Welcome message removal

[kobra]

You should only remove the text between the ser of single quotes and wind up with

define('HEADING_TITLE', '');

thanks for your reply kobra

Can anyone see the problem?

thanks

Yes - you've removed a chunk of code that defines the TEXT_GREETING stuff. This just means that those items aren't defined as anything - Zencart will still try to call them when necessary, and the TEXT_GREETING_WHATEVER will be substituted.

Write a new, unmodified copy of index.php to the includes/languages/english folder and make your changes as kobra suggested - just remove the text between the single quote marks.

thanks stevesh

I think I should have been more specific.
I am trying to delete the Welcome guest, welcome Derek do you want to see our new products etc. sections with the code:

Showcase vs Store
if (STORE_STATUS == '0') {
define('TEXT_GREETING_GUEST', 'Welcome <span class="greetUser">Guest!</span> Would you like to <a href="%s">log yourself in</a>?');
} else {
define('TEXT_GREETING_GUEST', 'Welcome, please enjoy our online showcase.');
}

define('TEXT_GREETING_PERSONAL', 'Hello <span class="greetUser">%s</span>! Would you like to see our <a href="%s">newest additions</a>?');

define('TEXT_INFORMATION', 'Define your main Index page copy here.');[/COLOR]


and just leave 'Welcome to Baitworks Online Store!!

any help much appreciated

Change

if (STORE_STATUS == '0') {
define('TEXT_GREETING_GUEST', 'Welcome <span class="greetUser">Guest!</span> Would you like to <a href="%s">log yourself in</a>?');
} else {
define('TEXT_GREETING_GUEST', 'Welcome, please enjoy our online showcase.');
}

define('TEXT_GREETING_PERSONAL', 'Hello <span class="greetUser">%s</span>! Would you like to see our <a href="%s">newest additions</a>?');

define('TEXT_INFORMATION', 'Define your main Index page copy here.');[/color]

to

if (STORE_STATUS == '0') {
define('TEXT_GREETING_GUEST', '');
} else {
define('TEXT_GREETING_GUEST', ''');
}

define('TEXT_GREETING_PERSONAL', '');

define('TEXT_INFORMATION', 'Define your main Index page copy here.');[/color]

I'm not sure about the TEXT_INFORMATION. I'd have to look at what I have.

[Derek Bryant]

many thanks Mary Ellen

Wouldn't it be easier to turn the Greeting off from the Admin?
