Colors are controlled in the stylesheet, there is a list in the knowledgebase of what each entry in the stylesheet controls.

 

If you read the text itself (look at #2) it tells you what file you need to edit to make changes the main page text. You need to make sure that you edit the files on your local computer and then ftp them back to your server. Do not use the online file manager in the admin.

thank you. i use filezilla for ftp and do my editing in notepad, but i'm lost what do you mean here? "...If you read the text itself (look at #2) it tells you what file you need to edit to make changes the main page text."

After you do the install you have a front page with text, #2 explains where to go to make changes and enter in your own. You need to follow the path to your index.php file in your /english directory.

 

Editing Page Texts

 

The text shown here can be modified in the following file, on each language basis:

 

[path to catalog]/includes/languages/english/index.php

 

That file can be edited manually, or via the Administration Tool with the Languages->English->Define or Tools->File Manager modules.

 

The text is set in the following manner:

 

define('TEXT_MAIN', 'This is a default setup of the osCommerce project...');

 

The text highlighted in green may be modified - it is important to keep the define() of the TEXT_MAIN keyword. To remove the text for TEXT_MAIN completely, the following example is used where only two single quote characters exist:

 

define('TEXT_MAIN', '');
