Magento is very much geared to users in the US. Although I like Magento, documentation is still a bit lacking, and it is a bit of a chore to find out how to do things which many would consider straight forward or fundamental to get a site working. One such task is to change text so it is more appropriate to a UK audience.
So, to change text on the site,
- First you need to find the text you need to translate in one of the US locale CSV files in /app/locale/en_US/.
- You then need to copy this file to the /app/locale/en_GB/ directory.
- Find the line in the original text is in, and change the second column to the text you wish it to be changed to.
Like most coding – easy when you know how.
