Can't remove/delete welcome message?

Hi

I know the method of deteting the welsome message (see below) is well documented, but i can't see a way of deleting it and removing completely.

"Congratulations! You have successfully installed your Zen Cart™ E-Commerce Solution."

I have edited the main page slightly and taken out both of the below peices of code:

<h1 id="indexDefaultHeading"><?php echo HEADING_TITLE; ?></h1>

<?php if (SHOW_CUSTOMER_GREETING == 1) { ?>
<h2 class="greeting"><?php echo zen_customer_greeting(); ?></h2>
<?php } ?>

The welcome mesage still shows.

I have also used override techniques so the original 'tpl_index_default.php' file in the 'template_default' folder remains untouched.

The intro content (image and text) you see on the main page has been entered via the 'Define Pages Editor'

Anyone have an ideas?

Don't make this so hard....find your index.php file and edit it...this is towards the bottom and if you want nothing delete the text between the single quotes leaving the set of single quotes intact. It appears 2 times so edit both lines.

Go back and remove the other edited files.

Save your edited index.php to the appropriate override folder

Done

Bingo

I'm sure i tried that, must have been working too hard and too late.

I can feel the frustration in your response, but it has been said and is true, Zen is not easy to customise if you are not familiar with it - it's taking days! It can muddle your brain and make you do and miss silly things (like this!)

The actual functionality of the software looks better and better every day, so that's no problem.

It's just the customisation, it's a mine field, different elements need to be changed in different folders all over the shop, just seems a little bit random sometimes.

Needless to say, I have donated and will again, several times, in the future.

Thanks

it's taking days!
