Congratulations Message/Welcome Message

[mxer269]

Hi,

I can't find where to edit the Congratulations & Welcome messages..

according to http://www.zen-cart.com/wiki/index.php/Top_10_questions, this is how I'm supposed to do it:

How do I Change the Congratulations! Message?

If you want to change the Congratulations! You have successfully installed your Zen Cart™ E-Commerce Solution? Text with your own open the includes/languages/ENGLISH/index.php file and find the following code:

// This section deals with the "home" page at the top level with no options/products selected
/*Replace this text with the headline you would like for your shop.
For example: 'Welcome to My SHOP!'*/
define('HEADING_TITLE', 'Congratulations! You have successfully installed your
Zen Cart™ E-Commerce Solution.');
} elseif ($category_depth == 'nested') {
// This section deals with displaying a subcategory
/*Replace this line with the headline you would like for your shop. For
example: 'Welcome to My SHOP!'*/
define('HEADING_TITLE', 'Congratulations! You have successfully installed your
Zen Cart™ E-Commerce Solution.');
}

Replace the text starting Congratulations with your own text. Make sure that the single quote marks are not left out, save the file and upload to your server.


[edit]
How do I Change the Welcome Guest Message?

If you want to eliminate Welcome Guest! Would you like to log yourself in? message completely, turn off the Customer Greeting in your Admin > Configuration > Layout settings > Customer Greeting > Show on Index Page and set to 0.


If you want to replace this message with one of your own, start your text editor and open the includes/languages/ENGLISH/index.php file and locate these lines of code:


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>!');


I can't find the index.php file in my directory though! any suggestions?

Thanks for helping out a noob
