Changing some names

Post by bmccool »

Hi,

Firstly, excellent program. I am investigating deploying this within our organisation and it is definitely the front runner at the moment.

I need to change the name Project: next to the dropdown box, Reason being our management would prefer to have it called Request For: and then select the appropiate project.

It would make our users lives a bit easier and they wouldn't get so confused.

Any ideas pls?

Thanks.

Hi bmccool:

All strings like that should be changable from the appropriate language file in the lang directory.

In your case, just change $s_email_project but be aware that this will change other instances (which shouldn't be a bad case for you, anyway).

Hope this helps,
Lincoln.

hmmmmm, unfortunately i can't get it right...

i'm editing the strings_english.txt file, restarting the apache webserver (just in case) but none of the changes reflect...

Any other ideas?

You're talking about the label to the left of the project dropdown, right?

If so, I would guess it's getting cached somewhere as I just tested it then on my machine and it worked... sorry if that doesn't help you any more, though!
