Adding an independent menu. Help with php. - Joomla! Forum

hi there.

i purchased yootheme template. fine need menu on left stays same. i´ve been given solution:

initialize new yoomenu example 'othermenu' in joomla! example:

code:
$ytmainmenu = new ytsplitmenu("mainmenu", "mainmenu");
$ytothermenu = new ytsplitmenu("othermenu", "othermenu");
replace old left menu new $ytothermenu. example:

code:
$ytothermenu->setaccordionstyleforlevel(2);
$ytothermenu->setlistitembackgroundimage(true);
$ytothermenu->showmenu(1, -1);
$ytothermenu->setaccordionstyleforlevel(false);
$ytothermenu->setlistitembackgroundimage(false);

now, suppose goes in index.php, don´t know php. point out me put code in index.php? or where/which forum best find right solution?

i´ll give file, reads @ moment:

defined( '_valid_mos' ) or die( 'direct access location not allowed.' );
