Help Wanted

[Guest]

Hi,

I have a oscommerce template site that was set up for me by someone who seems to have lost total interest and says they are too busy to do anything further.

 

Im not sure if i need a program on my computer to change things or if they can be changed on the admin page, Im not happy with the colour and something has gone wrong with the privacy policy when you click on it , it comes up with syntax error.

 

There are a few things im wanting to change and add on but have no idea how.

 

Any body able to help?

If your in Lincolnshire that would be great but any honest person would be greatly appreciated

 

Thanks

Hi Rachel,

 

 

if you have filemanager in admin of your shop you can edit the file includes/languages/english/privacy.php and your looking to make sure that one of your defines is correctly set out ie define('SOMETHING_ELSE','Something else here');

 

 

By the way you shouldnt have an admin folder called admin or file manager as it is a security risk. You can also edit your file and upload it or edit via your control panel.

 

As for the colour that maybe editable in your stylesheet but it depends on whether its a graphic or not.

file_manager.php in the admin of your shop is a known security risk and should be removed asap. your host (people that host your website) should provide a file manager in your cpanel (your website control panel) you can alter your site files here if you wish although it is always best to do alterations on a backed up copy of your store (this way you have a known "clean" working copy of your store should anything go wrong).

 

Regarding your privacy file I suspect that you have a un-escaped ' within your define('TEXT_INFORMATION', 'Put your text here'); - eg you have something like " it's " which should be " it\'s " in other words every ' you have in your text must be written \' except for the 4 shown above in the define
