Site page is here.

 

OK...I'm using the advanced guestbook on this site. I have made some changes and such for the look of the guestbook, but I've come up against a change that I just can't figure out.

 

Just beneath the title logo, there's a sentence that says, "Thank you for stopping by my site. Here you can leave your mark." I'd like to change this, but can't for the life of me figure out how to go about it. In the main body template, this text seems to be placed by the code

>$LANG[BookMess6]

 

I looked in the database table, but I just couldn't figure it out.

 

If anyone can get me started in the right direction, that'd be great!!!

Tracy, I copy the entire guestbook folder to my computer so I can maintain backups of the files and it is easier to browse through the files to see how it works.

In the lang/english.php file you will find the text for the various messages.

 

<?php

# General

 

$LANG["metatag"] = "";

 

$LANG["BookMess1"] = "HTML code is disabled";

$LANG["BookMess2"] = "HTML code is enabled";

$LANG["BookMess3"] = "Sign the Guestbook";

$LANG["BookMess4"] = "Back to Guestbook";

$LANG["BookMess5"] = "Administration";

$LANG["BookMess6"] = "Thank you for stopping by my site. Here you can leave your mark.";

 

 

I also zip up the original files in case I want to get the original file back.

You will not need the change permissions of the files this way, just ftp them back to their original place.

Thanks, Don.

 

I also keep it on my local PC. I had tried a Find and Replace using DWMX, but it did not find it. It just didn't make sense to me (for whatever reason) to look in the language files. I guess it does make sense looking at it now... :unsure: ...anyway, thank you for the help!

 

Will make changes right now!
