Introduction

What does it do?

This extension give you the framework and working examples to override already existing labels of third party extensions and the Core. Adding new labels is also possible. There is no new fancy trick, just consequently used possibilities of TYPO3.

Users manual

  • Download and install the extension.
  • Have a look into the files ext_localconf.php, locallang_db.php and ext_typoscript_setup.txt. There you follow the given examples and change whatever existing label you want to. If you to change labels for the frontend, just add your TypoScript code into ext_typoscript_setup.txt. If changes are needed for the backend, find the correct locallang file (probably with a global search in files) and use the configuration options with $TYPO3_CONF_VARS['BE']['XLLfile'] like the examples you can see in ext_localconf.php.If you want, you can alternatively use Page TypoScript to modify label for dropdowns modified in TCA.
  • Clear the cache and you should see your modified labels.
