troubleshootter6319 Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 I 'm new to OSCOMMERCE. I have started our store and listed all our products, but i am having trouble with removing the demstration store front, and replacing it with our own. I would be happy just to remove the demo front . any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 it explains on the front page what file needs to be edited, the includes/language/english/index.php search, the knowledge base and reading will get you through how to change things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccoder Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 I found that using the Admin tool to change this file created a T_STRING error - what ever that is! Worked fine if I altered the file on my computer and then uploaded it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♥Vger Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 Yes, the advice on the default homepage is flawed. The osCommerce File Manager uses a php command called stripslashes, and it does just that - both essential and non-essential backslashes are stripped from files as soon as you hit the save button. Download the file to be edited, take a backup (just in case), edit the file in a plain text editor like Notepad, upload again, and if there's a problem restore from the backup you made. Escape all apostrophies in text with a preceeding backslash e.g. Let's = wrong Let\'s = right Vger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
