Guest Posted December 4, 2002 Posted December 4, 2002 Hello everyone! My name is David and I need some help. I am new to all of this (PHP) language and all. I wanted to know how I can edit/change the text in the shipping.php and the others? Any advice is greatly appreciated. -David :)

raym Posted December 4, 2002 Posted December 4, 2002 This is the clearest explanation I've found (earlier today) thanks to PC eltr8 Ken Who posted this Any changes to the body text, titles, anything, on any page is always found in the languages file. So if the main page (home in your inference) is /catalog/default.php then go to /catalog/includes/languages/english/default.php for the text. Similarly if you wanted to change something in /catalog/checkout_process.php then go to /catalog/includes/languages/english/checkout_process.php. I found that the format is the same always. Even if you are changing things in modules - say you want to change text to /catalog/includes/modules/shipping/flat.php - then go to /catalog/includes/languages/english/modules/shipping/flat.php. There is a system! Oh and of course I am directing you to the English directory coz I'm assuming that you have an English speaking site - if not its the same just use the appropriate directory instead of English. Made me understand thing a whole lot better :D
burt Posted December 4, 2002 Posted December 4, 2002 Best way in my opinion is to CHMOD your language files 777 and then Admin > Tools > Define Languages Easy, and no FTP login needed...
