    Default How do I change page title?

    https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/index.php?article=17
    This is the FAQ I was following.
    [SCR][/SCR] - this is what I did. but I'm still seeing the default title. Are you supposed to active the override somewhere? Was I supposed to delete the original meta.php file?

    What is your template name?
    Where did you upload this to - path
    Did you clear your browser cache?

    see now obviously I'm missing something. I never created a template name. I didn't see that in the instructions. the path is in the picture if you scroll to the right but here it is again


    includes/languages/english/custom

    I cleared my cache i even tried in a seperate browser.

    You "activate the override" by creating a custom template and selecting it from admin>tools>template selection. See the FAQ/Tutorials for information on creating a custom template or visit http://(sorry, site offline)/ to see the free templates available for Zen Cart in action.

    You can't just create one custom folder and expect the override to take place.

    see that didn't make sense to me either. but I didn't see any more steps. thanks. I'll work on the template. If got this correct what I do is create a template name like "SKI" and then just clone all the "CLASSIC" folders with the new name and then change that template_info.php page. something like that right? then I can edit the stuff in SKI so it'll show up right.

    Well i'm not sure how to edit so apologizes for the double post.

    Thanks again afo. Turns out the template was the problem. I still need find and clone the "Classic Green" and that's going to be a bugger of a job but it will work pretty much as I was trying to get it to work before. Problem solved.

    You don't need to clone all the folders and files. You only need to copy the files you need to modify. The free templates can be a great learning tool.
