changing txt_welcome
 

What will changing txt_welcome do?
I was reading here http://www.websitecm.com/x-cart-tutorials/x-cart-seo/ to change the txt_welcome
right now it looks like default
should I change it to something more relevant for a search engine?

Re: changing txt_welcome
 

Of course you should change it to match your store. why would you want the default x-cart text on your home page?

Re: changing txt_welcome
 

It's not being displayed on our hompage

Re: changing txt_welcome
 

then it is irrelevant.

Re: changing txt_welcome

Hi,
This forum title contain the answer for your question.it is txt_welcome.
Just change the language variable in admin/languages.php

Re: changing txt_welcome
 

Or if you don't know where that file is:
go to Languages under Administration area
choose English (if your store is english)
change "select topic" to Labels
and type in "welcome" in the Apply Filter
press "go" button
scroll down until you see the label "txt_welcome"
and change it in the text box.

Hi i'm trying to change the txt welcome page as well and when i go to languages under the admin section i don't have the ability to change select topic. according to the usermanual for my version (latest/ 4.something, check my sig) i have to use the webmaster mode. however i can activate the webmaster mode and can change the text on the site however even after i click save and then exit the webmaster mode the text goes back to its default.

can someone help me please

Re: changing txt_welcome
 

I'm having the same issue is over and over again... (in 4.2 also)

Re: changing txt_welcome
 

try to refresh a couple of times before you exit webmaster mode.

Re: changing txt_welcome
 

I tried the refresh idea and still doesnt work

i have tried it in about 5 different browsers well 4 browsers and also tried it in ie 5 so that makes 5 hehe.

however in ie i get an error message which prevents the page from opening up the popup that allows you to change the text.

In all the other browsers i can open up the popup and click save however after clicking exit webmaster mode it goes back to the default setting.

I have tested in ie 5, ie 7, firefox 3, netscape 6, safari 3.2. i would try firefox 2 but i can't find it anywhere to download it.

is there a way of doing it manualy? i'm fairly up to speed on php and html, i can read it just not write it.

Did you apply this patch? There is an issue with 4.2 and saving templates from within x-cart. It may also affect what you are trying to do.
