The Welcome message displays on your Quick Shopping Cart storefront home page, which is the first page visitors see as they enter your site. Use this page to welcome visitors to your site, reassure visitors that your storefront is safe and secure, and provide a brief summary of your products or any other message.

From the home page, you can also access a search feature, navigation menu, featured items (if assigned), company information (branding), and your product categories.

To Create a Welcome Message

  1. Log in to your Account Manager.
  2. In the My Products section, click Quick Shopping Cart.
  3. In the Quick Shopping Cart list, click Open next to the Quick Shopping Cart account you want to use.
  4. From the Storefront menu, click Information.
  5. From the Branding Manager menu, select Welcome Message.
  6. On the Welcome Message page, use the provided default text, or enter your own message in the Message text box.

    NOTE: You can include any or all of the variables from the Variables list. Select the desired variable and click ADD.

  7. If errors were detected, view the error details that display below the menu, make the correction(s), and click Verify. Continue making corrections as necessary.
  8. If there are no errors, click OK to close the Congratulations! This Text is Valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional! message.
  9. After all errors are corrected and your HTML is valid, click Save.

NOTE: Click Default Text to remove the current message and display the default message. To prevent a welcome message from displaying, delete all of the text.
