Does anyone know exactly where the language for sale pricing is located within the languages.asp page?
I am looking to change the language that shows when you put something on sale, so when you check "show savings"
usually it looks like this:

$100

Price: $150

You Save: $50You Save: $50


I made a mistake and edited it at one point, and now I cant remember where to find it on that page.

I took out the "you save", and now everyone thinks that the amount in red is the price, not the savings.
so either I have to add back in the "you save" language, or completely remove the savings information in red (which I have not been able to understand how to do) so it's not confusing.

Mistake above , this is how it normally looks:

$100

Price: $150 (has a strike through it)

you save; $50


and I want to change it to:

sale; $100
$150 (with a strike through it)

Hi Lorid,
   There are two places this text is found in languages.asp - look for:-
 
dictLanguage.Add "english_prdD1_2", "You Save: "  
dictLanguage.Add "english_viewPrd_4",  "You Save: "

Thank you SO much!
Any idea on how to change the language so that the sale stuff reads like this? where the sale price is in red right above the regular price which is crossed out?

sale $100 (in red)
$150 (with a strike through it)

it's not likely a change you will make to the languages.asp file - but instead you need to alter the CSS characteristics. Find the associated style names in pcStorefront.css and edit their respective settings.

What if I want to eliminate the strike through?  Just show the List Price.?

Thanks

Maybe a bit off topic, but I'd recommend downloading the entire source code of your site. That way you can "find within entire current site" or something similar to search for whatever terms you're looking for. Saves so much time as opposed to just searching through random files until you find what you're after.

Good suggestion, I was able to find the CSS code for this issue in the files, even though I couldn't find it using FireBug.

Hi Curt,

Have you tried Google Chrome's Developer Tools? It's Inspect Element tool is tremendously helpful for working CSS. It'll tell you were the rules are coming from, what's trumping what, highlight what you're focused on, and you even event make changes in the tool to see the effect. 

I highly recommend it.

Thanks Sean
I have been using the firefox one, call Firebug.  I have tried the Chrome version, but didn't like it as well as the Firebug.  But maybe I'm just tired of learning new things.  It seems like every other day I am having a new program/app/website/etc. to figure out.
