Issue/Request:
I’m working on Yale and the World’s country pages and I have two questions.
1) How do I change the text within the Country Snapshot block so that it reads “Students at Yale” and “Scholars at Yale” instead of just “Students” and “Scholars”?
2) How do I reorganize the blocks so that the “Other Countries” block is at the very bottom right corner? (And how reorganize blocks on the right-hand column more generally, as I will have to do this for other country pages)
Thank you~
Hello Isadora,
To change the information on the Country Snapshot, you’d have to edit the content type associated with it. You can do this by going to Structure > Content Types > Country Snapshot Data > Manage Fields. This will take you to the list of fields in the content type where you can change the name in the labels.
To reorder the blocks you go to Structure > Blocks and scroll down to Sidebar Second where you can drag the crossbars to reorder you blocks accordingly. Be sure you select Save after putting them in the right order.

Thanks Josue. I was able to reorder the blocks. I also went in to change the phrasing in the Country Snapshot Data but do not see the change on the website. Does it take a while to migrate? If not, perhaps I did it incorrectly.
Many thanks,
Isadora
Hello Isadora,
If you check each field in the view under Rewrite Results you will find that some of those fields were hard coded in. You can change the title there.

Hi Josue,
I’m sorry but I cannot figure out how to get to”Rewrite Results.”

Hello Isadora,
To get to Rewrite Results you start by selecting the gear and Edit View. You then select the field in question Content: Students at Yale and click on Rewrite Results. I’ve already changed them for you so you are all set.
