newbie question: How change 'Welcome to your Wiki' text?

Hi,

Like to change 'Welcome to your Wiki' on WebHome to something else.

Sorry, just can't see how to do it. Editing the page doesn't bring up
anything obvious. Poked around in header.vm and other templates. Not
seeing it.

Do I have to wade into building or modifying the skin for this sort of a
change?

Thanks,
Mark

In edit mode there is a "Title" input above the text area. Replace the
current text:

$msg.get("xe.home.title")

with your own title. The current title ("Welcome to your Wiki") is not
used directly because it's translated in many languages and
$msg.get(key) retrieves the translation for the current language.

Hope this helps,
Marius

Hi Marius,

Thanks very much! I did see $msg.get("xe.home.title") but I was reluctant
to plug a literal in, I figured it would be used as a key and I couldn't
(can't) see where the key is resolved. I guess if the literal doesn't work
as a key, it's used raw.

Thanks again,
Mark

Hi Mark,

What you call a "key":

$msg.get("xe.home.title")

is actually a Velocity variable. See here:

Good luck,
