I want to change default “Log In” to ” Log In or Register”,  so how to add register link at top links for magento site?

It’s easy.

At app/design/frontend/default/your-template/layout, find customer.xml, and, find this:

<reference name=”top.links”>
<action method=”addLink” translate=”label title” module=”customer”><label>Log In</label><url helper=”customer/getLoginUrl”/><title>Log In </title><prepare/><urlParams/><position>100</position></action>
</reference>

and just replace the code to:

<reference name=”top.links”>
<action method=”addLink” translate=”label title” module=”customer”><label>Log In or Register</label><url helper=”customer/getLoginUrl”/><title>Log In or Register</title><prepare/><urlParams/><position>100</position></action>
</reference>

That’s OK.

Google analytics is the most useful tool for wesite webmaster to analytics the site. It is easy to add google analytics to magento site. Please just at the adminend, at System>Configuration>Sales>google API>google analytics>, enable it, and just write your account number.

Note: account number is not your google account, such as “yourgoogleaccount@gmail.com”, it is such as “UA-19999034-1″.

Good luck.

Static Block of Magento is a very useful tool for us to add some static content. Copy the line of code below where you want the static block to appear and change the ‘identifier’ to the identifier of the static block you created.

getLayout()->createBlock('cms/block')->setBlockId('identifier')->toHtml() ?>

Fox example, you just add a static block named “header_content”, and named the identifier “header_content”, then you will add it at the top menu of every page of your website, so, do it like this:

1, look the header.phtml at app/design/frontend/default/your-template/template/page/html

2, add the code:
getLayout()->createBlock('cms/block')->setBlockId('header_content')->toHtml() ?>
to header.phtml.

3, upload the header.phtml to your server, that’s all.

There are so many addons and modules at zen cart offical site. I will tell you the best 5 addons to improve your zen cart sites.

1, Name: ultimate_seo_urls function: pseudo-static web site url. This is almost a must, unless you do not want to get good rankings.

2, Name: Fckeditor effect: zen-cart is the default text editor, you can choose to become htmlarea, but still not work. FCKEDITOR solve this problem.

3, Name: Newsletter_Subscribe We know the exact e-mail marketing, said “permission-based email marketing.” How to get approved? This is to allow customers to subscribe to your site content. When you have a long, long, long enough mailing lists, that means there is no ranking, your site can still order.

4, Name: column_layout_grid_for_product_listing : zen-cart product list changes the default display style. zen-cart product list is the default style for each product line, just like Ali did. This may not good. If you want to have more than one product line, such as 4 or 5, you use this plugin.

5, Name: Zen_lightbox : that of a cow will not have seen his picture in a pop-up enlarged, dark background to show the way? Called lightbox technology. zen-cart product pictures can also be used to the technology. Compared Hyun, has a good user experience.

When you had installed your zen cart, you found at the bottom/footer of page, shows that “your ip address is:”. How to remove or delete it?

Remove it:

Go to your admin home, and then “configuration”, and in the drop-down list, click “layout settings”, and then click “Footer – Show IP Address status”, and set it to “0″,  and update.

Delete it:

Go to your FTP, and then go to your zen cart template directory, for example “template_default”, and go to “common” directory, and download “tpl_footer.php”.

Then use DreamWeaver to edit it.  Look up “<!–bof-ip address display –>”, and then you will see the below:

<!–bof-ip address display –>
<?php
if (SHOW_FOOTER_IP == ’1′) {
?>
<div id=”siteinfoIP”><?php echo TEXT_YOUR_IP_ADDRESS . ‘  ‘ . $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']; ?></div>
<?php
}
?>
<!–eof-ip address display –>

And delete these codes.

Now “your ip address is” had removed or deleted at your zen cart website.
