Changing Manufacturers subheading to artists

[Guest]

I am trying to set up a store to sell music cd's dvd's and downloads but I need to change the "manufacturers" drop-down that is in the standard (clean) install to say something else like "Artists".

 

Could someone tell me how to do that, and on what pages i need to make the change and in what directories- I don't want to change it but it not change throughout the site.

hi, you need an editor like textpad where you can grep your whole languages folder to see where a word is used.

 

in your case, search for "manufacturer" with it, and you will see it will pop up in engish.php, but also in the product listing, so in index.php and advanced_search.php, and products_new.php

grep = search through a whole folder for a word or expression

 

and I listed all language files you need to alter. Did you read my answer??
