Ubercart Basket

Ubercart is the most popular E-commerce solution for Drupal 6, and yet provides no option to change the American "cart" terminology used throughout the module. UC Basket is a simple module that remedies this problem (for a British audience) by changing all occurrences of the word "cart" to "basket".

What is currently covered

1. The cart URLs (/cart, /cart/checkout etc)
2. Product/teaser "Add to cart" buttons
3. The cart block (title and "View cart" link)
4. The cart page (title and "Update cart" button)
5. Checkout page and Review Order page ("Cart contents" section)
6. Update messages when user performs action on cart page (e.g. Add item / Update / Remove item)
7. Empty cart message (when remove all items from cart)

Ubercart compatibility

Tested with Ubercart 6.x-2.7 on Drupal 6.

Contrib module compatibility

The Ubercart ajax cart module forces the empty cart message back to "There are no products in your shopping cart". Follow issue here: #1431194: Allow custom empty cart message. Temporary workaround: update the hard-coded message in uc_ajax_cart.module (search for the string "There are no products in your shopping cart" and update it accordingly).

Again, with Ubercart ajax cart module: setting an alias for the /cart URL and then removing an item from your cart causes a duplicate status message to be displayed. Follow the issue here: #1429944: Duplicate message when remove item from cart. Temporary workaround: comment out the call to drupal_set_message() in uc_ajax_cart.module (search for the string "successfully removed from cart").

Alternatives

Similar functionality can be achieved by installing and configuring the String Overrides module (though you also have to manually setup some URL aliases and tweak the Ubercart settings for the "Add to cart" button text). But not only does this require more effort to setup, it is a less efficient solution.
