Changing Text on the first page

[SteveDB]

Hi

 

I am trying to change the text on the first page to say welcome to our shop and to say someting about us. Where do I do this please.

It tells you on that page how to do this. However, you edit the text in:

 

catalog/includes/languages/english/index.php

 

Open that file in your text editor and edit the text between the two single quotes ' '

 

This is what you are looking for:

 

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

 

If your own text includes apostrophes, as in the word Can't or Won't, you need to escape the apostrophe with a backslash or you will get an error - Can\'t or Won\'t.
