    Default Re: Change the "Home" URL

    Your "Home" link is set by Zen Cart dynamically in both configure.php files...

    But FOR EXAMPLE, you can edit the top header link in the header tpl file to "/" for domain url (http://yourdomain.com/) w/o it being main_page=index for example.

    Default Re: Change the "Home" URL

    Hi there - thanks for your reply. I have looked through the tpl_header file but cannot find a reference to the "home" link (am not a PHP person!!) Is there a title for the element like (HEADER_TITLE_CART_CONTENTS) that I can run a serach on?

    Many thanks

    Default Re: Change the "Home" URL

    Hi Melanie, unfortunately it is on an internal test environment - I am evaluating zen cart - but it is taking a lot longer than expected!! I am more used to classic asp and html, and I am struggling to understand the zen cart structure and which bits drive what. Just so you know, when I click on the "home" link it takes me to http://zen-store/ where I then have a list of the files in the root - which include the index page.

    Not much help then as this is a config issue very likely and without the file structure I really can't help.

    Sorry,
