Editing my Welcome Email

[a wee laddie]

Hi everyone,
I've done a search and had a look at the faqs, but I can't see an answer to this yet.
I'm trying to edit my welcome email, so there is no mention of any gift voucher.
This is the text that currently appears in the email, and the bit that I want to get rid of is in italics:

We wish to welcome you to (my shop).

Congratulations! To make your next visit to our online shop a more rewarding experience,

listed below are details for a Discount Coupon created just for you!

10% Discount for (voucher)

To use the Discount Coupon, enter the Redemption Code code during checkout:

(voucher name)

With your account, you can now take part in the various servic....



However, I've tried commenting out lines, using the // at the start of each line where it says 'define...' and the result is this:

We wish to welcome you to (my shop).

EMAIL_COUPON_INCENTIVE_HEADER10% Discount for (voucher)

EMAIL_COUPON_REDEEMEMAIL_SEPARATOR

With your account, you can now take part in the various servic....



which was a bit weird, especially after I deleted these commented out lines, and the lines:

EMAIL_COUPON_INCENTIVE_HEADER10% Discount for (voucher)

EMAIL_COUPON_REDEEMEMAIL_SEPARATOR

are still there, even with nothing in the code to indicate there should be anything there.
Any ideas on how to get rid of the

EMAIL_COUPON_INCENTIVE_HEADER10% Discount for (voucher)

EMAIL_COUPON_REDEEMEMAIL_SEPARATOR

bit?
Thanks in advance,
a wee laddie

You want to remove the gift card info from the welcome email?

Thats depends on the value of variable NEW_SIGNUP_DISCOUNT_COUPON in admin\email_welcome.php

First, why are you commenting-out any lines?
When you do that, you just create confusion.
If you don't like what a defined value says, define it to a blank value, instead of commenting it out.

Second, if you don't want to send customers a notice about a coupon or gift certificate auto-generated for them, then just don't generate them.
You can turn that functionality off in Admin->Configuration->GV Coupons.
Then your emails won't mention it.
No need to edit any files.

Thanks for your replies, I will try what you have suggested. This is all fairly new to me.

Well that was simple - I did what DrByte suggested. The reason I'd tried commenting/editing was that I'd read something in the faqs here:

that seemed to be almost what I wanted, and it mentions finding line numbers of the html.
Thanks again, from a wee laddie.
