Since you are using a commercial template it could have been done in several ways. The proper way would be to have the language definition in the /includes/languages/english/specials.php file. Alternatively, it may have been hard coded into the /includes/header.php file. That file would also contain the link to the specials page.

According to your last image, you already changed the echo statement to BOX_HEADING_ABOUT now you have to define the language in the /includes/languages/english.php or actually create an about.php to place into the language directory.

How did you create the language text ? Did you actually create an about.php file and place it in the /includes/languages/english/ directory ? If you have, there shouldn't be any limitations to the text. However, you will have to escape any ' contained in that text. Words such as can't, won't and others like that would have to be entered as can\'t and won\'t or PHP will think you are beginning a command.

 

As for SEO, you will have to be more specific.

In /public_html/includes/languages english.php

 

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

define('BOX_HEADING_SPECIALS', 'About');

 

When I try to change text "Specials" to "About" got error either i have created about.php page separately by copying the privacy page.

 

In /public_html/includes header.php

 

tep_href_link('specials.php')?>'"><a><?php echo BOX_HEADING_SPECIALS?></a></td>

<td class="menu_separator"><?php echo tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES.'menu_separator.gif')?></td>

 

Changing Specials to about gives error too.

 

Overall i am getting problem in linking mine new generated about.php page to about us button.

 

Please advise

Change this line:

 

<td <?php echo $item_menu_03;?> nowrap="nowrap" onclick="document.location='<?php echo tep_href_link('specials.php')?>'"><a><?php echo BOX_HEADING_SPECIALS?></a></td>

 

to this:

 

<td <?php echo $item_menu_03;?> nowrap="nowrap" onclick="document.location='<?php echo tep_href_link('about.php')?>'"><a><?php echo BOX_HEADING_ABOUT?></a></td>

 

Add this line to the /includes/filesnames.php file:

 

define('FILENAME_ABOUT', 'about.php');

 

Then, COPY the /includes/languages/english/specials.php file and change that file name to about.php

 

The new about.php file will contain something like this:

 

<?php

/*

$Id$

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

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

 

define('TEXT_INFORMATION', 'Put information about your store here.');

?>

Dear Chris,

I tried a lot but again got stuck, how to get rid off top nav bar text "BOX_HEADING_ABOUT".

Please review the image attached and be brief in explanation.

If you have text like that in capitals it generally means that you are missing a define in a language file. Try adding

 

define('BOX_HEADING_ABOUT', 'About Us');

 

to the bottom of your includes.languages/english.php file

Thanks steve, its solved but i need to get www.domain.com/about.php when click to about us page, at present it shows www.domain.com/specials.php ?

[♥14steve14]

You need to find which file contains the link text and change

 

specials.php

 

to

 

whatever you called your about us file. php

 

and make sure you have defined the new file in your includes/filenames.php
