Changing strings in themes

[William Haynes]

When writing a theme, what's the recommended way to change a few of the localization strings?

Thanks,

Will

There isn't a recommended way. I've wanted to come up with one for a long time - see the issue https://github.com/numbas/Numbas/issues/493 from 2017.

One way to do it is to just add a script file that changes keys in the localisation resources. Here's an example:

Numbas.queueScript('change-strings', ['localisation'], function() {
  Object.assign(Numbas.locale.resources['en-gb'].translation, {
    'frontpage.start': 'haway',
  });
});

Save that in your theme as files/scripts/change-strings.js.

Thank you.  It works great.
