How to update languages and phrases?

Okay, I was trying to update one of my phrases on my vBulletin community, and it didn't show as updated - just showed the previous code, and when I looked into it further, it showed the new code, and had a checkbox that said "revert". How come it won't update? Am I doing something wrong? I was trying everything last night to change it, but it shouldn't wouldn't change... I didn't have the problem before when I updated the phrases for the welcome headers, so something doesn't seem right now.... Can anyone help me?

Hmmm, I have only updated the phrases in the welcome emails and all seemed to go fine. Which particular phrase are you trying to update?

I have no idea. Where exactly does that show up? I'm new to adminstering vB so I could test it if I knew where to look for it.

It shows up in the phrase manager.

Quote:
On this screen you can edit an existing phrase for use in the templates. You cannot change the variablename or text to insert; you can only change the translations of the phrase.
So, what does this mean exactly? You can't change its text?

That's right. You can't change the default text, just an alternate language version of it. But that doesn't help you unless you're using an alt lang.

Oh, and what we want to know when we say where does it show up, we mean on the page. Where in the page does the phrase get used? Obviously it's in the phrase manager, but where does it get loaded?

Well, on the phrase manager page itself - when you search for the term, like "notify". I figured it out, and it was because I didn't copy the text already used, and edited it, but instead, I was trying to put all new text in before, and not edit the current text. Thanks for the help everyone!
