GrahamMills Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 I have just started to create my first shop. Prestashop has been loaded on my server and seems to be working I have even been through the Product section and added some products. Not played with the categories yet but I think that I understand them. Have replaced the default logo OK However I just can not see how to change the basic information on the home page and presumably subsequent pages:- Phone number Menu Sale statements The top bar with Sale statement Store information (address etc. etc I am sure that I have missed something really simple but it is doing my head in! It is not helped by the "default-bootstrap" theme that has loaded is totally different from the one in the "guides" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulito Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 Good morning Well, lots of things to learn, it's best to take one step at a time http://screencast.com/t/5k1XKmqM8Lv http://screencast.com/t/RT3ZSMNMlt Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamMills Posted April 5, 2014 Author Share Posted April 5, 2014 That's really helpful Paul. I didn't realise that you configured the modules there, I just assumed add/remove. Thanks Should be able to play now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrahamMills Posted April 5, 2014 Author Share Posted April 5, 2014 Well I am quite a bit forward and here is what I have so far http://www.flyinglizardmodels.co.uk/prestashop/ (it's only a test site) but have 3 further questions:- How do I modify/delete the 2 "OFF" images just under the menus How do I modify/delete the images below the products How do I change the words by the phone number to remove "toll free" I have been through all the Front Office Module options that seem appropriate and I am lost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vekia Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 1) How do I modify/delete the 2 "OFF" images just under the menusguide: remove homepage adds 2) How do I modify/delete the images below the productsthe same as before (1) but remove other images (you will see there form to manage all pictures) 3) How do I change the words by the phone number to remove "toll free"localization > translations > installed modules translations search for this text and then just change it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamMills Posted April 5, 2014 Author Share Posted April 5, 2014 Thanks. The first two worked fine but when I did the third one it did not find the text. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walidon Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 3) How do I change the words by the phone number to remove "toll free" you may not find that in the translation in the BO! so you may need to modify a file.4 can you tell which exact version of PS are u using?

vekia Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 i just want to add something, to avoid confusion, while you're on localization > translations select: 1) installed modules translations 2) select your theme from second dropdown 3) click on flag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamMills Posted April 5, 2014 Author Share Posted April 5, 2014 Reply Unfortunately I am getting Warning! Your PHP configuration limits the maximum number of fields allowed in a form1000 for max_input_vars.Please ask your hosting provider to increase this limit to 2299 at least, or you will have to edit the translation files. at the moment, I need to resolve that first.

Paulito Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 Hello again This is a common problem, ask your host to increase the limit. Their is also a great tutorial that may help, but: Ask your host first Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamMills Posted April 5, 2014 Author Share Posted April 5, 2014 Thanks everybody. I got the limit raised and then made the change. That is fine for now. I think that I have an idea where to look for things that I want to change. I may be back if I get stuck again. I do find it a bit confusing all the different unconnected locations that you need to access, I guess after the first couple of years it will seem obvious.

GrahamMills Posted April 6, 2014 Author Share Posted April 6, 2014 Well after some considerable changing of 'parameters' I am finally getting it looking appropriately, see http://www.flyinglizardmodels.co.uk/prestashop/ However, you guessed, there are still some things that I can not find: Where is the text held that appears when one clicks on 'Terms and Conditions of use" and "About Us" in the Information block at the bottom of the page? I thought that it would be in the "User Information Block" module but you do not seem to be able to configure that. I managed to remove 'toll free' from the telephone reference at the top of the screen via Localisations - Translations but can not find the 'toll free' text that appears in the Store Information block at the bottom of the page Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulito Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 Hello again Sorry, a bit confused, what do you want to change in Terms & Conditions and About Us. If it just the text on the relevant pages then you just need to click on the edit icon and use the wysiwyg editor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamMills Posted April 6, 2014 Author Share Posted April 6, 2014 (edited) Hi, yes I want to change the text that appears on those pages. I may be being completely stupid but I can not find where I can edit that. Edited April 6, 2014 by GrahamMills (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulito Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 Hello again How about going to: Back office > Preferences > CMS > click on the Relevant pencil icon (on the right )http://screencast.com/t/5yJyWVV8 Paul 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamMills Posted April 6, 2014 Author Share Posted April 6, 2014 Yep that fixes the Terms & Conditions and About Us issue. Any thoughts on I managed to remove 'toll free' from the telephone reference at the top of the screen via Localisations - Translations but can not find the 'toll free' text that appears in the Store Information block at the bottom of the page Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulito Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 Hello Again You need to go to: Back office > Localisation > Translation > Installed module translations > Scroll down to: Module: blockcontactinfos http://screencast.com/t/xk1Z2vh4IA40 Click on it and you will see: http://screencast.com/t/VCfQeGQ3Q Change the text: http://screencast.com/t/9cIQpBCfj And you will see: http://screencast.com/t/jnSuTuEVWF4M Paul 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamMills Posted April 6, 2014 Author Share Posted April 6, 2014 Thanks. That has cracked it. What I had missed was that some of those blocks do not show the expressions within them and you have to click on the 'expressions' line to open (or close) them up. So a text search when closed did not find anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tasuega Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 All this info was extremely helpful as I was having the same problems as GrahamMills. I do have one question though: When a customer is ready to checkout, the system forces them to register. How can I add a 'guest' option. Also, the system requires the customer to add their date of birth, how do I disable this requirement? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamMills Posted April 6, 2014 Author Share Posted April 6, 2014 In the BackOffice under Preferences - Orders is the option 'Enable guest checkout' which is set to 'No' initially. I am afraid that I can not find where the customer's DOB is 'parameterised'. I suspect it is one of the default enabled Modules but I can not find it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tasuega Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Thank you! I found the 'guest' checkout option. Now all I have to do is figure out how do disable DOB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
