What's New Here?

marsupial · July 27, 2006

Hi,

This might be a simple question but "What's New here?" appears on the default page and I can remove all text on the default page but where does this text come from? I have searched all files for that text and I can't see it anywhere.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

It's defined in english.php, which you can edit in the admin interface, or in /store/includes/languages/english.php. "What's New Here?" is rather lame... but what other alternatives will work for a program that has to be so general on a default install.

Thanks,

JB

Thanks Jason, once again I am embarrased as to why I didn't see it.

OK, really really trying not to look stupid here, but seem to be failing miserably :'(

I've looked through the english.php file several times tonight, and over the past week or so and I find no mention of "What's New Here?".

I do find the relevant code for the "What's New" box, but nothing for the heading itself...

Can someone please help me remain sane and point me to this string?

And now to really stick my neck on the line - here's my english.php file for any of you kind souls to double-check... :blush:

I think you're looking for the text in the wrong area. I believe you'll find it in the index.php.

Try includes/languages/english/index.php.

jhsands · August 14, 2006

Yes, under the heading:

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

August 16, 2006

Excellent!

Thank you both for your advice, I've been in and made the required change.

This is the posting of one happy chappy! :D

Thanks again!
