Christening to Baptism

[Derek Heritage]

Is there a way to change the wording on the person page from Christening to Baptism?

Please don't tell me they mean the same. I just want t know if you can do it and if so, how.

Thanks.

You will probably find that in the language files on the server - easiest way to access is using FTP.

For example in the English UTF* admintext.php

 

You use the cust_text file to make the changes that you want so they don't get overwritten in an upgrade.

I may be missing something here, but the only reference I can find in admintext.php is to Adult Christening, However Christening appears in nearly all the other php's in that section.

Looks like I'll have to live with it, as I don't know what to put in cust_text.

It's in the file alltext.php.

Copy this line

$admtext['CHR'] = "Christening";

and paste it into the file cust_text.php in your English, and English-UTF8 folders, then replace the word Christening with Baptism, so

$admtext['CHR'] = "Baptism";

should do what you want.

I use the following overrides in my English-UTF-8/cust_text.php

//  Overrides for Christenings
		$text['borchr'] = "Birth/Baptism - Death/Burial";
		$text['altbirthplace'] = "Place Baptized";
		$text['altbirthdatetr'] = "Year Baptized";
		$text['altbirthdate'] = "Date Baptized";
$text['bornchr'] = "Born/Baptized";  //from search
$text['christened'] = "Baptized";
$admtext['CHR'] = "Baptism";

Not an answer, but how I do it.  If the child is christened/baptized as a child, I use the christening field.  If as they were baptized after childhood, I have created a Baptized as an Adult event.

Thanks for your help. I still can't get it to work.
