    It only changes it when you click on the Page 2 and the page comes up and you will see "about us" there, that part is good.

    We need to get back to the "main page" and change :

    --------------------------------------------
    [ more information ]
    --------------------------------------------
    page 2 to about us
    page 3 to XXXXXXX
    page 4 to YYYYYYYY

    -------------------------------------

    where do you go to change the menu names in other words.

    I would like to make changes to "discount coupons" under the "information" sidebox as well, where do I go to change the menu name ----> "discount coupon" to "incentives" !!???
    includes/languages/english.php

    find the define statements you need to change

    Sorry bout' that I managed to figure it out! Here is what I did:

    [FONT=Verdana]Located: includes/languages/English.php ( you click on languages and you will see English.php and in there you will find this area of code)[/FONT]
    [FONT=Verdana]Changing the names under the “information” and “more information” sideboxes on the main pg[/FONT]
    [FONT=Verdana]The default location:[/FONT]
    [FONT=Verdana]// information box text in sideboxes/information.php[/FONT]
    [FONT=Verdana] define('BOX_HEADING_INFORMATION', 'Information');[/FONT]
    [FONT=Verdana] define('BOX_INFORMATION_PRIVACY', 'Privacy Notice');[/FONT]
    [FONT=Verdana] define('BOX_INFORMATION_CONDITIONS', 'Conditions of Use');[/FONT]
    [FONT=Verdana] define('BOX_INFORMATION_SHIPPING', 'Shipping & Returns');[/FONT]
    [FONT=Verdana] define('BOX_INFORMATION_CONTACT', 'Contact Us');[/FONT]
    [FONT=Verdana] define('BOX_BBINDEX', 'Forum');[/FONT]
    [FONT=Verdana] define('BOX_INFORMATION_UNSUBSCRIBE', 'Newsletter Unsubscribe');[/FONT]
    [FONT=Verdana][/FONT]
    [FONT=Verdana] define('BOX_INFORMATION_SITE_MAP', 'Site Map');[/FONT]
    [FONT=Verdana][/FONT]
    [FONT=Verdana]// information box text in sideboxes/more_information.php - were TUTORIAL_[/FONT]
    [FONT=Verdana] define('BOX_HEADING_MORE_INFORMATION', 'More Information');[/FONT]
    [FONT=Verdana] define('BOX_INFORMATION_PAGE_2', 'Page 2');[/FONT]
    [FONT=Verdana] define('BOX_INFORMATION_PAGE_3', 'Page 3');[/FONT]
    [FONT=Verdana] define('BOX_INFORMATION_PAGE_4', 'Page 4');[/FONT]
    [FONT=Verdana][/FONT]

    [FONT=Verdana]This is where you go to change the “discount coupon” title under the the “information” sidebox[/FONT]
    [FONT=Verdana]Located: [/FONT][FONT=Verdana]includes/languages/[/FONT][FONT=Verdana] (you click on languages and you will see English.php and in there you will find this area of code)[/FONT]
    [FONT=Verdana]define('TEXT_CCVAL_ERROR_INVALID_DATE', 'The expiration date entered for the credit card is invalid. Please check the date and try again.');[/FONT]
    [FONT=Verdana] define('TEXT_CCVAL_ERROR_INVALID_NUMBER', 'The credit card number entered is invalid. Please check the number and try again.');[/FONT]
    [FONT=Verdana] define('TEXT_CCVAL_ERROR_UNKNOWN_CARD', 'The credit card number starting with %s was not entered correctly, or we do not accept that kind of card. Please try again or use another credit card.');[/FONT]
    [FONT=Verdana][/FONT]
    [FONT=Verdana] define('BOX_INFORMATION_DISCOUNT_COUPONS', [/FONT][FONT=Verdana]Discount Coupons);[/FONT]
    That took some time to figure out, if you notice "/english" and "english.php" are in slightly different areas within the same area!! I know it's a bit tuff to explain. But by clicking on /languages you will come to one area where you can make a change, but if you look the "discount coupons" cannot be changed Under the "Information" sidebox on the main page, you have to go one level more to /lang/english/english.php and I believe in there is where I found the code above this message that would change the "discount coupon" to "about us" or whatever a person chooses.

    This is where I got mixed up and you were spot on with you reply, just a bit vague on Exactly which line of code to go to. It just makes it easier if people give a bit more exact, since this computer code stuff is touchy and I am not using an override either!!

    Thanks for the help!!
