I had an idea on the last topic you closed, I want them to call for shipping prices. In your theme, where do I edit this message for the Cart and Checkout pages:

“There don‘t seem to be available shipping methods. Please double check your address, or contact us if you need any help.”

Hello,

You can find this string in plugins\woocommerce\templates\cart\cart-shipping.php file on line 76

Also we recommended to do all changes in Child Theme.
Please copy this file into it saving folder structure like:
wp-content\themes\woopress-child\woocommerc\templates\cart\cart-shipping.php
and then add changes.

Regards,
Robert Hall.

I tried this in both the child theme and regular and I still see the other message. I noticed that before I edited it, line 76 actually has the message:

“There are no shipping methods available. Please double check your address, or contact us if you need any help.”

BUT the message that is appearing in my cart and checkout is:

“There don‘t seem to be available shipping methods. Please double check your address, or contact us if you need any help.”

Hello,

Please update the theme to the latest version and Woocommerce as well.
Before update delete “woocommerce” folder in the directory wp-content/themes/woopress/ and it’ll be reuploaded from a new theme package.
Also update all required plugins https://www.8theme.com/download-plugins/ .

Don’t forget to create back up of your files and database before starting update process!

(it’s for Legenda theme but the process is the same).

After that check the text in the file plugins/woocommerce/templates/cart/cart-shipping.php file on line 76.

Regards,
Eva Kemp.

this is going to be a lot of work just to change a shipping message, will this overwrite all my theme settings?

also, in other tickets I’ve been told to modify theme files such as in order to modify the contact form you recommended this:
You can edit in \themes\woopress\framework\shortcodes.php file on line 241

I’m assuming these will be wiped out, and same with i had to modify theme files to change the top links.

I’ve backed up the plugins folder and the woopress theme folder and child, but I’m still worried this will cause me a big problem.

Hello,

Please check the file wp-content/themes/woopress/woocommerce/cart/cart-shipping.php. You can find the needed text in line 76.

We recommend to make changes in a child theme not to lose modifications after theme update.

Eva Kemp.

I already checked that, but you didn’t answer my other questions about updating the theme.

Hello,

The changes that you made in theme files will be overwritten after theme update, but custom.css file will be unchanged. To keep all your modifications you need create child theme (“woopress-child” folder is already included in the theme package). You need copy the code you changed in woopress/framework/shortcodes.php file to the child theme woopress-child/functions.php.

Best regards,
Jack Richardson.
