*Which* error mssages do you wish to change?

Form verification error messages

I am placing them in different place on the side of the form and changing their content

As an example here is one of the strings that I tried to change in includes/languages/english.php and didn't get any result

 

define('ENTRY_FIRST_NAME_ERROR', ' <small><font color="#FF0000">min ' . ENTRY_FIRST_NAME_MIN_LENGTH . ' chars</font></small>');

INTO:

define('ENTRY_FIRST_NAME_ERROR', ' <small><font color="#FF0000">The minimum length of the field should be ' . ENTRY_FIRST_NAME_MIN_LENGTH . ' chars</font></small>');

I will try explain you in the better way i can, since my english is terrible ;)

 

Your error is you are making the modification directly in the code, that's wrong,

you must find the right line in the includes/languages/english.php and modify from there.

 

for example:

 

find this line in english.php

 

define('JS_FIRST_NAME', '* The 'First Name' entry must have at least ' . ENTRY_FIRST_NAME_MIN_LENGTH . ' characters.n');

 

and change to:

 

define('JS_FIRST_NAME', '* The 'First Name' The minimum length of the field should be ' . ENTRY_FIRST_NAME_MIN_LENGTH . ' characters.n');

That have to work fine, somebody fix me if im wrong.

 

grettings.
