To completly get rid of 'Let's See What We Have Here?' and the Icon on the Home page.

First backup your *catalog*/index.php and *catalog*/includes/languages/english/index.php files because you will need to edit them.

 

In *catalog*/index.php

 

Do a search for the three occurances of:

php echo tep_image.

 

The code will look something like this:

 

<td class="pageHeading" align="right"><?php echo tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . $category['categories_image'], $category['categories_name'], HEADING_IMAGE_WIDTH, HEADING_IMAGE_HEIGHT); ?></td>

 

Then comment out the icon like this:

 

<!-- <td class="pageHeading" align="right"><?php echo tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . $category['categories_image'], $category['categories_name'], HEADING_IMAGE_WIDTH, HEADING_IMAGE_HEIGHT); ?></td> -->

 

The first occurance of php echo tep_image will be the Home page icon, the next two will be the parent category level, then the child category level icons.

 

Now edit your *catalog*/includes/languages/english/index.php file

 

Do a search for:

define('HEADING_TITLE', 'Let\'s See What We Have Here');

and

define('HEADING_TITLE', 'What\'s New Here?');

 

If you don't want anything to show up, then make them both look like this:

define('HEADING_TITLE', '');

 

Otherwise you can customize the title youself with your own text.

Please remember to use \' for apostrophies as in Let\'s otherwise you will end up with a page error.
