Customize YooRecipe labels
YooRecipe has been translated into quite a few languages. Well. Here is how to update translations properly.
Introduction to Joomla labels
YooRecipe translations meet Joomla coding standards. They are all stored in UTF-8 encoded .ini files.
You could of course modify the .ini files directly. The main drawback is that, next time you update your YooRecipe version, all your modifications will be lost.
Fortunately, an elegant way to modify translation exists.
