For version 2.x
To edit a phrase or line of text in Moodle
- login
- click Language from site administration
- click language customization
- select the language pack from the drop down menu
- click on 'open language pack for editing' (the pack will start to load, and this may take some time to complete)
- Click or Ctrl+Click to select files on the "Filter strings" interface. Notice files are grouped. For example, you will find the lesson strings under "mod" and moodle.php under core.
- After selecting the file(s), it is possible to use "string must contain" and other filters. For example, look at only string text that has "teacher" the file(s) you selected.
- Click "Save changes and continue editing" if you want to pick another filter or PHP file(s) to edit.
- Click "Save and check in string into files" to save all changes you have made.
Tip:
Do not see any string changes?
Did you remember to use the "Save and check in string into files" button?
Did you refresh your browser so it is not looking at a cached page?
Did you edit the language file that is actually being used in your site, course or by the user?
Tip:
Can't find the string you wish to change? Tick the 'Show origin of languages strings' checkbox in Settings > Site administration > Development > Debugging then visit the page containing the string you want to customize.
