That looks like it worked - thanks for your help. A few more questions:
* Is it possible to change the wording of the heading "Welcome to ArchivesSpace"? * How can we add line breaks to the Welcome message? Thanks. - Janet ----------------- Janet Hack Science and Online Technologies Librarian Hoover Library | McDaniel College 2 College Hill | Westminster, MD 21157-4390 410-857-2283 | [email protected] ________________________________ From: [email protected] <[email protected]> on behalf of Majewski, Steven Dennis (sdm7g) <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, December 9, 2019 2:06 PM To: Archivesspace Users Group <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] need help customizing text in ArchivesSpace There shouldn’t be a text value after ‘brand:’ The value of en.brand is the hash of the following values, so that en.brand.title, for example, maps to a value. If you take out that text it should work: en: brand: title: McDaniel College Archives Catalog home: Home welcome_message: HEY HEY HEY! ! Error message is a bit confusing, but it’s trying to say it can’t assign mappings of title, home, welcome_message, to en.brand because it already has a string value of “McDaniel Archives” .

You can edit the file in place for testing, but for normal production, I advise copying the values you want to change into plugins/local/public/locales/en.yml and editing them there. But again, you have to be careful to preserve .yml hierarchy. You may also eventually want to try copying some of the shared view templates into plugins/local/public/views/shared/ and editing those. It’s easier to manage upgrades if you keep your changes in plugins directories. (*) In fact, googling this, I see it doesn’t like tabs at all. Must be only spaces. — Steve M.
