Column heading names in Easy Folder Listing module v2.9

[dgroatParticipant]

Hi Michael, I am looking to change the default column heading ‘Filename’ to something more appropriate for my site. I saw the the closed discussion thread (http://support.michaelgilkes.com/topic/column-names#post-144) but cannot locate the line of PHP code you refer to in the Helper file. As that discussion is now 5 years old I wonder whether you are now using a different method to determine the column headings. Could you please guide me to the correct file (and line number in the code) so I can make my modifications.

Thanks in advance for your help.

@dgroat. Thanks for posting. You can alter the column heading either by editing the “language/en-GB/en-GB.mod_easyfolderlisting.ini” on line 76, MOD_EFL_FILENAME=”Filename”, or you can created a Language Override (Extensions > Language(s) > Overrides > New) for the “MOD_EFL_FILENAME” key, and enter whatever text you like.

I would advise to try the built-in Override feature first before editing files. Let me know how it works out.

Thanks for the quick response. I had completely forgot about the language file / override option. Thanks. Clearly not seeing the wood for the trees.

My PHP skills are not great but if I wanted to show the folder name (the one containing the documents I am listing) instead of ‘Filename’, is that easy to do? My documents are in folders marked with the year, (e.g. 2015, 2016 and 2017).

After trying a few things, I think I have achieved this by replacing line 41 in the ‘Bootstrap.php’ file with

<th style="padding:4px;"><?php echo str_replace("images/results/","",$folder);?></th>

If there’s an easier way to do this then happy to learn. Thanks again.
