    Are there actually templates available for amember to customize the payment section? I was wondering how to make 2 payment pages look completely different. Do I have to know how to edit php?

    And I take it I can't remove 'powered by amember' right?

    Really? Then why is it there?

    So is there any easy way to edit the payment page without knowing pHP?

    You need to edit the template files in /amember/templates/
    Mainly look to editing the header and footer files.

    Hi Acrimon,

    Well I have a table style that takes up the center 60% or so of the screen and I'd like to put all the payment options inside that table. And I'd like to know for sure if I'm allowed to remove 'powered by amember'

    I know html (but use dreamweaver) but I don't know php.

    just edit the following templates:

    /templates/signup.html
    /templates/cc/cc_info.html (i think that's what it was)

    and yeah, Dreamweaver will do.

    Thanks. My problem though is it's signup.php and I don't know .php and when it opens in dreamweaver nothing shows display-wise, just the code. I know html but not php :(

    you don't have to touch signup.php - signup.html is the template for signup.php that you should edit... .html file is what gets displayed on the screen, while computed and processed in .php file ;)

    Thanks so much guys sorry I didn't realize there was a signup.html file.

    Does anyone else have a really weird signup.html file that whenver you open it in a browser or in dreamweaver it has all this crazy extra code? Should I just ignore everything and throw it all inside a table? (At least I know html lol)

    That is smarty code that you see.

    I would not suggest editing with Dreamweaver as it does not understand Smarty code and can sometimes alter / remove it rending the template non-functioning.

    A simple notepad or smarty friendly editor is preferred.
