Remove Error on main page

[kennonward]

How can I remove the basic text on the main page that comes from the initial install.

 

I went to the file it references on the main page and it was empty.

Error Messages

 

If there are any error or warning messages shown above, please correct them first before proceeding.

 

Error messages are displayed at the very top of the page with a complete background color.

 

Several checks are performed to ensure a healthy setup of your online store - these checks can be disabled by editing the appropriate parameters at the bottom of the includes/application_top.php file.

Editing Page Texts

 

The text shown here can be modified in the following file, on each language basis:

 

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

 

That file can be edited manually, or via the Administration Tool with the Languages->English->Define or Tools->File Manager modules.

 

The text is set in the following manner:

 

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

 

The text highlighted in green may be modified - it is important to keep the define() of the TEXT_MAIN keyword. To remove the text for TEXT_MAIN completely, the following example is used where only two single quote characters exist:

 

define('TEXT_MAIN', '');

 

Thanks

If you don't know how to get a file off the web site onto your pc, edit it and put it back, it would probably be best to get some one to show you as describing in words it is a long and tedious exercise.

And make sure you stay within the apostraphe's

 

define('TEXT_MAIN', ' Add Your Text Here');

Thank you, both for your input. It was just a brain burp on my part. the vi editor did not show the lines for TEXT_MAIN when I looked at it. I had to page down to see the full line.

 

Again Thanks and have a great year
