Change- serendipitySideBarTitle

Buzz · Post by **Buzz** » Fri Sep 01, 2006 9:22 pm

Help please?

In the sidebar, there are the feature titles, i.e.:

-Calendar
-Categories
-Archives
-Syndicate This Blog

Where exactly are the source codes located if I wanted to change the name of the title?

For example, I want to change the title, "Syndicate This Blog" to "Syndicate This Weblog"

Thanks for any direction anyone can give me.

-Jeff

If the option doesn't exist in the plugin management section of the admin suite then you will need to hack your Serendipity files. All of the plugins you mention are internal plugins, which means they don't actually have their own plugin folder, but the good news is that all of their titles are listed in the language files. So in the lang folder, find your language and open it in your favorite text editor, then simply use the find function. Only edit the definitions that need eidting, DO NOT do a find/replace on all instances of the word.

If you find that this hasn't worked, you may be using the utf-8 lang files, and in this case oyu need to do exactly the same thing with your language file in the lang/utf-8 folder.

hope that makes sense.

I know that feeling.

By the way, where is Australasia?
