[solved] NEWS MODULE - Change text of "return" url?

[beherenow_uk]

Hi all,

I am using CMSMS 1.6.4 and News 2.10.2

I'm really stuck. I can't find where to change the text of the $return_url in the detail template of the News module. I actually want to change the text to say "Return to news items" and I want to style a box around it too.

Can this be done? If so, how? Please help I would appreciate any help!!

Thanks, Karl

line 141 of News/lang/en_US.php

Code: Select all

$lang['news_return'] = '<span class=\"return\">Return to news items</span>';

Stylize with css
span.return {border:solid #CCC 1px;}

Jean, nice! I just started with CMSMS last night.
Ten minutes ago, I stumbled over the same issue as Karl.

This forum is impressive!

a) do a search for module_custom
    (or check out my blog)... that way you don't have to modify core files.

b) remind me to fix this for 1.7
    it should just be a url that the template then makes a link out of.

You should start taking a note of these things somewhere safe.

I don't know what impact a fix of Calguy's would have, but in the normal course of events, an upgrade would wipe out that customization.
