steepedincode Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 Hi, I was wondering if someone could help me out a little. I'm new to osCommerce, and when I view my osCommerce site in the browser, at the very top of the page it says: Warning: I am able to write to the configuration file: /home/hetzel/public_html/shop/includes/configure.php. This is a potential security risk - please set the right user permissions on this file. What do I need to do to get this message to go away? Thanks Believe the permissions should be 666 or 644, not sure. You'll want to deny "execute" permissions on the file, I'm fairly certain. You can set the permissions with most FTP programs. Right-click the remote file (command click on Mac), choose the appropriate menu item (properties, permissions, get info, etc.) and reset the permissions. Hope this helps. ETA: if your hosting company offers a CPanel with a file manager, you can most likely use it to set permissions as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fashion2 Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 i cannot find the directroy " catalog/includes" so i am unable to edit all of these things. could someone tell me how to get to it? Hi, I am having the same problem. I know the store is in the root, but how do I get there? I'm totally frustrated. Granted, I'm a newbie to this, but was hoping it was easier.

This is a potential security risk - please set the right user permissions on this file. What do I need to do to get this message to go away? Thanks if you are running in localhost just find the configure.php at catalog/includes/configure.php then set the file into read only. if you are running in web hosting, try to access with your ftp aplication, or use the ftp that provided by your web hosting then set the configure file into 444. that is all.

I'm having the same issue. just made a change like below: define('DATE_FORMAT_SHORT', '%d/%m/%Y'); // this is used for strftime() define('DATE_FORMAT_LONG', '%A %d %B, %Y'); // this is used for strftime() define('DATE_FORMAT', 'd/m/Y'); // this is used for date() define('DATE_TIME_FORMAT', DATE_FORMAT_SHORT . ' %H:%M:%S'); //// // Return date in raw format // $date should be in format mm/dd/yyyy // raw date is in format YYYYMMDD, or DDMMYYYY function tep_date_raw($date, $reverse = false) { if ($reverse) { return substr($date, 0, 2) . substr($date, 3, 2) . substr($date, 6, 4); } else { return substr($date, 6, 4) . substr($date, 3, 2) . substr($date, 0, 2); } } and // text for date of birth example define('DOB_FORMAT_STRING', 'dd/mm/yyyy'); and define('ENTRY_DATE_OF_BIRTH_ERROR', 'Your Date of Birth must be in this format: DD/MM/YYYY (eg 21/05/1970)'); define('ENTRY_DATE_OF_BIRTH_TEXT', '* (eg. 21/05/1970)'); and do the same edit code on the admin side.ok Rocdy Beginner in php programming and still learning from this forums.

abe_rudder Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 Point 13: 13. … Change Top or the Catalog on the breadcrumb? Go to catalog/includes/English.php and find the following lines and make the changes as necessary CODE define('HEADER_TITLE_TOP', 'Top'); define('HEADER_TITLE_CATALOG', 'Catalog'); You missed out the languages folder - just for any new people that may not be able to find it, I thought I would point it out. catalog/includes/languages/English.php Great tutorial though, helped me out a lot.

gtilflm Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 How to change the "Welcome Guest! Would you like to log yourself in? Or would you prefer to create an account on the front page?" Ok. I finally figured it out. You can change it by searching for "define('TEXT_GREETING_GUEST" in catalog/includes/languages/english.php OR You can get rid of it by messing with... } else { $greeting_string = sprintf(TEXT_GREETING_GUEST, tep_href_link(FILENAME_LOGIN, '', 'SSL'), tep_href_link(FILENAME_CREATE_ACCOUNT, '', 'SSL')); } in catalog/includes/functions/general.php I haven't actually taken it out yet, but that's where you'd need to do it. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This comes up from time to time. You have to allow write permissions to the directory indicated. Change permissions either with chmod or with your FTP program. Believe permissions should be 644 or 666, perhaps someone can confirm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Setting permissions should be done through your webhost control panel. FTP works sometimes. The permission through FTP tend to be temporary at tmes. File permissions should be 644. Because some servers has tighten their security, you may want to try 444 or 400. If 644 does not remove the warning, try 444 or 400. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the shop files have not been altered and the template was written for the same version as the shop, you just upload the template files over the existing ones.

Guest Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Many thanks! I was looking for this. And it did the trick. It got rid of the clip art in the headers. But didn't seem to remove it for the shopping cart clip art (below header on right side). How do I get rid of it all? Thanks in advance for any help! This is what I have. Do I remove ALL of this? </tr> </table> <table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="1"> <tr class="headerNavigation"> <td class="headerNavigation"> <?php echo $breadcrumb->trail(' » '); ?></td> <td align="right" class="headerNavigation"><?php if (tep_session_is_registered('customer_id')) { ?><a href="<?php echo tep_href_link(FILENAME_LOGOFF, '', 'SSL'); ?>" class="headerNavigation"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_LOGOFF; ?></a> | <?php } ?><a href="<?php echo tep_href_link(FILENAME_ACCOUNT, '', 'SSL'); ?>" class="headerNavigation"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_MY_ACCOUNT; ?></a> | <a href="<?php echo tep_href_link(FILENAME_SHOPPING_CART); ?>" class="headerNavigation"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_CART_CONTENTS; ?></a> | <a href="<?php echo tep_href_link(FILENAME_CHECKOUT_SHIPPING, '', 'SSL'); ?>" class="headerNavigation"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_CHECKOUT; ?></a> </td> </tr> </table> <?php I have Header Tags SEO installed.

squart Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Hi, Since I'm hosting the store on a different server than the informational website the link from the top lefthand logo and the "top" link in the breadcrumb don't go where they're supposed to. I've already read through the questions in this thread and I see clearly how to change the text for the breadcrumb but is there any way for me to hard code the destination link for both of the aforementioned items? Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Hey people. I have found this thread very helpful as Im and about 2 days into making my first store and everything has gone like a breeze besides loading products I am close to a product I'd be happy with. I am interested in changing the default - new products for *** box into a specials box presented the same as the default box as new products wont be coming that often. Thankyou. ------------ Not 10secs after I posted this I figured this part out repeating one of the same attempts I did earlier - (I was wondering how to go about removing the requests counter in the footer as I have tried 2 different ways and it still seems to stay right where it is so any help would be greatly appreciated.)
