Language Overrides and Templates

What exactly is the order that ZenCart loads language files?

The main question I want to ask is: "How do I override /includes/langauges/english.php?

Re: Language Overrides and Templates

The answer you need is: /includes/languages/NAME_OF_YOUR_TEMPLATE/english.php loads before /includes/languages/english.php

So would it be better if I copy and pasted the entire english.php file or just the portions that I'm changing?

Smart question!
The best thing is to just copy the parts you're changing. :wink:
