Rename Project Task

Hello,

How to rename project task module? Module is not listing in “Rename Modules”

Thanks,

Hi,

I believe that, due to the nature of the Project Tasks Module, (i.e, it isn’t a standard module and is a part of Projects), You aren’t able to change it through the tools in the CRM.

However, You would be able to do this through the code.
You would have to change a number of language lines across a couple language files.

Assuming that you are using the english language pack:

Copy lines related to Project Tasks in the file: /modules/ProjectTask/language/en_us.lang.php
into the file at: /custom/modules/ProjectTask/language/en_us.lang.php
And modify them to what you wish them to be

Copy lines related to Project Tasks in the file: /modules/Project/Language/en_us.lang.php
to the file: /custom/Modules/project/language/en_us.lang.php
And modify them to what you wish them to be

Copy lines related to Project Tasks in the file: /modules/Emails/Language/en_us.lang.php
to the file: /custom/modules/Emails/language/en_us.lang.php
And modify them to what you wish them to be

Copy lines related to Project Tasks in the file: /modules/AM_TaskTemplates/Language/en_us.lang.php
to the file: /custom/modules/AM_TaskTemplates/language/en_us.lang.php
And modify them to what you wish them to be

There may be other locations with strings relating to Project Tasks exist, but these are the main locations and should cover most instances of the “Project Tasks” label.

I know it’s an old post, but I came about the same problem, and solved with adding few strings to /custom/include/language/[yourlanguage].lang.php .
The lines are:

$app_list_strings['moduleList']['ProjectTask'] ='YOUR CUSTOM TITLE HERE';
$app_list_strings['moduleListSingular']['ProjectTask' ]='YOUR CUSTOM TITLE HERE';
$app_list_strings['record_type_display']['ProjectTask'] ='YOUR CUSTOM TITLE HERE';
$app_strings['LBL_PROJECT_TASKS'] = 'YOUR CUSTOM TITLE HERE';

I do not know if this way is totally upgrade safe, but it’s the only way I found to change the main title of the module project task. For all other language changes, you can override the labels in custom/extension/modules/ProjectTask/Ext/Language/[yourFileName].php
