    nope...sorry, tried that.

    the issue i have is when someone clicks on ''notify me of product updates''...it takes them into a create account page.

    it asks for country- everything actually..

    i only want it to ask for name and email.

    any ideas?

    anyone?

    At this time you only have the full create account. You might be able to adapt one of the Subscription add-ons.
    Please do not PM for support issues: a private solution doesn't benefit the community.

    Be careful with unsolicited advice via email or PM - Make sure the person you are talking to is a reliable source.

    Hi iv managed to get rid of some of the fields on the create account page (iv left the ones i need)

    http://unikids.splay.co.uk/zencart/i...ain_page=login

    but when they click submit..the error message "PLEASE SELECT YOUR COUNTRY FROM THE DROP DOWN LISt"

    Iv deleted the drop down list as i dont need it, but how can i let customers submit the form?

    iv made a search i the delevlopers tool kit for the error message..

    /home/vjain/public_html/unikids/zencart/includes/languages/english.php
    Line #463 : define('ENTRY_COUNTRY_ERROR', 'You must select a country from the Countries pull down menu.');


    But when i open the file..its not even in there???

    It's in there. I was able to find it. There are country error messages defined around lines 194 and 242.

    A word of warning. You should NOT be editing includes/languages/english.php. You should copy includes/languages/english.php into includes/languages/YOUR_TEMPLATE and english.php there.

    :-( were you able to find the line 'You must select a country from the Countries pull down menu.???

    iv made a search for that statement in the developers tool kit and it comes across as the english.pp file

    /home/vjain/public_html/unikids/zencart/includes/languages/english.php

    Line #455 : define('ENTRY_STATE_ERROR_SELECT', 'Please select a state from the States pull down menu.');

    Line #463 : define('ENTRY_COUNTRY_ERROR', 'You must select a country from the Countries pull down menu.');


    but i cant seem to find that line?

    as you stated i should edit the english.php in my template...i have made a folder in public_html/unikids/zencart/includes/languages/blue_sky/english.php

    and editing that now..is that ok???
