Front Page Customer Name

[mhaase]

Is this possible to accomplish? Instead of "MY ACCOUNT" I'd like it to say "Hello, CUSTOMER NAME". I haven't had any luck searching for this answer, so any help would be appreciated!

Unless you've changed the greeting, the customer's name will be displayed once he/she logs in.

Oh... I'm using a template, so maybe it overwrote it?

Either way, I looked in the default template english for header.php and found:

// header text in includes/header.php
define('HEADER_TITLE_CREATE_ACCOUNT', 'Create Account');
define('HEADER_TITLE_MY_ACCOUNT', 'My Account');
define('HEADER_TITLE_CART_CONTENTS', 'Shopping Cart');
define('HEADER_TITLE_CHECKOUT', 'Checkout');
define('HEADER_TITLE_TOP', 'Top');
define('HEADER_TITLE_CATALOG', 'Home');
define('HEADER_TITLE_LOGOFF', 'Log Out');
define('HEADER_TITLE_LOGIN', 'Log In');

So does the default actually show the name in the upper right corner on the front page?

No, what I'm talking about is the greeting that appears. Once the customer logs in, it will change to include the customer's name. I suppose you could change the literal for the account, but I'd have to look into it. Someone else may jump in with a suggestion before I get an opportunity to investigate.

Look at this, too:

Nice! I never noticed that one! I might give it a try myself.
