Customizing your Helpy experience by changing text and copy in en.yml

Helpy is a fully internationalized helpdesk. What that means is that all of the "site level" text and copy come from i18n translation files. If you wanted to change the text on the home page from "How can we help?" to "Search for answers" you can do that very easily and without writing a single line of code. Simply follow the steps below:

1. Find the yml file that contains text strings for your locale. In this example we will use english:

nano config/locales/en.yml

2. Locate the string you wish to change. In our example, it is:

how_can_we_help: 'How can we help?"

3. Change this to your new value:

how_can_we_help: "Search for answers:"

4. Save the file and restart your web server.
