[SOLVED] renaming extra field fails

[rotezecke]

I run CMSMS 1.10.3 (English only install) and tried renaming the extra field following the instructions from the development cookbook. renaming fails on both local and remote install. it works fine on an older CMSMS
version (1.6.x) so I'm sure i got the syntax right.
created:

Code: Select all

/custom/lang/en_US/admin.inc.php

and added a line

Code: Select all

<?php
$lang['admin']['extra1'] = 'testing';
?>

but nothing happened (cleared cache, too).
on the other hand, i managed to rename fields for modules, following the cookbook's instructions. anyone encountered a similar problem?

Did you mean /admin/custom/lang/en_US/admin.inc.php?

Looks like a code bug.

In translation.function.php, the 'custom' lang load isn't processed. It tries to, but there is a line that says 'ignore if loaded twice', not realizing that it's a custom override to the admin lang already loaded.

I filed a bug report.

..as a workaround, you can edit /admin/lang/en_US/admin.inc.php, find the 'extra1' entry, and change that.. Not optimal, because if you upgrade, your change will be overwritten.

Has this been fixed in 1.11? Still doesn't work for me on 1.11.1
has anyone tried this?

I got a mail saying that the ticket I filed was closed and included in 1.11. If there's an issue, you can update the ticket.

Interesting.. I've posted comments to many tickets that others have created.
