    Default Customize Error MEssage Text?

    Is there a way to change the text of some of the error messages that appear in the messageStack to make them mroe descriptive when necessary?

    For example, I am using attributes for certain products and I have added (as suggested on the forums) and additonal attribute item ("==select one=='') so that if the user doesn't choose something they will get a warning. But the message that apepars in the messageStack could stand to be a bit more descriptive.

    Currently it says - "On the Option for: soap 1 You picked an Invalid Selection: == select one =="

    For most people that would be enough, but I would like to add a sentence such as "Please use the dropdown menu to choose a soap" or something like that.

    Where/how can I make that change?

    All those are located in language files. In ZC admin -> tools there is a thing called Developer tool or something, with that you can search for the specific message and see which file contains it. Then use FTP to make the change.
    I no longer provide installation support on forum for all my modules. However, if there are real bugs with the modules please feel free to contact me

    I'm not sure if you can customize that or not since it may be built on parameters from the product and attributes.
