Almirena Posted April 18, 2004 Posted April 18, 2004 On the checkout page, when customers choose either credit card or cheque/money order payments, I have some things I want to change. Firstly - "Credit Card via Verisign" - I'd like to edit this so that I can add "MasterCard/Visa/Bankcard ONLY". Secondly - the American spelling of cheque as "check"... It's a small yet strange thing that I want to change. Thirdly - I believe I'm correct in saying that, since I cannot accept Amex, I don't need customers putting in the CVN? (If this is a stupid question, mea culpa - I'm new to all this.) My question is: where on earth is/are the file(s) in which I can edit these? I've checked in all the obvious places, and I can't see any way of changing those in admin.
rseigel Posted April 18, 2004 Posted April 18, 2004 All text is defined in the language files. Look there. It's fairly obvious which files you need to change since the names of them correspond to the names of the main php files.
Almirena Posted April 18, 2004 Author Posted April 18, 2004 Unless the text is invisible, it's not in the obvious files, which I had already checked through. For instance, it's not in checkout_payment.php, which was my first thought.
Guest Posted April 18, 2004 Posted April 18, 2004 in languages/english/modules/payment is where you need to go, since it is a payment module. it is simple to figure out, based upon what it is you are trying to do.
Almirena Posted April 18, 2004 Author Posted April 18, 2004 Thanks - I was looking in /includes/modules/payment rather than in /includes/languages/english/modules/payment.
Almirena Posted April 18, 2004 Author Posted April 18, 2004 I'd still like to get rid of the Card Validation Number field, since it just confuses people using Visa, MasterCard and Bankcard. I've been wading through the search results without having found something that specifically deals with that. Perhaps it's there under different search terms... Anyway, I hope someone can post a solution here.
Almirena Posted April 18, 2004 Author Posted April 18, 2004 After doing a google search on CVV, I find that it's not peculiar only to Amex. My confusion came from American Express having a 4-digit CVV, while other cards seem to use 3 digits. Oh well... I did say I was new to e-commerce... <rueful grin>
rseigel Posted April 18, 2004 Posted April 18, 2004 It's not a wise move to remove the CVV field. That protects you and the cardholder.
Almirena Posted April 18, 2004 Author Posted April 18, 2004 Yes - now I realise that after doing a bit of checking. Thanks. <smile> I've also been doing a search here for getting the <br> tag to work as html rather than appear in the text. This thread mentions the difficulties... So far, the best solution might be just to remove all the formatting commands in those strings...
