How do I adjust the Board title, About, and Welcome texts?

Greetings,

I'm new around these parts and have made it this far into the project.

I'm trying to edit the following, however when I modify any of the following texts where ever I can find them, I save and reload the network, but the changes wont take effect. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

The text of the content is ... inside the content folder
We are using an automatic translation via javascript, so you need to adjust the texts in there:

<usb>/PirateBox/content/locales/

or

/opt/piratebox/share/content/locales/

The PirateBox header is inside the imageboard configuration in

<usb>/PirateBox/board/config.pl

or alternatively

/opt/piratebox/share/board/config.pl

After changing the config.pl, you need to delete the index.html and open up the url with piratebox.lan/board/kareha.pl
or post something to get the corresponding page refreshed.

Ah drats I deleted the index.html from the wrong directory (PirateBox\content), is there a way I can get it back the way it was?

You will find a copy of that file in /opt/piratebox/www_content . This is the backup directory of /opt/piratebox/www/content (PirateBox/content)

best regards
Matthias

Thank you for this post and follow-up. I was experiencing the same problem. I'd edit the index.html file and it'd very briefly show the new text and refresh with the original text. I've since updated the English text file in the locales folder, and removed all of the text in the index.html file so that users won't see this ghosting. It merely fills in the page semi-naturally.

unfortunately, this JS method is the only way to get a multi-lingual UI without an increased amount of dynamic webpages, which won't load timely on embedded devices.
