Hi,

Firs make a backup and do not experiment with a live site.

You will have to start with the database - change the "state" field in "xdir_links" and in "xdir_mod" to be longer than 2 chars. For new instalation you can change them in sql/mysql.sql file. For installed module you may use phpmyadmin.

Then you should edit some files - not shure about all of them, but for shure you will have to change this:

addElement(new XoopsFormText(_MD_BUSSTATE 'state'22$state));


in mxdirectory\modlink.php and in mxdirectory\admin\index.php

On the other hand if two symbols is OK, then probably you can edit only language files...

it would be in mxdirectory/language/YOURLANGUAGE/main.php

edit the "State: " part in this definition:

define("_MD_BUSSTATE","State: ");

Re: editing mxdirectory fields

make changes to the file at
.../modules/mxdirectory/language/YOURLANGUAGE/main.php

open it in a text editor, and it should be apparent what to edit.
Never let a man who does not believe something can be done, talk to a man that is doing it.
