but all are ok.
Is there any other settings in admin panel to show pagination?
Any help appreciated.
Thanks.
You must seach this in Article Manger->options->"First Tab"
But it can be also placed in the main menu item: Menu->MainMenu->"First item" general settings...
I have realize the problem, when I put <jdoc:include type="module" name="cblogin" /> in my template file, then all the pagination links get disappeared. I have also checked with putting below code -
jimport('joomla.application.module.helper');
$mods = JModuleHelper::getModules('cblogin');
echo JModuleHelper::renderModule($mods[0]);
but, nothing has changed. Is there any other solution to load module into html code?
If you want to add modules to articles, one way is to add a custom position to the article then assign the module to that position. In the article editor add this code
[loadposition myNewPosition]
Then you can assign any module to myNewPosition on the position option. Make sure the module is assigned to all pages.
I am trying to use the ja_nickel template in my site. It can be previewed in:
http://www.joomlart.com/demo/#templates.joomlart.com/ja_nickel
I am trying to show my latest news in the top information block. It consists of title, thumbnail image and some text. So dun know which one module to use?
any idea will be helpful.
thank you.
Use the core Joomla! newsfeed option. It pulls from articles and organizes it by the latest article created via the timestamp.
