ModeratorHi elames,
You'll need to run a search through the WooCommerce plugin files to find the string. Its not something the theme edits so there isn't an option available through the theme admin.
I think woo commerce creates most of its basic functions in woocommerce>woocommerce>template.php so I would check there first. You'll need to edit the file then re-save it in the same place in the plugin folder.

MemberI found the php file from firebug and opened it. This is what it says.
<p class="demo_store">This is a demo store for testing purposes — no orders shall be fulfilled.</p>
But when I open the php file to <p class="demo_store"> that text is not there and I don't know where to edit it. Sorry but css is not a real strong point for me. But I sure am learning alot here.
Thanks

ModeratorHi elames,
I just did a search of the plugin file, its on line 170 in woocommerce>woocommerce-template.php. You'll need to edit that line of text and then save it back to the same place in the plugin folder.
Just as a quick aside, using Firebug is great for editing and finding css fixes. What Wordpress, themes and plugins are however is php files that are processed by the server to output HTML web pages. So what you see when you inspect a page is actually the proccessed version of all the .php files in the theme, wordpress and plugin folders. Additionally, the pages run javascript files which can manipulate the css and html a little further to create the effects you see like sliding images and fading in/out.

Devin

MemberI edited on the demo file text. that was it. The slide show is working now. But of course, I lost all the products etc I had in the site. But I guess that is ok now as I find out woo commerce is not going to work for my client as there is no way to have it work with her Intuit Go payment credit card processing. I am just going to dump the woo commerce plug in. So I am looking for another alternative now.
