I think what may be missing from string overrides is the knowledge of what string to use to make the override work. Not sure if this really should be an issue as if you are changing strings you should know what you're doing. Especially since you could be impacting things like locale or other modules that depend on those strings. Jonathan nan wich wrote:
If StringOverrides does this - and I trust Dave - then by all means use that. This is not something we need to have a duplicate module for.

Again, String Overrides module already does this and does it well. It doesn't need to go in Util or anywhere else.

You can still change on-the-fly strings. Just look at what's inside t() for a clue as to what to override.
t('@type %title has been created.', $t_args)
override "'@type %title has been created." to whatever.
I never knew that - that's really useful! However, I still think writing an addition to the Utility module that will do this through the GUI would be useful for site builders who would never see this code. I'd best get cracking...

been able to get it to change this particular string, I think because it's generated on the fly.

Jim,
String Overrides ( http://drupal.org/project/stringoverrides ) will do that. I don't recall if it has token support.

Currently the message that is shown to a user when a node is created - @type %title has been created. - seems to be hardcoded into node.module. I've just helped someone on IRC change this, but it's quite a long-winded process. Would a module be welcome? It would unset the message set on line 463 of node.pages.inc, and allow the user to set their own message on a per-nodetype basis. Integrated with Token and CCK.
