Customize head menu

[bily]

Hello everyone,

I am a beginner with Alfresco and I am doing tests to customize Alfresco.
I would like to change titles of the head menu like: My dashboard, My tasks, Sites, People.

I have read about alfresco without finding this exact problem.
I read that I had to edit files like this one: components/title/user-dashboard-title.get_fr.properties,
it allows me to change some words. But I didn't find any file in "component" refering to the head-menu.

I don't know if I am in the good section of the forum, so forgive me & my english.

Ask if you need any information.
Thank you.

Hi,

The Share header can be customized in share-config-custom.xml

This is the default configuration:

   <!– Global config section –>
   <config>
      …. <!– flags –>
      
      <header>
         <app-items>
            <!– defaults: icon="{id}.png" label="header.{id}.label" description="header.{id}.description" –>
            <item type="link" id="my-dashboard">{userdashboardpage}</item>
            <item type="js" id="sites">Alfresco.module.Sites</item>
            <item type="link" id="people">/people-finder</item>

If you just want to change the labels you can also override the strings in the .properties files. The properties used for the label and description are "header.<id>.label" and "header.<id>.description" respectively. For example:

header.my-dashboard.label=My Dashboard
header.my-dashboard.description=My Dashboard
