Hello to you

 

take your catalog / privacy.php download it and rename it aboutus.php

do the same for catalog / includes / languages / english / privacy.php

ensure that the originals are still in place.

 

upload to your server

 

open to edit

 

catalog / includes / filesnames.php

before the final ?> add

 

define('FILENAME_ABOUTUS', 'aboutus.php');

 

if you call you file about_us.php then use

 

define('FILENAME_ABOUT_US', 'about_us.php');

 

save and close filenames.php

 

open catalog / includes / languages / english.php

 

find

 

/ /information box text in includes/boxes/information.php

at about line 122

 

add the lines below that

 

define('BOX_INFORMATION_ABOUTUS', 'About us');

again if you use about_us.php then use

define('BOX_INFORMATION_ABOUT_US', 'About us');

 

 

save and close

 

open to edit

 

catalog / includes / boxes / information .php

 

add the following to any EXCEPT the last one

 

'<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_ABOUTUS) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_ABOUTUS . '</a><br>' .

 

again substitute the ABOUTUS for ABOUT_US if relevant

 

save the file.

 

 

Open to edit

catalog / includes / languages / english / aboutus.php

 

change

 

define('NAVBAR_TITLE', 'Privacy Notice');

define('HEADING_TITLE', 'Privacy Notice');

 

to

 

define('NAVBAR_TITLE', 'About us');

define('HEADING_TITLE', 'About us');

 

Add you required info by replacing

 

define('TEXT_INFORMATION', 'Put here your Privacy Notice information.');

 

with you own text

 

add it between the ' and ' save the file, job done
