Welcome email help

[RichardKletty]

Ive been working on the welcome email and have almost completed it but need a little advice here. At the very bottom of the email where is says "sincerely" you have the link to the store there so folks can click it.

Id like to change that to a different address. Can someone tell me what portion of the code thats there needs to be replaced?

Id like it to go to the actual company website.

Right now I have
www.all-americanairsystems.com/store

Id like it to be
www.all-americanairsystems.com

Thanks in advance for the help!

This tutorial will help https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/index.php?article=20 however you may have to hard code the link since the file is coded to read directly from the directory the store resides in.

Around line 37 through 40 is where this is edited in /includes/languages/english/create_account.php

I got that part. Im in there right now. However, it points to something that is already defined which is in the config file. wondering if I can take that define code out of the create account file and just add an <a href=> code.

Richard,

Yes this would be where the hard coding would come like said above.

Change

define('EMAIL_GV_CLOSURE','Sincerely,' . "\n\n" . STORE_OWNER . "\nStore Owner\n\n". '<a href="' . HTTP_SERVER . DIR_WS_CATALOG . '">'.HTTP_SERVER . DIR_WS_CATALOG ."</a>\n\n");

to

define('EMAIL_GV_CLOSURE','Sincerely,' . "\n\n" . STORE_OWNER . "\nStore Owner\n\n". '<a href="http://www.yourdomain.com">The Domain You Want Here</a>\n\n");

Where you replace your domain to the actual domain and The Domain you want here to your store name

Thanks, I thought I tried that but it didnt work. Ill try again right now and let you know.

Nope, I got a programming error. I changed it to this....

define('EMAIL_GV_CLOSURE','Sincerely,' . "\n\n" . STORE_OWNER . "\nRichard F. Kletty III, Owner\n\n". '<a href="http://www.all-americanairsystems.com">All-American Air Systems, LLC</a>\n\n"); 

Am I missing something?

It worked when I had the change made only to my name but once I add the URL I get the programming error.

[knuckle-101]

Try this file attached replace the one you have, only replace it if you are running 1.3.8a, it where this file came from.

See what happens

Same thing. I can copy the old one back and its fine. Has all my changes except the url change I want. It was worth a try though.

Yours looked just like mine. There is something else going on for sure.

When you added the URL, you started adding mismatched quotes without escaping them. Hence the programming error.

So, how shall I go about escaping the quotes kind sir?

I'd sure like to get it sorted. I think I have everything else in order, just need this simple change completed.

I am assuming I need to do something with the quotes in the <h ref> section where the quotes are?

\n after the first quote and then \n\n after the second quotes? Please advise...
