With the add-on Simple CMS installed and enabled, your X-Cart store can provide a "Terms & Conditions" page for your store visitors. By default, a link to this page can be found on the storefront in the site footer menu.

Technically, the "Terms & Conditions" page is a content page. Like other content pages, it can be managed via the "Content Pages" tab of the "Menus & Pages" page (Store Design > Menus & Pages).

Initially, the "Terms & Conditions" page contains dummy text:

Before you make your store available to visitors, you should edit the dummy content of the "Terms & Conditions" page, replacing it with your actual terms and conditions statement. See:

Hiding the "Terms and Conditions" Page from the Footer Menu

If you do not like to display the "Terms & Conditions" page link in the site footer, you can disable the link from being displayed in the footer menu.

To hide the "Terms & Conditions" page link from the Footer menu:

  1. In your store's Admin area, go to the "Menus & Pages" page (Store Design > Menus & Pages), switch to the Select the Footer menu tab on the Menus page (Content > Menus) of your store's Admin area.

  2. On the list of footer menu items, locate the item "Info links" and click on the submenu items number link for it.

  3. On the page that opens, locate the menu item for "Terms and Conditions" and use the ON/OFF switch next to its name to disable the link (green = enabled, grey = disabled).

  4. Click Save changes.
