Change Payment method titles in magento
Feb 2nd
Arghh this drove me nuts.. and who came along and fixed it??? My darling partner who is still reminding me of it.
The problem? How to change the terms
Paypal Standard and Check / Money Order
to
Credit Card or Paypal and Cheque / Postal Order
I got into a dead end thinking this would be a translation problem. I added the UK translation pack.. which was actually rather handy as it turned out but still could not change the wording.
After pratting about for hours Lisa taps me on the shoulder and announces that she has done it… turns out you can call payment methods what ever you like just by changing the title in the Payment method admin section… grrr
