vicnic Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 I have tried and tried to find the index.php in the catalog/includes/language/english. I do have one, but it doesn't have anything like the Welcome Guest would you like to log in??????? When I open my index page, here is what it says: I know about the admin/includes/language and I know to make sure I am in the catalog/includes/language. I didn't install the oscommerce to the catalog, I put it on the Public html instead. I do have a includes/language/english/index.php but it says what I pasted below on this thread. Can anyone help. I don't understand why if what my index says what is below, why on my site it says, Welcome Gues would you like to log in? Thanks for all your help.

vicnic Posted January 27, 2011 Author Share Posted January 27, 2011 Dear Germ, Thank you so much. You gave me excellent advice, something that I was doing because I am too afraid to screw up a php file. I have and will backup any file first. AND MOST IMPORTANTLY....YOU GAVE ME THE CORRECT ROUTE TO FIND THE FILE I NEEDED. The forum was telling me to go to the following area: Change the Welcome Guest! Would you like to log yourself in? Or would you prefer to create an account on the front page? Go to catalog/includes/languages/English/index.php Find the following line and change it to what you want it to say As you can see by their map going to catalog/includes/languages/english/index.php is WRONG the correct map is as you suggested: catalog/includes/languages/english.php NOT index.php THAT'S A BIG DIFFERENCE. I just spent about 3 hours today looking for the index.php, following the wrong directions to locate it. THANKS A BUNCH!!!!!! Hope this thread helps other newbies...I can't believe someone else hasn't had this problem before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
