    Description

    How you customize the labels and tooltips for A-Z List and Journal Search links in the main menu.

    For TotalCare users: please open a new support case, as you do not have access to the Back Office configuration.

    Resolution

    Login to your Primo Back Office.

    Classic UI

    For classic UI, the relevant items are defined in the code table Front End -> View Labels:

    default.mainmenu.label.atoz 

    or

    <your_view_code>.mainmenu.label.atoz

    The later one is taken over the default label.

    In classic UI, the A-Z tooltip is hardcoded ("A to Z") and cannot be changed out of the box.

    New UI

    In new UI, the relevant items are also present in the code table Front End -> View Labels and since May Release 2017, they have been defined as:

    default.nui.mainmenu.label.journalsearch 
    default.nui.mainmenu.description.journalsearch

    Also you can use your view code to differentiate your labels from default ones.

    You can read more about the new feature "Journal Search" in May Release 2017 Highlights.

    General

    Labels can be changed also directly in Views -> Tiles Configuration. Under Home Page, edit the Main menu tile.
