Re: Need help on changing text

Not really sure what you're referring to.

A lot of the default text will disappear when you start your custom template. You can see the free templates available for Zen Cart at http://(sorry, site offline)/. Use the pulldown menu to change templates and see what they'll look like on a live site.

There's lot of information about customizing information in the Tutorials/FAQ and Wiki.

Re: Need help on changing text

This is the Lite Red template by 12leaves.com

The above text is editable in the admin > tools > define page editor > select main_page.php

Footer
https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/index.php?article=131

logo alt text includes/languages/english/lite_red/header.php

Find this and it will have the text between the pair of single quotes that you MUST not delete
Make it what you want

define('HEADER_ALT_TEXT', 'Powered by Zen Cart :: The Art of E-Commerce');

Look at the file structure that came with the template and see what the path/folder contains that file
