A simple solution to display upselling products in right column rather than at content part by default. Follow this steps.



step 1:

go to catalog.xml

Hide this block as

<!–<block type=”catalog/product_list_upsell” name=”product.info.upsell” as=”upsell_products” template=”catalog/product/list/upsell.phtml”>
<action method=”setColumnCount”><columns>4</columns></action>
<action method=”setItemLimit”><type>upsell</type><limit>4</limit></action>
</block>–>

step 2:

Add the following code

<block type=”catalog/product_list_upsell” name=”product.info.upsell” before=”-” template=”catalog/product/list/upsellright.phtml” />

after this code
<block type=”catalog/product_list_related” name=”catalog.product.related” before=”-” template=”catalog/product/list/related.phtml”/>

step 3:
go to catalog/product/view.phtml

then remove the following line or commend it
<?php echo $this->getChildHtml(‘upsell_products’) ?>
like this <?php //echo $this->getChildHtml(‘upsell_products’) ?>
————————————
step 4:

create upsellright.phtml in catalog/product/list folder
and paste the following code fully

<?php if(count($this->getItemCollection()->getItems())): ?>
<div class=”box base-mini mini-related-items”>
<div class=”head”>
<h4><?php echo $this->__(‘Upselling Products’) ?></h4>
</div>
<div class=”content”>

<ol>
<?php foreach($this->getItems() as $_item): ?>
<li<?php if($_item->isComposite() || !$_item->isSaleable()): ?> class=”super-products”<?php endif; ?>>
<div class=”product-images”>
<a href=”<?php echo $_item->getProductUrl()?>” style=”margin-left:0px;”><img src=”<?php echo $this->helper(‘catalog/image’)->init($_item, ‘thumbnail’)->resize(50) ?>” alt=”<?php echo $this->htmlEscape($_item->getName()) ?>” width=”50″ height=”50″ /></a>
</div>
<div class=”product-details” style=”margin-left:70px;”>
<a href=”<?php echo $_item->getProductUrl() ?>”><?php echo $this->htmlEscape($_item->getName()) ?></a>
<?php echo $this->getPriceHtml($_item, true) ?>
<?php if ($this->helper(‘wishlist’)->isAllow()) : ?>
<a href=”<?php echo $this->getAddToWishlistUrl($_item) ?>” class=”link-cart”><?php echo $this->__(‘Add to Wishlist’) ?></a>
<?php endif; ?>
</div>
</li>
<?php endforeach ?>
</ol>
</div>
</div>
<?php endif ?>
