Editing Phrases/Text Messages

From AMember Pro Manual

aMember Pro is a multi-language program. For easy translation, all phrases/messages for customer side of aMember are contained within language files inside amember/language/ folder. If you would like to change text that is displayed, do the following:

• Create a -custom file for your language in amember/language/ folder, for example for English language it will be file named amember/language/en-custom.php with the following content:

<?php
// customized phrases from en.php
defined( 'INCLUDED_AMEMBER_CONFIG' ) or die( 'Direct access is not allowed' );

• Now open file amember/language/en.php and using text search find a phrase you would like to replace. For example, you want to replace text "Membership Type" on signup page to "Subscription Type". Line in en.php will be

define ('_TPL_SIGNUP_MEMB_TYPE', 'Membership Type');

just copy entire line to the buffer of your text editor (do not change file en.php itself!);

• Then paste the line to end of the en-custom.php and edit it as you wish

define ('_TPL_SIGNUP_MEMB_TYPE', 'Subscription Type');

• Your en-custom.php will look like

<?php
// customized phrases from en.php
defined( 'INCLUDED_AMEMBER_CONFIG' ) or die( 'Direct access is not allowed' );
 
define ('_TPL_SIGNUP_MEMB_TYPE', 'Subscription Type');

• You can add any number of lines to the end of en-custom.php file.

Now visit your http://www.yoursite.com/amember/signup.php page and you should see changed text. If not, make sure you have uploaded file amember/language/en-custom.php
