Edit text beside my logo/ page banner

Post by bidon88 » Wed Jul 30, 2014 7:56 pm

Hello. I have some text beside my logo/ page banner and can't find where to edit this text. I have checked modules, components and articles but still can't find where to edit this text which is beside my logo. Please the image I have attached and please advice (I would like to remove the "coming soon" in red). Thank you.

With out a url it is impossible to know, but it could be in your template's index file.

the url is http://www.cassurgery.com

If it is in the template's index file, please how do I locate and edit this file to remove the "coming soon".

Thanks

In your Admin backend click on Extensions/Template Manager, then select your default template "blue"(it will have a star under the Default column). In the top right click on "Edit HTML", look for this line of code;

Code: Select all

<span style="color:red"><i>~coming soon~</i></span><br />
Oniru, Victoria Island<br  />
Lagos, Nigeria <br />1-800-669-9718 <strong>Office</strong><br /><a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a><br /> </span>
Replace this line;

Code: Select all

<span style="color:red"><i>~coming soon~</i></span><br />
with this as you have an open closing span;

Code: Select all

<span>
Save and Close out of the template editor.

Thank you for your comment. I am sure this will solve the problem, but I can't find the "edit html" anywhere. I have attached a screenshot. Thanks in anticipation of your response.

You have a different Administrator template installed also if you are not logged in as a Super Admin you probably do not have access to the template files. Have you tried under the Themes, Layout or Updates tabs? There is also an "Additional Information" + sign on the left, maybe there is something there?

If you want to email me your site's login details I will have a look for you.

I was able to find it but not in the template manager, it seems your template doesn't allow editing of the index file as it uses a different system similar to Wordpress.

I used the file manager extension you have installed and found the header.php file for your template in the blocks folder. The code was in there and I removed it. I then had to use the cache cleaner before I could see the change on the site.

Thank you very much dpacadmin. I am very grateful.

Please can you advice a stepwise instruction on how I can locate and change this file and also clear the cache. I want to edit the address body to;

Plot 3 Block III,
Yesufu Abiodun Oniru Road
Oniru, Victoria Island,
Lagos.
