Advanced Guestbook title

Dale King — GMT

Where does the scripts get

[code]

Guestbook
[/code]

from, I've looked in all files I can think of, but really do not know much about PHP. I would like to add some text in there so that it is consistent over my side.

If there is no easy way to change this, maybe this would make a nice addon to the script in the admin page somewhere?

Thanks,

Try changing the one in templates/header.php

[b]$LANG[FormSelect][/b]

to

[b]whatever you want the title to be[/b]

I've just tested it with our guestbook and it seems to have done the trick.

Hi I'm getting this error when trying to do this

Warning: fopen(./templates/header.php): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/domain/public_html/guestbook/lib/admin.class.php on line 193

What permissions do I need to change?

You need to do all your editing via and ftp program. Setting permissions so that you can access those files via your admin is just asking for trouble if you are ever hacked.

They are just text files

So I can use a text editor and ftp over the old file?

Yes - And a suggestion here, to be safe - keep a separate folder with the original php file that you plan to edit. That way you have a backup in case you muck up the one you edit....

The information is pulled in from the lang/english.php file (or whatever language you selected from your admin).
It is about midway down on the page under
#form
. . . .
$LANG["FormSelect"] = "Name My Advanced Guestbook";

You will find a lot of text for the various language portions of the Guestbook in the language files.
