You can't do that from Admin.

You need to get an FTP program like Filezilla (free) and use it to download the file mentioned in the tutorial to your local computer, edit it as shown in a text editor, and then upload it back to your site.

Re: Changing page 2 title

You need to do a little reading about FTP, so you understand a little about how it works.

Then, install the client version of Filezilla.

Then , check post #4 here:

Most imporatntly, don't let this stuff intimidate you - we were all where you are now, at one time.

Re: Changing page 2 title

Try this from your FTP

To change the More Information title and the names of Page 2, Page 3 & Page 4 you'll need to download a couple of pages from your FTP (you can open and edit them in Notepad)-

From your main folder in the FTP click-
includes > languages > custom > english (download english)

Look for this code- change the ones I bolded

// information box text in sideboxes/more_information.php - were TUTORIAL_
define('BOX_HEADING_MORE_INFORMATION', 'More Information');
define('BOX_INFORMATION_PAGE_2', 'Page 2');
define('BOX_INFORMATION_PAGE_3', 'Page 3');
define('BOX_INFORMATION_PAGE_4', 'Page 4');

Once you've made your changes, save them then re-upload the english file to the same place you downloaded it from: includes > languages > custom > english
If you are asked to overwrite the already existing english file, say yes.

Next you need to change the 3 pages header name & navigation name.
To do this:

From your main folder in the FTP click-
includes > languages > english (the folder not the file) > custom > Download page_2.php, page_3.php, page_4.php

In each of those files, change the bolded text to what you want the page name to be-

define('NAVBAR_TITLE', 'Links');
define('HEADING_TITLE', '');

define('TEXT_INFORMATION', 'Links information goes here.');
?>

Make sure the page number matches the name of the page you set in the english file.
Example: Page 2 is currently named Page 2 in the English file- say you changed it to About. You would then open page_2.php and change it to About.

Hope that helps!

Re: Changing page 2 title

You will not have a file
/includes/languages/custom/english.php
until you save a copy of
/includes/languages/english.php
to the
/includes/languages/custom/ folder.
(Create the /custom/ folder wherever you see a /classic/ folder.)

Any time you edit a file, save the edited copy to a /custom/ folder located in the same folder as the original copy of the file.
