Serious Problem!!!

I'm English, based in the UK along with my customers.

The issue is that 'Catalog' is spelt the american way throught the entire ecommerce system!

 

Is there a way of changing this?

 

I have tried searching for an answer, so I'm not being lazy..

 

Thanks

Find and Replace, that is the best advice I can give you.

 

Yes it is time consuming, tedious, but probably the only way.

A good place to start is catalog/includes/languages/english.php

 

Change

define('HEADER_TITLE_CATALOG', 'Catalog');

to

define('HEADER_TITLE_CATALOG', 'Catalogue');

 

All other files you need are in catalog/includes/languages/english/ directory.

 

For other areas, also see my tutorials at http://www.oscommerce.com/forums/index.php?sho...ndpost&p=525791

 

Good luck!

Mmmm......

 

'catalog' doesn't actually appear that many times in the code - I think you will find that changing the language text as previously described will fix the problem.

 

If you are thinking of changing the .../catalog/ in the URL then a much better alternative is to change the shop's root by changing the server settings so that this is not displayed anyway.

 

Rich. (also English, so I sympathise with you - it's a real pain)

I just realized that the English have similar "problems" as the Americans.

The contact us page has "Enquiry" instead "Inquiry".

 

The catalog(ue) problem would have been resolved if they would have called it store, but take Rich's advise and move everything up to the root.
