Where? i really have no idea how to find and delete this message.. Its in the way lol. i've looked in all the modules and cannot find it.. www.rocket-traffic.com - "welcome to rocket-traffic" i want removed please! ty
I haven't played with 1.5, much yet - but I do know a couple quick workarounds:
1. Edit the CSS file for your template and add: if it's still showing up, try:
2. Edit the "catalog/language/english/common/home.php" file and delete the value for $_['heading_title'] so it looks like this:
I'd definitely try the 1st method - as that won't be overwritten upon update (as long as you're not using the default template).
1. Edit the CSS file for your template and add:
Code: Select all
div.welcome {display:none;}Code: Select all
div.welcome {display:none !important;}Code: Select all
$_['heading_title'] = '';home.php is not in the location you said it was mate, and i've found the welcome.tpl and this is the code inside ---
<div class="welcome"><?php echo $heading_title; ?></div>
<?php echo $message; ?>
Can i edit this to get rid of it? Thanks.
<div class="welcome"><?php echo $heading_title; ?></div>
<?php echo $message; ?>

You certainly can, although I would still recommend the 1st method (CSS) - but they'll both work.
Replace this:
..with this:
It's just a PHP comment, so it's non-destructive (in case you ever want it back). You can move the outer <?php /*?>'s to inside the <div> tag if you want to put something else in it's place.
Replace this:
Code: Select all
<div class="welcome"><?php echo $heading_title; ?></div>
<?php echo $message; ?>Code: Select all
<?php /*?><div class="welcome"><?php echo $heading_title; ?></div><?php */?>
<?php echo $message; ?>
Hi I'm a newbie too and I'm having the very same problem. If I understand correctly, Screamkitty's solution will hide the 'welcome to…" message which seems to be automatically generated by the welcome module.
I want to change this heading - which I understand is a <h1> header to a title including key words to up my ranking i the search engines.
How do I change this text and still have it visible
Please help it's driving me mad - Thanks Vicky

OMG I found it - It is on other posts, but was hard to find so for benefit of other newbie's here's how i did it. It meant modifiying core code, so when I upgrade I'll have to redo it - I can't see any other way tho - if this is inadvisable maybe someone cleverer than me can add better advice
public_html/catalog/language/english/module/welcome.php
$_['heading_title'] = 'Welcome to %s';
I changed to
$_['heading_title'] = 'MY MESSAGE';
I now have a h1 header on my home page with loads of key words included - will post whether this improves my SEO
Lovin' Opencart so much

Ok, further to last post, My developer friend says there is a hidden H1 tag on home page which is my store name,
--></script><h1 style="display: none;">MY STORE</h1>
he says 'MY MESSAGE' (which I was convinced was an H1 tag because when I adjusted H1 in CSS file it updated) Is apparently not H1 - ?
<div id="content"><div class="welcome">MY MESSAGE</div>
<p>
Is this because of the hidden H1 tag?
If so do I need to delete it?
if so, how?
Please can someone explain this

Thanks to this post I was able to remove the welcome message from www.bmsupplies.co.uk. I had tried to edit the welcome message with the the header "Welcome to blah blah" but gave up and opted to just stick to the core description.
I tend to keep the H1 as it is and just run H2, H3 tags in this module, if you want to enhance the H1 tag on "MYSTORE" put your keywords in the admin panel system/settings/general & system/settings/Store for example ours is "B&M Supplies -Mobility, Nursing & Care Home Supplier North West"
Love this forum!!
