Posted by Gary Cunningham-Lee 21 Apr 2007 08:56 GMT-0000 How did you do the edits? In the language file, you have to uncomment the line that you want to change, if it's commented out intially (two slashes at the beginning — remove those slashes), Then change the second instance of the word or phrase, after the arrow, leaving the first as it is. Then maybe clear the caches if you don't see a change (using System Admin link). Is this how you did it? -- Gary
