# Labels {#configuration-labels}

The labels this extension shows in the frontend come from
[`EXT:academic_programs/Resources/Private/Language/locallang.xlf`](https://docs.typo3.org/m/typo3/reference-coreapi/main/en-us/ExtensionArchitecture/FileStructure/Resources/Private/Language.html#file-extension-resources-private-language-locallang-xlf) and its
translations; the table below names the ones that come from another file. A site
changes a label without copying a template, in TypoScript:
under `plugin.tx_academicprograms._LOCAL_LANG` for every content element
of the extension, or under `plugin.tx_academicprograms_<plugin>._LOCAL_LANG`
for one of them. A label set for the plugin wins over one set for the extension.

**EXT:my_sitepackage/Configuration/TypoScript/setup.typoscript**

```typoscript
plugin.tx_academicprograms._LOCAL_LANG {
  default.sorting.field.label = Sort by
  de.sorting.field.label = Sortieren nach
}

# Only in one content element:
plugin.tx_academicprograms_programlist._LOCAL_LANG.default.sorting.field.label = Sort by
```

The dots of a key need no escaping: TypoScript reads them as levels of its tree,
and TYPO3 joins the levels to the key again. A label of another language goes
under its language key, `de` for German.

| Content element | Path |
| --- | --- |
| **Program List** (`academicprograms_programlist`) | `plugin.tx_academicprograms_programlist._LOCAL_LANG` |
| **Program Details** (`academicprograms_programdetails`) | `plugin.tx_academicprograms_programdetails._LOCAL_LANG` |

The page template of a program page is not rendered by a plugin: a site sets
its labels under the path of the extension.

A language file override works as well, and replaces the label of the file
itself: `$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['SYS']['locallangXMLOverride']`.

Earlier versions of this extension read these overrides on TYPO3 v12 and v13 from
`plugin.tx_academic_programs` instead, see
[the changelog](https://docs.typo3.org/permalink/fgtclb/academic-programs:important-label-overrides-use-the-documented-path@2.4).

## Where the labels are shown {#where-the-labels-are-shown}

Placeholders in angle brackets stand for a part of the key that the template
or the code fills in, a category type or a field name for example.
