Add description to shipping method

Hi,
Could somebody tell me what code to add in order to add a description under the shipping method (on page 1 of checkout)? I want to add something to the effect of "International orders take 2-3 weeks".

Thanks!!

You can put information like that in includes/languages/english/html_includes/YOUR_TEMPLATE/define_shippinginfo.php

Thanks, but I don't have one of those pages. What do I have to do to add one?

Diane,

Copy the define_shippinginfo.php to your computer (local) in your ftp, make the changes you want and save the changes.

Now upload your edited define_shippinginfo.php to your CUSTOM folder.

Re: Add description to shipping method

Isn't that just the shipping information page? I want to add it on the checkout page.

Re: Add description to shipping method

Look at admin - define pages editor - checkout success.
Is that the page you want to edit?

Re: Add description to shipping method

OK,then make an override copy of the checkout file in the same way.
Probably /includes/templates/your_template/templates/tpl_checkout_shipping_default.php, or one of its neighbors.
