Add content between logo and "new products for .."

Recommended Posts

I have recently launched an oscommerce sight and would like to change the layout a bit. I would like to insert some content (perhaps "about us") between my logo and the "New Products" box, but keep the left and right columns the same. I am VERY new to this so please keep your suggestions as simple as possible. I know a little html but php is a mystery to me. Assume I know nothing. Also, on my PC the site looks too wide, but my hoster assures me it's a resolution problem. Could someone please check out the site and see if the width is right? I have only just gotten the site, so any suggestions on improvement will be greatly appreciated. My Webpage Thanks for any help.

:huh:

You can define some text in catalog/includes/language/english/index.php.

 

Unless you've deleted it ('TEXT_MAIN', 'Some Text'); is the place to add the text you're looking for.

If I'm giving advice, it is based on what path I would take to fix your problem. My path may be wrong.

I found www/includes/languages/english.php. Is this what you're talking about?

There should be a folder called english in the language folder and a file in english called index.php.

 

You can copy this folder onto your desktop from your server, then you can open it with a text editor, like Notepad.

 

There will probably be a line of code that says ('TEXT_MAIN', 'Some Text');

 

This is where you want to put your text, ie:('TEXT_MAIN', 'Your New Text'); and save the file.

 

After the file is saved, copy and paste it back to the server. It will replace your old file.

 

There is another index.php folder on your root folder. Don't mix this up with the other index.php file that you are working in.

If I'm giving advice, it is based on what path I would take to fix your problem. My path may be wrong.
