On the left column I have an info box called information. I have changed the conditions page but I can not find out where to edit the text ?Conditions of Use? on the information box it self.

 

I am also planning on adding another link/ page on the information info box called questions and answers but not sure where to start. Any information would help.

 

Thank you.

I found this in another topic by doing a search "conditions use"::::

 

FIRST BACK UP FILES

 

Step 1:

 

Copy an existing page, say, /catalog/conditions.php. Save it with your new file name, say links.php

 

In your new links.php file, look for:

 

 

CODE

$Id: conditions.php,v 1.22 2003/06/05 23:26:22 hpdl Exp $

 

 

And change to:

 

CODE

$Id: links.php,v 1.22 2003/06/05 23:26:22 hpdl Exp $

 

 

Look for:

 

 

require(DIR_WS_LANGUAGES . $language . '/' . FILENAME_CONDITIONS);

 

$breadcrumb->add(NAVBAR_TITLE, tep_href_link(FILENAME_CONDITIONS));

?>

 

 

And change to:

 

 

require(DIR_WS_LANGUAGES . $language . '/' . FILENAME_LINKS);

 

$breadcrumb->add(NAVBAR_TITLE, tep_href_link(FILENAME_LINKS));

?>

 

And now save the file

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Step 2:

 

Now copy an existing language page, say, /catalog/includes/languages/english/conditions.php. Save it with your new file name, say links.php.

 

In your new links.php file, look for:

 

CODE

$Id: conditions.php,v 1.4 2002/11/19 01:48:08 dgw_ Exp $

 

 

And change to:

 

CODE

$Id: links.php,v 1.4 2002/11/19 01:48:08 dgw_ Exp $

 

Look for:

 

CODE

define('NAVBAR_TITLE', 'Conditions of Use');

define('HEADING_TITLE', 'Conditions of Use');

 

And change to:

 

CODE

define('NAVBAR_TITLE', 'links');

define('HEADING_TITLE', 'links');

 

And now save the file

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Step 3:

 

Now, open /catalog/includes/filenames. Look for:

 

CODE

define('FILENAME_CONDITIONS', 'conditions.php');

 

 

Underneath it, add:

 

CODE

define('FILENAME_LINKS', 'links.php');

 

And now save the file

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Step 4:

 

Add a link to your site on whatever page/box you want it in. If adding it to the 'Information' box, for example, go to /catalog/includes/boxes/information.php. Look for:

 

 

'<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_CONDITIONS) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_CONDITIONS . '</a><br>' .

 

 

Right underneath that, add:

 

 

'<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_LINKS) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_LINKS . '</a><br>' .

 

 

 

 

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Step 5:

 

Then open up, /catalog/includes/languages/english.php. Look for:

 

CODE

// information box text in includes/boxes/information.php

define('BOX_HEADING_INFORMATION', 'Information');

define('BOX_INFORMATION_PRIVACY', 'Privacy Notice');

define('BOX_INFORMATION_CONDITIONS', 'Conditions of Use');

define('BOX_INFORMATION_SHIPPING', 'Shipping & Returns');

define('BOX_INFORMATION_CONTACT', 'Contact Us');

 

 

Add your new define somewhere in there, like so:

 

CODE

// information box text in includes/boxes/information.php

define('BOX_HEADING_INFORMATION', 'Information');

define('BOX_INFORMATION_PRIVACY', 'Privacy Notice');

define('BOX_INFORMATION_CONDITIONS', 'Conditions of Use');

define('BOX_INFORMATION_LINKS', 'Links');

define('BOX_INFORMATION_SHIPPING', 'Shipping & Returns');

define('BOX_INFORMATION_CONTACT', 'Contact Us');

 

 

And now save the file

 

Upload the files to your server and, if I've written this up correctly, you should now have a new link and page on your site

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you wish to add a page/box to the right hand side then I suggest you open up /catalog/includes/boxes/information.php.and save the infromation file with a new name such as information_right.php

 

Then open up /catalog/includes/column_right.php

 

and add this code near the bottom

 

 

if (substr(basename($PHP_SELF), 0, 8) != 'checkout') {

include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'information_right.php');

 

 

And now save the file

What a great lesson; It took me a while and I made several mistakes ie.. spelling and locations of files, but I learned so much from your explanation. Great job laying it out for me. Thank you very much.

How do you change the actual text within the shipping or the conditions of use file?

 

Thanks, Tony

conditions.php in the english folder. The same place you edited the index.php for your first page. /catalog/includes/languages/english/

 

I like your site, how did you get the image to run accross the top of you site.?
