changing invoice headings
  • January 1970 Edit

    hello!

    thanks for helping me switch the language over to spanish... now, however, i have problems with the spanish titling on the invoices. the ones i can change through "invoice preferences" i have fixed, but, for example, where the invoice lists "quantity" and then "description" of items invoiced, how do i change the spelling of the heading "description?" it should be spelled with only one "o" but it has two.

    thank you!

    whoops, i forgot to add that i'd like to mess with the column widths, too. in january the gov't will cut off three zeroes from the currency (so Bs.15.000.000 will become Bs.F.15.000) and that will make things look much clearer, but for now, all of the numbers look all bunched together. can someone help me widen the columns for "unit price," "subtotal," "tax," and "total" so that it won't be so visually confusing?

    re post 1
    - you should be able to change this in tha actaul language file
    -- ie. ./lang/castellano_spanish.inc.php

    re post 2
    - you should be able to dot his via the template file for the invoice
    -- edit ./templates/invoices/default/template.tpl
    and also the css

    cheers

    is there a way of recognizing which entries in the language.php file need to be edited to get a localized version of a quotation/invoice?
    I don't need a complete translation of the simple invoices, but would like to send quotations and invoices in my customers local language.

    Hey Kai,

    only way is to have a look at the invoice template .tpl file and see what $LANG.someword variables are used and only translate them

    ./templates/default/invoices/default/teamplate.tpl (or similar - not of pc with simple invoices at the moment)

    or create your own invoice template and hard code the words in the language of your choice

    i've just started doing the simple invoices roadmap again - selecting the language per invoice sounds like good idea for the future
