Title: Changing the "Help" page
Post by: Sunset_1 on July 08, 2019, 09:10:10 AM
Hey
For some time now I've been wondering whether there is a possibility to change the contents of the "Help" window. I would like very much to insert my customized message there, but am not sure as to how. I hope that somebody can... help me.  ;D

Yes, basically everything you see in SMF can be changed.
The default theme holds the templates.

Where in the help section would you want to add your contents?

Well, yes and no....

the page displayed at index.php?action=help can be changed in your default theme folder by editing Help.template.php
/Themes/default/Help.template.php

However, the content of the pages linked from that page are our wiki/usermanual -- so those can not be changed.

Thanks for very quick help.
Perhaps I should have been more specific, but you guided me into the right direction anyway.
I was looking for the file Manual.language-utf8.php. I thought that it was in the installed theme files.
