Taken ownership of Prestashop but struggling with changing text, please help!

[paulcornwall]

Hello people,

I've recently taken over this website www.engraveexpress.co.uk. There is a block of text I cannot edit via the modules and fed up asking my developer to keep updating it. It's the text at the top of the homepage currently showing "OPEN for Enquiries & Telephone Orders Mon-Sat 12-7 pm ALL PRICES INCLUSIVE". Can anyone talk me through how to change this?

Also, the green text, on the menu, how can this be changed to match the theme colours of black or orange?

Many thanks in advance.

Paul

If the text is not part of a module it will be hard-coded in your template (child)-theme files and can be changed there (cache reset might be required after).

Layout stuff like the menu color can be adjusted in your themes custom.css file or sometimes the theme has a special configuration module

Thanks @jbw for the response. How do I gain access to the template (child) theme files? Willing to learn, if you can help?

Login by FTP/SSH or in your hosting panel file manager (if existing). Don't forget to backup before changing anything

If you have no experience with editing code like this I'd also suggest learning the basics of HTML/CSS.
With some basic understanding you can achieve a lot and are less likely to mess stuff up.

I have the basics of html but location of files etc have me confused. I've just logged into my hosting cpanel and now trying to locate the child theme file?

[Nickovitshj]

You now have to go to the public_html folder.
In there, there'll be a /themes folder. 
Inside that folder you must then select to theme used on your shop.

Once you're there there'll be a .tpl file that needs editing.
Most likely once named header.tpl

[paulcornwall]

Now I'm here, cannot see a .tpl file, can you?

[Nickovitshj]

Is the premium watch shop folder empty other than the mails and modules folders?
There should be a /templates folder within these theme folders.

Thats it. What you see is what I got?

[paulcornwall]

Managed to find it. Now, can anyone help with the location of the html for the menu text (currently 'green')?

As said to make it green you should change its text in yout themes customs.css (in theme/assets/css folder)

[Nickovitshj]

As JBW described above.

In that file you need to change the following css rule:

.cbp-horizontal > ul > li > a, .cbp-horizontal > ul > li > span.cbp-main-link {
    color: #4CAF50;
    line-height: 45px;
    padding-left: 10px;
    max-width: 400px;
    padding-right: 10px;
    text-transform: uppercase;
    font-size: 15px;
    border-left: 1px none #cecece;
}

 

To change the orange box message at the top I think this needs changing in header.tpl

you should also learn how to create a copy of your clients shop, non-indexable where you can test modifcations before applying to production.  always do this first....

you will sleep better at night

I'm still stuck trying to change the menu colour from green to black/orange. I've searched as suggested but I cant find themes custom.css as mentioned above, help! 

[paulcornwall]

Could this be anything under category.css?

Use chrome dev tools to find which .css is being used.   Also create dev shop so you don't screw up production your welcome

Seem you have an old 1.6 shop, so there is not custom.css. You have to change themes/Watch/css/style.css
