Change the text label of Descrpt'n & Addit'l Info

Post by Hockeytown »

Hi,

We are setting up a new instance of Mantis 1.2.9 and are in the process of customizing to make it meet more of our requirements. We'd like to change the text label associated with the Description and Additional Information fields. I'm looking for guidance on how to do this and if there are any implications for this change?

I described this for summary field at http://www.mantisbt.org/forums/viewtopi ... =4&t=19896
Works the same way for other strings.
Have a look at file <yourMantisRoot>/lang/strings_english.txt for the names of the strings you want to change.

Where should the custom_strings_inc.php be located?

Not clear what I meant when writing this?

The directory where you installed MantisBT on your webserver. (Maybe something like /var/www/mantisbt or C:\xampp\htdocs\mantisbt)
