    Default changing header text links in admin area

    I have installed osmax - the aabox template is included and in use. I would like to change the text links (referred to as "header text links" in the source code) loccated to the left of the admin and catalog text links, as well as the info box links located in the nav menu on the left. I have looked at the main_page.tpl.php and Im not seeing where I can edit.

    Could anyone direct me to the proper files for editing?

    Thank you

    Not sure what you want to do. Seaming how much of the display is generated (dynamically created) many things are stored in the database and element are generated using a variety of files.

    If it is language/displayed text - most of that is in the /includes/language directory.

    Thanks for your reply, I apologize for not being a little clearer. When going into admin there is a bar across the top of the pages that holds the "catalog" and the "admin" link but it also has a link to aa box as well as an osc dox link. I would like to change these links but I am not sure if that is possible since this is the aabox template. These links are referred to as "header text links" in the source code of the admin/index.php.

    There is also the top box in the left hand navigation menu that holds additional links to aa box, documentation etc and I am sure these can be changed I just havent found the files to do so yet.


    Maybe my question should have been - are these links even changeable or removable since this is an aa box template?

    Thanks again,

    Hi-
    I turned it off but am not sure what to do next. These links are only visible in the admin area, not in the catalog. And I have switched the template to CSS Fluid 1 so obviously the links are contained somewhere in a seperate file just not sure wich.
