Want to change Bread Crumb "Home" Text

Hello,
I am a very new Zen Cart user, and I have spent the latter half of this afternoon searching for the file that contains the code that is responsible for displaying "home" within the bread crumb.

I would like to change that text from home to 'products and services' since my zen cart is not installed on my root directory.

You can find my site at:
http://www.simplydelightfuldesigns.com/productsandservices (this is not the homepage, but according to the breadcrumb trail which I have set up to only become visible when viewing a category or product, it says home). I just don't want customers to get confused when they see the home in the top nav area which leads them to my true home - simplydelightfuldesigns.com

Any help would be GREATLY APPRECIATED!!

Re: Want to change Bread Crumb "Home" Text

Hi,

Your need to copy the file /includes/languages/english/header.php to /includes/languages/english/YOUR_TEMPLATE/header.php where YOUR_TEMPLATE is the name of your template. If this directory does not exist you will need to create it.

Edit /includes/languages/english/YOUR_TEMPLATE/header.php and change the line that says...

  define('HEADER_TITLE_CATALOG', 'Home');
```..to..
```php
  define('HEADER_TITLE_CATALOG', 'Products and Services');
```..or whatever you desire. Note that this will effect other places that 'Home' is used, not just the bread crumb.

Regards,
Christian.

Re: Want to change Bread Crumb "Home" Text

Thank you for replying - I will get to work on trying this. And thank you for the warning about it changing other areas - the 'home' link that we are seeing in the header is actually part of an image map link, so I'm fairly sure that won't be affected, and I don't think I have the 'home' link anywhere else other than the breadcrumb, so I think that change would be ok.

the directions seem a little confusing, so it might take a few tries... I'll post with an update!! Thanks!

I followed those directions very carefully - and it has not changed anything. I also tried refreshing the cache and a hard refresh with ctrl+f5 and I'm not seeing a difference on my end. still looking.....

Re: Want to change Bread Crumb "Home" Text

WHOOOOOO HOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Here is what worked for me:

I found this header.php file here (out of like a GA-zillion header.php's - I just went down the list and tried your above directions in about each of them):

/includes/languages/english/classic/header.php (where classic is the name of my template - I had not copied the files the right way earlier, I guess, and finally got it to the right place - somehow)

So I opened it and found this:
define('HEADER_TITLE_CATALOG', 'Home');

And changed it to:
define('HEADER_TITLE_CATALOG', 'Products & Services');

Thank you for your help! Hopefully this will help others too!
