A little editing in /includes/functions/general.php should sort it

 

// Return a customer greeting

function tep_customer_greeting() {

global $customer_id, $customer_first_name;

 

if (tep_session_is_registered('customer_first_name') && tep_session_is_registered('customer_id')) {

$greeting_string = sprintf(TEXT_GREETING_PERSONAL, tep_href_link(FILENAME_LOGOFF, '', 'SSL'),tep_output_string_protected($customer_first_name));

} else {

$greeting_string = sprintf(TEXT_GREETING_GUEST, tep_href_link(FILENAME_LOGIN, '', 'SSL'), tep_href_link(FILENAME_CREATE_ACCOUNT, '', 'SSL'));

}

 

return $greeting_string;

}

Hey I'm trying to do the same thing as the author of this post. I want to display it in my navigation bar. So it should say "Welcome to BestMacDiscounts. Customer name" or if not signed in "Welcome to BestMacDiscounts " . Using your code i'll be able to add a function to the General.php while but how do I call that in my breadcrumb. I know i can add this "$breadcrumb->add(NAVBAR_TITLE);" and instead of NAVBAR_TITLE would I add the function name or something else? Please advice. Also I hope the author doesn't mind me interrupting this post. Sorry if I'm

 

Thank you,
