Text_greeting_guest

[DragoTPE]

I messed up-

apparently if you remove the text defining a variable it breaks it- so i restored teh file and I can't fix it

my index now just states "TEXT_GREETING_GUEST"

Is there a setting somewhere that defaults to just this? i have been searching the dev tool for a while and can't find it/ I figured reloading the backed up file would fix it but it didn't

looking- looks right from what i can see.....

{
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.');
}

i broke it again- how does the override work?

Take a look at this FAQ - http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/faq.ph...r&titlesonly=0

Also, look at the sticky threads at the top of this section of the forum (first steps).

Other good material in the FAQ and Wiki. As you create override folders, only put in files that you actually edit. Best to start with template_default rather than Classic if using 1.3+. Don't forget to edit template_info and then turn on the custom template in the Admin.

Best wishes

This Over-ride process would be 300% easier by just doing an override folder. Call it override- and any contents there would take precedence. this process is used in other applications and modding in games.

but that's my 2 cents- working on this process

thanks all

discovery-

Regarding the HEADING etc that show up-
be careful what you use as your php/text editor. some editers can break the code

Perhaps I have misunderstood your post but the template override does exactly what you just said. When a file is present in the override folders, overrides the default file.

You can use any name you want for you custom template.

If I have misunderstood your post, which seems likely, please enlighten me.
