Hi

Not sure if this should be in module dev, or translation.

I'm using the ubercart module, which spells catalogue 'Catalog' (the American English way).

Myself, and my client are British, and so I was wondering if it was possible to quickly change the spelling to the english format, without having to edit the module code. I could do a global search and replace in the code for 'catalog' but this could cause some major hiccups later on.

Sure the translation stuff can do, I just dont know how. do I need to set up a new 'British English' language?

Cheers

Activate the core Locale module. Then create and activate your own "language", say "BritEnglish". Then look for the words you want to adjust/change and do it. Works in the whole Drupal installations, not only for Übercart.

I have just tried this to change to use Australian english ubercart. I wanted to change 'check' to 'cheque' as well as 'catalog' to 'catalogue'. When I search for strings containing 'check' or 'catalog' it doesn't find the ubercart ones. Am I doing something wrong?

20 strings translated, 108 (catalogue, cheque, and "ize">"ise") waiting to be approved.
