Default tired of selecting "English" in the languages sect

this is a really minor and easy mod, but it's one i use everyday - i got tired of always having to click "Languages" and then select "English" everytime I wanted to change a label or text. So, I opened skin1/admin/menu_admin.tpl and added this:

Code:
{$catalogs.admin}/languages.php?language=US"]{$lng.lbl_language} - English

where i wanted it. done.

this goes well with another easy fix i did to list all products so you don't have to search for them every time.

maybe someone else will find these useful.

That is one of those things I have been meaning to do forever, thanks! You'd think that if there was only one language active you wouldn't have to select it...but this will work just fine!

I usually put this in /skin1/admin/menu_admin.tpl

Code:
<A href="{$catalogs.admin}/languages.php?language=US" class="VertMenuItems">{$lng.lbl_languages}</A><BR> &nbsp;&nbsp;&raquo;&nbsp;<A href="{$catalogs.admin}/languages.php?language=US&topic=Text&filter=welcome+message" class="VertMenuItems">Welcome Message</A><BR> &nbsp;&nbsp;&raquo;&nbsp;<A href="{$catalogs.admin}/languages.php?language=US&topic=Text&filter=Site+title+line" class="VertMenuItems">Site Title</A><BR>

thank you, thank you, thank you for this one!!!

as a reminder to newbies, create a "copy" of your files, such as the menu_admin.tpl, I copy it, then rename it with a -backup or -original on the filename, so I can easily go back if something goes astray.
