Getting rid of message

I have recently installed a zen cart store.
On the main page I can get rid of some of the messages if I go to:
Tools -->define pages"

However, I do not know form whre I can get rid of the message:

CongratulationsCongratulations! You have successfully installed your Zen Cart™ E-Commerce Solution.
Welcome Guest! Would you like to log yourself in?

From where can I delete it?:huh:

Thanks

Marlake

M, this might help a tad:

Main Page
A. Delete Customer Greeting
1. admin panel/ configuration/ layout settings/ Customer Greeting - Show on Index Page
1. set to 0

B. Categories-Tabs Menu On/OFF
   1. admin panel/ configuration/ layout settings/ categories-Tabs Menu ON/OFF
      1. set to 0

C. Main Page Wording
   1. admin panel/ tools/ define page editer/ select a file to edit/ main_page.php
      1. Highlight the text and delete
      2. save

D. Delete Congratulation you have successfully installed
   1. includes/ languages/ english / index.php
      1. Line 52 and edit to ''
      2. ftp to: includes/ languages/ english / override folder/ index.php

Thanks Haredo! Everything worked fine! :clap:

Can I bother you with something else?
In the index.php I have changed the "Congratulation you have installed..." for my own message. Could you tell me how can I change the font size and color of my message?

Thanks

Mar,

includes/ templates/ your_template/ css/ stylesheet.css

Add the following declaration to the sheet

1. #indexDefaultHeading {font-size: 1em;color: #FF0000;}
2. change the red font above as you would like for the main page

Yep, that works very well!:clap::clap:

Do you know how to change to blue (navy) color (do you know the code?)

Where can I read about the different codes to be used for different colors?

Thanks,
Marlake

M,
you are most welcome, glad I could assist you

I also changed the "Congratulations" text to something of my own but I cannot get this to work. The text just stays the same size and color. Maybe I'm "adding the declaration" incorrectly. I thought that just meant copy and paste that line into my stylesheet.css file but i guess not. :blush:

Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks!

R,
Is that your web site in your signature???
What color you need the text to read...

Maybe I'm "adding the declaration" incorrectly.
I looked at your stylesheet and #indexDefaultHeading is not present?

Are you editing the correct stylesheet.css file

You should be looking at the one at /includes/templates/my_own_template/css/stylesheet.css

Thanks for the replies.

Haredo,

Yes, but that's our live site. Guess I should've mentioned I'm working offline using WAMP. I'm not sure what color right now. I was just trying red for now to see if it would show up.

Kobra,

I am using the my_own_template/css/stylesheet.css.

Is there a particular place I need to paste the code in the stylesheet?

R,
Just add the declaration to the bottom.. Like Kobra says...

Hi again. Well, I uploaded the test "shop" here so you can take a look...

http://www.thewindcutter.com/shop/

I don't know what happened to my sideboxes. They line up (on the right side) just fine offline (using WAMP). Also, the customer gallery is supposed to pop up lightbox style when you click on it. That works fine offline too. :dontgetit

I pasted the

#indexDefaultHeading {font-size: 1em;color: #FF0000;}

line at the bottom of my CUSTOM_TEMPLATE/css/stylesheet.css but that didn't change a thing.

Instead of trying to customize that text, I know how to remove it but how do I remove the empty space left behind and move the rest of my page up to the top?

Thanks for any help,
Rebekah

includes/ templates/ your_template/ css/ stylesheet.css

Find the following:

2. .leftBoxFooter {

  background-image: url(../images/boxbottom.jpg);
  background-repeat: no-repeat;
  width: 160px;
  height: 7px;
  }

.rightBoxFooter {
background-image: url(../images/boxbottom.jpg);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
width: 160px;
height: 7px;
}

3. Change the red font to 173

Hmm. I tried that. What was it supposed to do? Widen the sideboxes? It doesn't seem to have worked.

Change to:

1. #indexDefaultHeading {font-size: 1em;color: #FF0000;}
2. change red font above to Categories
3. Off course you know you can change FF0000, which is red to whatever you like
   

That worked to change the font to red. Do you know how I would change the size?

Oh, drrrr. Sorry I bet you change the "font-size:"
