Newbie question

My host is lunarpages. They have one click installation on zen cart. I have used the faq here to change a few things but many times it states to go to admin instead of giving me a file to go to to change the coding.

I'm confused. Am I doing something wrong. For instance I would like to replace the top banner and replace the top left logo. Not sure how to do this I have the images uploaded in the file faq said to create but what file do I go to to edit.

Thank you in advance

my site is https://www.digitalbydemand.com

Hi Kelin,

First make your site modular by following instructions and whatever else you find about the subject matter

To change the log go to the includes\templates\YOUR STORE\Images (change logo.gif )

The disable the banner on the top login to your admin>tools>banner manager.

How do I get to admin area?

I only have zen cart on my server. in c panel I go to file manager, public html, digitalbydemand and find each folder that contains the code I want to change and change it.

You access admin by going to https://www.digitalbydemand.com/admin

You'll need the login and password that your host entered when they installed Zencart. I assume they sent you that info in an email.

This is one reason I recommend that you don't use automatic installers like Fantastico to install Zencart - you learn a lot by installing it yourself.

I also strongly recommend that you don't use the CPanel file manager to edit your files. Get an FTP client (like Filezilla - free) and use that to download the files, edit them in Notepad ++ (also free) and upload them back to the server.

OH MY! Thank you! I have already put about 16 hours in on this and could not even find the admin area. Dork!

I even purchased the zen ebook.

OK I see what you mean about installing zen a different way that the way I have done so.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU

Kelin,

There is very important information in Tutorials/FAQ link below.

You also need to secure your site (rename the admin folder and set permissions).
