HOW do you edit the Privacy Page?!

This is driving me nuts.

 

 

I have OSC installed, the privacy page has stuff like this:

 

 

<td><table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2">

<tr>

<td class="main"><?php echo TEXT_INFORMATION; ?></td>

</tr>

</table></td>

 

 

and <?php echo HEADING_TITLE; ?>

 

 

This implies it gets these values from the database or from a configuration file, which implies I can edit it in the admin, but no.. WHERE to edit the privacy policy content is nowhere to be seen in the admin. How are we suppose to edit it? Delete these values and edit the php templates manually?

 

Incidentally i am HORRIFIED that a project of this size does not use proper templates and scatters bits of HTML across hundreds of PHP files.. its a disgrace :(

The text shown on your index, privacy, shipping etc pages, can be modified in the following file, on each language basis:

[path to catalog]/includes/languages/english/XXX.php

Where XXX = the name of your page. ie includes/languages/english/privacy.php

This is the beauty of PHP.

Well its free so if you don't like it, don't use it. Don't come on here asking us for help and then take a dig at os Commerce ....that's a disgrace. If you want the problem sorted why don't you make a contribution? or else go pay ????? for what you want.

The beauty of open source has time and time again proven that a community driven product can outperform any commercial software, sadly this is not the case with osC. It isn't terrible, but its not good either.

 

Knifeman, thanks for your help.
