Making changes to static pages

[ClarkHowell]

Hi all - I had a web designer create an OSCommerce site for a client of mine, and I then took over as "webmaster." However, I'm trying to make changes on the Content Us page...

 

http://www.shoresidedocks.com/contact_us.php

 

but have not figured out "how" to accomplish this. All I want to do is change the companies address on the site, as they have moved.   And the original designer is not available anymore.

Have you found the file named contact_us.php? Look inside it in an editor such as Notepad++ or ViM. You will very likely find the business address that you want to change. It would be most unusual to put it in a database or encrypt it. Since this is such a minor change to the page, you should be able to do this right on the server (avoid download/edit/upload cycle) using your host's control panel > file manager > editor.

As Phil stated above, you should either use an ftp program or the websites cpanel to properly access the files. You need to go into the catalog folder side and follow the folder path to get to the contact_us.php file which has that info. (/includes/languages/english)  includes -> languages -> english->  contact_us.php. Download a copy of current file. Then make the changes and save a copy of that, then upload it over old file and done!
