Some Questions

[wel-usa]

when looking at an ad, and looking at seller info, is there a way to make their website address an hyperlink?


when a user logs into his/her account and the 4 icons/gifs appear "modify your account" "browse your listings" "add a listing" "your favorites" i would like to change the "add a listing" to "place an ad" under the same icon/gif, how would i do this?


if a customer decides they dont want to place an ad at the payment option dropdown box, it was brought to my attention that there is no link back to the home page, i would like to add one to every page during the ad placing process.

and on the payment option page i would like to add a statement telling the customer what the billing name will be under on their credit card/bank statement.

sorry for so many questions, this software is great, reading the forums has already answered other questions i had.

How comfortable are you in editing HTML? All these changes require HTML editing of the core files.

If 'http://' is added as part of the URL, a link is generated. If not, the link is not generated. eg: http://www.68classifieds.com

/templates > default > user > userindex.tpl.php

/templates > default > layout.tpl.php

You could add this at the bottom of the page just beside '©'

<a href="/">Home</a><br />

and on the payment option page i would like to add a statement telling the customer what the billing name will be under on their credit card/bank statement.

/templates > default > checkout
/templates > default > memberships

Each of these directories contain the 'checkout' steps. You could edit the 'thanks.tpl.php' file in each directory with the info you wish to provide.

If you need to provide the customer with any information prior to them entering the payment gateway, add the info to the final 'step' before 'thanks.tpl.php'

is there a way to put the http:// in automatically, because most users wont know to do that?


and i cant find the '©' at the bottom of the layout page?

I have

PHP Code:

</div>
<div class="copy">� 2005 - 2006 <a href="http://www.YOURSITE.com">MY SITE HOME PAGE</a>.
      - All Rights Reserved</div>
</body>
</html> 


at the bottom of my layout page, if you change the site to yours you can add the wording for your homepage and it will work fine.

cool thanks for the advice.

is it possible to make the HTTP:// before a registered users website automatic?

[calaf6]

I did it be putting the http:// in the address box, and added
Please insert FULL site address, including http://
on the input template.

One of the others will probably have a better way though!!
