Changing welcome message

ctodd72 · November 5th, 2006, 09:20 AM

For unregistered members, where would I go to change the welcome message on the index page from "Welcome to the ___ Reviews!" to "Welcome, Guest"?

Thanks,
Christina

Depends on what your trying to do but this in index.php

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

I have the opposite problem. The code in the current product:

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

never produces the second option ("Welcome to the ____ Reviews"). It's always "Welcome, Guest" or "Welcome, 'username'".

Changing the first logical comparator to:

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

seems to fix it.

I see welcome to sitename if not logged in

Main Index - Reeftalk Reviews

I reverted the code. But I can't post the URL for you to try because I haven't made 15 posts....!

OK, attaching screen shots of non-logged and logged access.

I am not sure what you mean you cant post a url because you do not have 15 posts.

There is nothing wrong with your code. In a standalone install we explicitly set username for guest to guest hense thats why it says welcome guest not welcome to your site

The code seems a bit strange to me. When (or why) would $User['username'] ever be equal to "Unregistered"?

Nevertheless, I want the message for unregistered visitors to read:
"Welcome to the ______ Review. You must register or login in order to view the content on this site."

If anyone else ever wants that, too, the code is here.

User username is explicitly set to Guest for people not logged in in the reviewpost.php file in the forums subdirectory of your code. Therefore as I have said everything is fine if you want anything different you would need to modify the code.
