I'm installing the latest Squirrelmail on a FreeBSD system and everything, so far, is working well, except ...
I have a client that would like some of the 'labels' to have different text. For example, instead of "Compose" he would like the label to say "Write Mail", instead of "Inbox" on the left-hand side he would like "INBOX/RECV", and instead of "Toggle All" he'd like "Select/De-select Messages" ...
I took a quick look at the source and didn't see the obvious -- to me, anyhow -- way of doing this. Any advice would be appreciated. I apologize in advance if this is located someplace in the FAQ or Support section of the Web site -- I did check, but again didn't find anything obvious to me.
Thanks for looking hard on your own first. You didn't find anything, cuz it's not really there. There is a message_icons, er I think that's actually called "image buttons" plugin that puts images in the place of some of those links, but nothing exactly like you asked for. One possibility is to create your own translation files with the translations for those text items in it; you'll have to refer to Internationalization docs to see how to do it (not difficult). The catch here is that EVERYONE using the same language on that same SM installation gets the same text changes, and the changes don't carry over to other languages unless you fix all translations.
The bigger and better answer to this question is that SM is headed toward templating, and when that's done, you'll be able to do whatever you want to the interface, independent of the back end. But don't hold your breath on this one just yet.
