Direct external link for Contact us and about us - New 1.5.6

Hi,

I have searched, and there is some suggestion back in 2010 or so that you can change the php file in catalog\view\theme\default\template\information and open contact.php for example.

But in version 1.5.6 this file is not located there - just a tpl file.

Anyway - we have our own contact and about us pages associated with the whole web site and would like the contact/about us links in the footer to direct to our standard web site pages.

Any quick answers on doing this?

Also - I would most likely remove these links from the footer anyhow - but just concerned that if I do, I will still need to redirect any other call to contact us as well!

Sorry one thing I would like to add – I know I can redirect the contact page by replacing the whole contact.tpl With a simple redirect:

<?php
header("Location: ../placetogo.htm");
exit;
?>

But this isn’t too elegant as it in effect calls the page which then re-directs – unnecessary really

Also it’s no good for the about us (information.tpl) As this then redirects for all calls to information (about, terms & conditions etc..)
