I would like to be able to show the greeting on all of the pages from tpl_header.php as well. It shows fine on the home page, but not on any other pages.

I am currently working on this also and I may have a possible solution although Im sure its not the best way of doing this...I included the following code inside tpl_header.php and it sorted the problem of pages other than the homepage displaying the message wrong.


define('TEXT_GREETING_GUEST', 'Welcome Guest');
define('TEXT_GREETING_PERSONAL', 'Hello <span class="greetUser">%s</span>!');

Good luck with this if anyone makes any further improvements please post them here so we can all benefit!

I did it the way imageriot did, but I don't know if there's a better way...

define('TEXT_GREETING_GUEST', 'Welcome Guest');
define('TEXT_GREETING_PERSONAL', 'Hello <span class="greetUser">%s</span>!');

thanks. that did the trick.
I pasted the code inside the english language folder into the "header.php" file just under "header_title_login" and now it works just as expected.

really really big thanks for the help.

includes/languages/english/header.php

paste anywhere (using common sense, needless to say)
define('TEXT_GREETING_GUEST', 'Welcome Guest');
define('TEXT_GREETING_PERSONAL', 'Hello <span class="greetUser">%s</span>!');

saved and solved.
