networkdad Posted May 8, 2003 Share Posted May 8, 2003 #1 - OSC Documentation - Read it, learn it, love it, use it: http://wiki.oscommerce.com #2 - Securing up your installation using .htaccess (if your server uses it) - http://javascriptkit.com/howto/htaccess3.shtml #3 - Default.php is the main page. To edit any pages text, you'll want to check out: /catalog/includes/languages/english.php /catalog/includes/languages/<<Language>>/*.* Read more about it in the wiki guide #4 - Headers, footers, left/right columns are located in /catalog/includes #5 - See #1 again. Good luck, welcome to osc ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have a hosting control panel, such as cpanel, ensim, plesk, you may be able to lock the directorie(s) from there, and not even worry about .htaccess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLowN Posted May 8, 2003 Author Share Posted May 8, 2003 hum i might have to try installing hosting control panel, such as cpanel, ensim, plesk cause windows dont let me create the .htpasswd files, or any files that start with a . in the front :-/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sortii Posted May 11, 2003 Share Posted May 11, 2003 If putting security on your Admin Screen is something you need to ASK how to do. DO NOT SETUP a WEB storefront, you will be sorry if you do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
