Help getting rid of unwanted text in header

[DarkAngel]

this is the text:

[FONT=verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif]ABOUT US Sample Text ...[/FONT]
This section of text is from the Define Pages Editor located under Tools in the Admin.
You can use either the language-file in /includes/languages/english/MYTEMPLATE/about_us.php or this file separately for this page or, you can use both together.
To remove the language file definition, do not delete the define statement, set it to be blank. Example: define('TEXT_INFORMATION', '');
To remove this section of the text (which you're reading right now), delete it from the Define Pages Editor, located under Tools in the Admin.

Now there is absolutely no file for about us anywhere on the server. We had tried to change templates and uploaded files for oxford dark but it will not behave in the live store at all so it got removed. The only sql that was installed for it was for the layout to be rows or columns and that has been taken out of tables too. I have checked and there is nothing in any of the tables for about us either.

So can someone lease help us get rid of this small problem? I used view source and it does not show up in the source code either, needless to say I am at a loss totally.

Why don't you find it using Developers Tool Kit? Use Look-up in all files, search for "ABOUT US Sample Text" and select "All Files - Catalog". That will show you where the text is located...

But, the question is why it's coming up at all, you must have included the define page somewhere where it shouldn't be in the core files...

Trust me --- that is what has me yanking my hair out. I have used the Dev tools from admin several time at different times of the day and different computers (in case my browser was just not letting go of cache), deleted cache, rebooted the computer and even looked through all the tables in database and the text is not coming up ANYWHERE at all. The tool kit did not render any findings in each and every section.

I will look through all the directories again tonight to see if that about us page is anywhere, I have since removed the template that was needing it and all its files associated with it in the directories it said to plop them in.

This is so weird, I have never had this happen to me before---now clients tell me they have overwritten files or images and the old still show when they view but not for me I see their new stuff...I was really hoping this would be the same for this...wishful thinking.

Thanks

This is by no means a fix, but add this to a stylesheet so it doesn't display until you can find and delete it:

#indexBody p {display: none;}

Hard to believe it doesn't show up in the Developers Tool Kit. Try using the DTK to search for this section of text - you'll get several files returned, but one of them should be some file other than those in the html_includes folders.

I will try again in DTK, I tried looking for just about us and nothing showed I also tried to pick out several words and that did not work either.

I added the code to stylesheet and now it is hidden leaving only adark gray section at the very top.

will do the searching again later today and report back.

Following an upgrade from Zen-Cart 1.3.9 to 1.5.1, unwanted text has also been introduced into in the header of the Zen-Cart module section - (see below). Searches such as "grep -i -n -r 'com.apple.quarantineq' zencart/" are not coming up with any response. Suggestions?

Also a search through a mysqldump does not reveal any of the offending text.

Seems like something corrupt on your site/server.

If you posted a link there might be better answers from the ones with more knowledge...LOL

gotta luv mac...

did you try

xattr -d com.apple.quarantine /path/to/YOUR_ADMIN/modules.php

or maybe /path/includes/modules/payment/ALL_FILES
or /path/includes/languages/english/modules/payment/ALL_FILES

If that doesn't work, move to linux.
