Heading_title

Hi,
Wondering how to get rid of or modify the following on my site halfway down the page (http://hissigns.com/zencart/index.php?main_page=index):

HEADING_TITLE

TEXT_GREETING_GUEST
What does this do?

TThose are constants that should have defined text to display

Most commonly when a constant is displayed, it is the result of a mis-edited file

The developers tool kit can assist in locating them

Those are defined in includes/languages/english/index.php (or, if you've edited it, includes/languages/english/theme238/index.php), so that file is either missing, mis-edited or corrupted.


The kobra is quick ...

I don't know what to do still. I do know where to alter the TEXT_GREETING_GUEST section but how do I hide this title altogether?

That constant is defined in index.php. You've evidently incorrectly edited the file.

The original file (includes/languages/english/index.php) contains the following:

// Showcase vs Store
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.');
}

Copy/paste those lines into includes/languages/english/YOUR_TEMPLATE/index.php (where YOUR_TEMPLATE is the name of your custom template). If you don't want any greeting, change them to:

// Showcase vs Store
if (STORE_STATUS == '0') {
  define('TEXT_GREETING_GUEST', '');
} else {
  define('TEXT_GREETING_GUEST', '');
}

I made the single quotes different colors to make it clear.

As you have a template monster template it may or may not respond to standard settings as they take license with the way they code them

For the "TEXT_GREETING_GUEST", there is still a mis edit
but there is an admin switch for it in
admin > config > layout settings

I checked my code and it appears to be exactly the same as yours. Any other ideas?

Which "Title"/"Value"/"Action" do I need to change? I don't see one that can eliminate this.

Which "Title"/"Value"/"Action" do I need to change?

admin > config > layout settings > Customer Greeting - Show on Index Page

[habsolutely]

admin > config > layout settings > Customer Greeting - Show on Index Page

But it is already set to zero=off.
