 It's best not to ask too many questions like that on the forum 😊, just accept the software is what it is and use it as best you can.

You can replace the stock information with one of the add-ons if you like.

In my setup I *can*  change it from the anmin panel, allthoud you have to take care not to remove any PHP characters.

I can do it from Tools>Define Languages.

You would still have to find out which language file you need to edit, but Zahid already pointed you in the right direction.....:-)

Yes but in stock osC define languages is just a list of files! nothinng to edit just a list. You need aditional add-on's to edit in admin. So please post which add-on you are using so others will know what to use.

It is possible to edit the language files in Admin.

It is a core function, no add-on needed..

admin : tools : define languages -> click on file to edit.

I just checked and found that on my local teststores under windows xampp it doesn't work. Maybe a permissions issue?

But on unix server it works.

@honda4 is correct here Zahid. 
The "list" is a list of files, find the one you want to change, click on it (and in a correctly set up shop) you can change it. 
This has been built in since Day 1 of osCommerce.

OP:
Experiment and find out for yourself what the software can do...

I stand corrected it can be edited and it works! 😊 So why all the add-on's for editing these files? Could it be that I'm not the only stupid user that has never used this function?

A simple edit statment or  button would make things a bit clearer and silly fools like me might actualy be able to use it.

😂 Ok I understand now why add-ons are made. The Define Languages opens the PHP file for direct edit!  Not a good idea as a silly mistake could brake the whole site!!
