Changing Other Information on contact page

Post by rednyle » Wed May 11, 2011 9:49 pm

Hi,

Is it possible to change the title, Other Information, in the contact page to something like "driving directions" instead? I've created a contact and published it as a slider which has 3 tabs, Contact, Contact Form and Other Information and it would be nice if I can change the title display for all 3 tabs. This if for the beez20 template.

Thank you,
Dom

Is there anyway that I can remove just the "Other Information" title?
Thank you

[*] Log in to the backend and go to Extensions > Language Manager and click on the Overrides tab.

[*] Select New in the upper right.

[*] On the right hand side make sure "Value" is checked (normally is by default) and do a search for Other information.

[*] In the search results that pop up (there should only be one) click on Other information. On the left side in the "Text" field delete the words and click Save & Close in the upper right.

Instead of deleting the text you can also type in whatever you desire. More info:

Hi there!

Now I stuck at step.4. At the Search Result box, it said "No matching texts found".

Suggest posting the whole page.

What version of Joomla! (e.g., 2.5.8) is being used?

Just wanted to say thank you. Your post just helped me and worked like a charm. All I had to do was clear Joomla's cache and the cache of the web browser and the change showed up immediately!
