How do I change what it says under information->Shipping & Returns

 

On a stock oscommerce site, Information is found at the bottom left of the screen. You can also find the Privacy Notice, Conditions of Use, Contact Us. I want to know how to edit them all (the screen that appears)

 

The screen says: Put here your Shipping & Returns information.

 

it is found at:

 

http://www.mywebsite.ca/oscommerce/catalog/shipping.php

 

I tried to edit that, but never found the words :Put here your Shipping & Returns information.

 

So, this must NOT be the area that you edit that, right?

 

What do I edit to change it?

 

Thanks,

Hi Zan,

 

The actual text file depends on the current language the customer is using. If you are using English, the text will be in the catalog/includes/languages/english/shipping.php file. The same goes for other languages.

Is there a way to have the ability to modify these pages

HomePage

Shipping & Returns

Privacy Policy

Conditions of Use

Contact Us

 

from the left side menu?

 

Is there a modification to the code where those pages can be edited from the menu instead having to do it manually?

 

I have another oscommerce website that has the exact same interface except for that difference.. click on the name of the page you want to edit.. it brings up a box similiar to this box we use here for REPLY, SAVE it and it's updated for you on your site.

 

I tried doing a search but didn't see anything that may help me. If I've missed it please accept my apology and if you could point me in the right direction, I'd be ever grateful!

 

Thanks!

Hi,

 

the best way for me is go to your store admin and click your tools. There you can find your Define Languages to edit.

I just clicked on TOOLS and the menu items are:

 

Database Backup

Banner Manager

Cache Control

Define Languages

File Manager

Send Email

Newsletter Manager

Server Info

Who's Online

 

I then clicked on all the options and received errors on some of them:

 

Most I will search for answers before I post.. but the one I'm not sure of is when I click on FILE MANAGER. It's error message is:

 

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /home/ourcreat/public_html/cybermall/1201-mandersonsales/6057/admin/file_manager.php on line 183

 

 

 

I'm assuming this is what I should be clicking on to be able to edit the language files?

 

(Again.. point me in the right direction if needed!) <_<

TYVM!

OH WAIT.. I just did some more clicking and under LOCALIZATION, there's "LANGUAGES" I highlighted ENGLISH and clicked on DETAILS. THere is the list of ALL the files to be modified.

 

WHen you click on the file (shipping.php for example) it'll pop up into an edit window, but it's PHP edit, not HTML or WYSIWY edit.. but it's better than having to search for all the files to modify.

 

Since I'm not a PHP whiz, I'm not sure how to get the fonts and colors and sizes etc like I do with HTML, but I'll work it.. unless someone has some wise tips for me!

 

Thanks again!

(sorry.. wasn't able to edit original message!)
