    Default How to change "Buy Now"

    I've looked through a lot language files, but couldn't find where to find the "Buy Now" text (which appears under the product). Since the products are actually not for sale, I'd like to change it to something like "More Info". I guess it should be pretty easy. Anybody know how I can do that? Thanks.

    Hi User123,

    I am not sure there is actually a text link for buy now - it maybe that you are missing the images.

    If you are using Firefox then it does replace a missing image with the ALT text from the href.

    Check in catalog/includes/languages/english/images/buttons for button_buy_now.gif.

    If this doesn't fix it - post your url and I will have a look for you.

    Regards,
    pgmarshall

    Thanks for your answer. I guess I was not clear. I can see the image. They work fine. I just want to change the text "Buy Now" to something else since the products are not for sale, but just for showcase. I'm talking about the "Buy Now" text you see on the order button next to (or below) the product image. I couldn't find the text on english.php or index.php.

    Okay - I think I get you now ...

    If you want to change the text within the image - you will need to change the whole image ... easiest way is to use one of these sites. I prefer buttonworkshop.com since it allows you to add small icons to the buttons.

    You will also need to change the ALT text which pops up when you hover over the images which you will find in the catalog/includes/languages/english.php.

    define('IMAGE_BUTTON_BUY_NOW', 'Buy Now');
    Just over write the button_buy_now.gif file with a new one changed to the text you want eg. More Info

    Hope this helps.
