    the simplest fix would be to put it in the footer so that it appears on every page, which you'll find in the english.php in catalog/includes/languages

    I would just add another entry to the box and call it About US and then add what you are looking for.... the contact us page works pretty nice for customers emailing you, and I'm guessing that you are looking to add location and so forth.

    Just my thought

    I added the info to the contact page AND created an "About Me" page. You can see them here, if you want an example:

    http://www.honeybeadjewelry.com/contact_us.php

    http://www.honeybeadjewelry.com/about_me.php

    You can add the info to the Contact Us page in the catalog/includes/languages/english/contact_us.php. I also modified the catalog/templates/template_name/content/contact_us.tpl.php file to get the page looking like I wanted.

    Just thought I would add this handy tip........

    To automatically include your business name and address to the contact us page follow these instructions:

    go to catalog/includes/languages/contact_us.php

    line 13 should look something like this:

    define('HEADING_TITLE', '<h6>'contact us');

    replace it with this:


    define('HEADING_TITLE', '<h6>'.STORE_NAME.'<br>'.nl2br(STORE_NAME_AD DRESS).'<br>Email: <a href="mailto:'.STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS.'">'.STOR E_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS.'</a><br><br>ENTER SOME TEXT HERE</h6><br>');

    This will retrieve your store information and place it on the contact us page at the top above the boxes that are already there. This is handy as if you ever change any information like your phone number, it will automatically up date it. Remember to change the "ENTER SOME TEXT HERE" to say something like "If you would prefer please fill out the on line form below".

    This works well for me.
