hiya folks i recently purchased x-cart and i am just trying to get my head round all the options in the admin section.. Firstly i wanted to change the welcome message with my own message.. i clicked on webmaster mode and then opened up the customer/main/welcome.tpl file this gave me this code,
{*
$Id: welcome.tpl,v 1.171.2.42 2010/05/07 13:42:05 aim Exp $
vim: set ts=2 sw=2 sts=2 et:
*}
{include file="customer/news.tpl" }
{if $display_greet_visitor_name}
<h1>{$lng.lbl_welcome_back|substitute:"name":$disp lay_greet_visitor_name} </h1>
{elseif $lng.lbl_site_title}
<h1>{$lng.lbl_welcome_to|substitute:"company":$lng .lbl_site_title}</h1>
{else}
<h1>{$lng.lbl_welcome_to|substitute:"company":$con fig.Company.company_name}</h1>
{/if}
{$lng.txt_welcome}<br />
<div class="clearing"></div>
{if $active_modules.Bestsellers && $config.Bestsellers.bestsellers_menu ne "Y"}
{include file="modules/Bestsellers/bestsellers.tpl"}<br />
{/if}
{include file="customer/main/featured.tpl"}
how do i get to change the message when the above doesn't give me any clues as to what to do
..
i have enabled the editor but i still dont know what to do.. can anyone advise please on whats wrong or tell me what im doing wrong

*update*
i looked around on the x-cart website and it seems i needed to compile the template..
