I need to change the control panel verbiage for only one artist account.

here is the scenario. I need a custom artist quota that allows advertisers to upload advertisements which will be later played when actual songs are player. Since it is an artist quota, the menu displays "songs". I want to change this to "advertisement" only for this quota. Rest everywhere it should stay same.

I am analyzing CP templates but its too confusing and I couldn't find any documentations so far. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

thats not an easy deal.

There are a couple of ways to do it but neither is simple.

The first is to alter the song.php file (which is not a good idea) and put in conditionals depending on what quota is asking to see the page.

The second is to use a modules language file and hooks.php to over-ride the default values if the user is of the quota you specified. (that might be the easiest way im thinking right now....)

and the third is to build a custom module that does the same thing as songs.php and enable it only for users in that quota, and also disable the songs from the users in that quota. In this way the new module will replace songs and the language in the songs.

Actually, I think this can be done, though not tried it in a long time !!

Copy the /config/language.cfg.php file to a new file with the quota_id in it - i.e. /config/language_2.cfg.php
Then edit the new file to define the language files in /language available to that quota -

Code

$lang['available_languages'] = array(   'english_2.lang.php' => 'English' );

Copy the /language/english.lang.php to /language/english_2.lang.php file and edit it appropriately.
