removing sales message goes here?

It's at the very top, how do you remove it? I can't find it anywhere.

You might wish to read the FAQs or the Wiki or just do a search on the forum for: sales message

Also, if you peek in the Admin at the Tools ... Developer's Tool Kit ... you can use the bottom input box to locate any text, constant or variable that is in a php file ... just pick where to search from the dropdown and click search ...

If you need to search for a configuration_key that you found in a file, use the top box and do not select anything from the dropdown and just click Search ...

The file that you need to edit is in htdocs/includes/languages/english/classic

Download and edit the file header.php with your favorite text editor and unload the new header.php to that directory. You can make a backup of this original file first in your PC before editing the file just in case something goes wrong.

NOTE: you should be using your own templates and overrides directory and not Classic ...

Otherwise ... next upgrade ... kaboom!! There goes the neighborhood and you lose all of your customization ...

Thanks for the update. I wasn't aware of that. I do have a backup copy of all of my customizations on CD just in case.

Excuse me if this is an obvious question but I want to be sure....

Does zen cart do automatic upgrades without my knowledge? And if so does it auto wipe any changes I have made to the classic template?

And if so is there any way to stop this?

[gjh42]

No, Zen Cart does not do automatic upgrades. The admin has a setting (on by default) to automatically check for upgrades, but you have to download and install them yourself.

If you run an upgrade, changes to the classic template will automatically be wiped out. The way to preserve your changes would be to copy all /classic/ folders with their files to /your_template/ folders in parallel with the classic ones. Then follow the template instructions in the FAQ, including editing the template_info.php and turning the template on in admin. Now your changes are safe.

I would...if I knew how. I've just had zen cart for 3 days. I'm having download problems. My test download links are not showing up. I set it up as a freebie and when the dummy account I made in my shop is at the my account section, the download button is there. The problem is when I hit that button, I get a no download page error message or something like that. I've put the correct option name, value and attributes to it so that a radio button shows up, the file is in the /download directory and I still get this error. I'm stumped at the moment. Any ideas what I did wrong?
