/help/conditions.tpl

Took me a while to figure it out too, I ended up adding a language addition so my client could change it.

Seems to be an oversight by x-cart team that's been in the system for ages, even 3.4.2 still has that problem. Not sure why they simply haven't added an new language variable in there.

Sometimes you get the feeling they have too many developers working on small bits of x-cart all the time so no one is looking after smaller issues like this one.

Personally if I didn't know PHP/mysql etc I wouldn't use x-cart, it's a large complex system and doesn't always make sense about how it goes about some things.

That did it. Not as easy as one would expect though.

This is so true.

I followed the helpful instructions in this thread up and down, and still can't get the content for my terms and conditions to show up.

Does something also need to be edited in the /help.tpl file?

1. Followed rkaydz's notes to a "T"
2. performed boomer's suggested "cleanup.php"
3. deleted browser cache
4. open/closed browser

Is there something I am missing?

Thanks.

edit languages, go to bottom, add :

txt_terms

then, in the next box type:

Terms and Conditions

Then take your html or text (in case of HTML, put it in a table and copy ONLY the table data from <table width=> to the final </table> tag) and paste it into the 3rd box....now click on apply changes.

Go to Edit Templates, and go to HELP>conditions.tpl, and change:

{capture name=dialog}
{*place terms and conditions here*}

to

{capture name=dialog}
{$lng.txt_terms}

you will find that this definitely works.
