When working with ViArt Shop you have all the possibilities to make your online store one and only. You can change the feel and look of your site, select different templates and change color schemes. Another great feature is that you have the ability to edit the messages your customers see while surfing your site without the necessity to edit any files*.

*Note, the /messages folder on your FTP must have writable permissions '777'.Read more.

Please go to Settings > System > Static Messages. Your screen should look like the following:

There are supported 34 languages at the moment, you can see their country flags at the top of the page. Messages that are used in the shopping cart system are divided into ten sections and they correspond to the file names. They are:

  • admin messages
  • cart messages
  • download messages
  • forum messages
  • install messages
  • manuals messages
  • messages
  • profile messages
  • reviews messages
  • support messages

In order to edit a message you have to select a language (in case it differs from the default one) and locate in through the sections. Should you have any difficulties, you can use the search field in the upper right corner of the page. Click the corresponding 'Edit' link and enter a desirable word or phrase into the Message text box.

Note: You can add new messages as well by clicking the 'Add New' link (above the 'Edit' links).

How to remove Read-Only marks

By default, the static messages are set to the read-only status. If you are going to edit them you are to change the permissions. To change the permissions, please do the following steps:

1. Open the /messages folder within your ViArt shop installation via any FTP client e.g. FileZilla

2. Find the folder "messages"

3. Change the files permissions to be writable in all subsequent subfolders and file for all users:

  • For Linux it should be set to '777'
  • For Windows untick the read-only checkbox

After doing this you can edit the static messages via Admin panel. Please remember to make a backup of the messages folder before next upgrade or otherwise all your changed messages will be lost.
