Banner/Images On Home Page Unclear

[AngelLoving]

Hey there,

Ive been looking throught the forums for the past 2 days on how to add an image to my home page.

Ive managed to get together the code:

 

<!--

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

-->

<td align="center"><?php echo '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT) . '">' . tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'FreeDelivBanner.png', 'Free Delivery On All Products!') . '</a>'; ?></td>

 

But i just cant understand what file the code goes into and where. Ive tried in the header.php, index.php but never can see where about to put it. In the index.php it doesnt show at all.

 

Can someone please explain what file and around what line I would need to add this code too to have an image showing just under the 'Welcome Guest...' sign please?

 

Any help is appreciated. I know theres guides on how to do this, but it doesnt specify where in the file to place the code.

 

Thankyou.

Andy.

Search for where Welcome guest is used.

 

/includes/languages/english.php.

 

Part of TEXT_GREETING_GUEST.

 

Search for where that is used.

 

/includes/function/general.php in tep_customer_greeting.

 

tep_customer_greeting is used in index.php

 

<td class="main"><?php echo tep_customer_greeting(); ?></td>

 

There you go.

Thanks for your reply Geoffrey!

 

Ive been reading and going over what you said for 2 hours and still dont get it :( Is there a way to explain it in a dumber way? :P

[AngelLoving]

Worked it out now with your help, cheers! :D

Yeah, that was a bit unfriendly.

 

It is the steps you need to do to determine where the code should go with the answer to each step. Then a really unhelpful bit to help you get onto the next step in the "trail".

 

Anyway well done for getting through it.

Hehe thanks, Its problems like that that really help you learn a big chunk of how the coding works, so its a good experience :)
