Magento has a thoughtful feature that can help developers to quickly locate a xml file, a phtml template file, this feature is extremely useful especially for developers who are new to Magento development, as well as Magento store owner who purchased a commercial Magento theme, setup the Magento site by him/herself.
To switch on template path hints, simply go to Configuration”, on the left column, under “Current Configuration Scope:” from drop-down list, then select “Main Website”, then go to Developer tab section, from there, under Debug > Template Path Hints, select YES to switch it on. Now go to frontend and refresh your browser to see it in action.
Each template path is highlighted in red background with white text.
If you have more than one store setup in your Magento site, selecting “Main Website” will result all stores show the template path hints on the frontend, this may not be a good idea if one of the stores is lived. To prevent this, choose store name (Lotus Seeds Design Store in our example) from “Current Configuration Scope:” drop-down list instead.
