    \r\n

  1. Log into your ZenCart admin panel and go to Configuration -> Layout Settings<\/strong>:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\"ZenCart_How_to_remove_or_change_greeting_1\"<\/a>\r\n<\/li>\r\n

    To change the welcome greeting<\/strong>, perform the following steps:<\/p>\r\n

      \r\n

    1. Open index.php<\/i><\/strong> located in includes\/languages\/english\/themeXXX\/<\/i><\/strong> where XXX stands for your theme number with any code editor (DreamWeaver, Notepad++, Sublime, etc.) and locate the following code approximately on Line 21:<\/p>\r\n

      define('TEXT_GREETING_GUEST', 'Welcome <span class="greetUser">Guest!<\/span> Would you like to <a href="%s">log yourself in<\/a>?');\r\n  } else {\r\ndefine('TEXT_GREETING_GUEST', 'Welcome, please enjoy our online showcase.');\r\n}\r\ndefine('TEXT_GREETING_PERSONAL', 'Hello <span class="greetUser">%s<\/span>! Would you like to see our <a href="%s">newest additions<\/a>?');<\/pre>\r\n<\/li>\r\n
    2. Make the back up of this file first (that means make a copy of the file, so that you can revert the changes back in case something goes wrong).<\/li>\r\n
    3. Edit the text between the single quotes<\/strong><\/i> to your own and save<\/strong> the changes.<\/p>\r\n
      * Change the first define statement if you are using your ZenCart as a normal store.<\/p>\r\n
      e.g. define(‘TEXT_GREETING_GUEST’, ‘Welcome to our store!’);<\/p>\r\n
        Change the second define statement if you are using your ZenCart as a showcase.<\/p>\r\n
      e.g. define(‘TEXT_GREETING_GUEST’, ‘Welcome to our showcase.’);<\/p>\r\n
        Change the third define statement for either a normal store or showcase. <\/p>\r\n
      e.g. define(‘TEXT_GREETING_PERSONAL’, ‘Welcome back <span class="greetUser">%s<\/span>! Check what’s <a href="%s">new<\/a>!’);<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n
