Is there any way to change the module name for "Employees"?

[robwerks]

Hi everyone, Our company uses contractors exclusively and the owner wants it changed. I've gone through the entire sugar directory and renamed every instance I could find, inside every file and folder. It still comes up "Employees" but the link is broken now. This is all on a test server of course, so I don't mind experimenting. Any ideas/suggestions?

Hello,

You just needed to extend the language directory for Employees module.

Then, run quick repair & rebuild. If that too doesnt help, remove cache/modules/Employees.

Hi David,

Could you please explain to me what exactly you mean by, "extend the language directory for Employees module"?

Thanks

Hi !

create if do not exist
following directory or file
custom/Extension/moduels/Employees/Ext/Language/en_us_lang.php
copy paste the exiting file from modules/Employees /language/en_us_lang.php
and modify labels of Employees modules

Ok I tried that, no effect...

OK, Here is how I fixed it....

Using Dreamweavers global search and replace function I searched on the sugar root directory for "employee". I then manually cycled through every instance of "employee" in every folder and file, changing ONLY the instances that were labels. For example...

'LBL_EMPLOYEES' => 'Contractors

Be sure not to change any of the code, only the labels, same as in studio.
Hope this helps someone....

Peace all
