Banners

Hi

From what I have read, you can change the headings of Banners from Sponors to whatever you want, using the English.php file.

I have done so:

// banner_box
define('BOX_HEADING_BANNER_BOX','Shipping Info');
define('TEXT_BANNER_BOX','Please Visit Our Sponsors ...');

// banner box 2
define('BOX_HEADING_BANNER_BOX2','Have you seen ...');
define('TEXT_BANNER_BOX2','Check this out today!');

// banner_box - all
define('BOX_HEADING_BANNER_BOX_ALL','Shipping info');
define('TEXT_BANNER_BOX_ALL','Please Visit Our Sponsors ...');

But it has remained "Sponsors"

Any assistance?

All help appreciated

Thanks
S

Re: Banners

That is the correct file. Did you make sure to drop it in includes/languages/YOUR_TEMPLATE/english.php

The best way to learn is to try stuff. But, back it up first.

Re: Banners

Thanks. Got it.
Is there also any way to adjust the LENGTH of a sidebox.
if you go to my site: http://www.pcselect.co.za - you will see, even though my images are cropped, odd spaces are left in the Live Support box and shipping sidebox.

Thanks

Re: Banners

I think you would adjust the bottom padding in the sideBoxContent class in the stylesheet. That's just a guess, though.

Thank you.
