You can change any text in a language file in admin Tools → Define Languages - see Change Language Files.
Sometimes it can be difficult to find which language file contains the text.
To find text in a language file, use the search facility at Github where the repository for the code for CE Phoenix is stored.
For our example: How to change Welcome email text.
After completing a test purchase, it can be seen that an email is sent to the customer that starts with the text, We welcome
- Go to the Github repository for CE Phoenix. GitHub repository - https://github.com/gburton/CE-Phoenix
- Enter the search term in the input box (top left) - enclose the text in double quotes.
- For this example enter, "We welcome"
- Click In this repository in the drop down menu.
- The search results will show this:
- In this example, it shows that the text is in the file - includes/languages/english/modules/notifications/n_create_account.php
- Backup any files before making changes.
- This language file in your backup directory could be changed and uploaded to overwrite the one on your server.
- Alternatively, find the language file in admin Tools → Define Languages list - in this example the file is modules/notifications/n_create_account.php.
- Click to open, make changes to the text (make sure you only change the text and not any code or punctuation marks that may also be part of the code), click Save - done. Check and test the shop.
