Make Terms and Vocabulary Editable
We'd like the option to make some of the terms and vocabulary used in Vega Discover to be editable:
At patron login, we'd like to be able to change "Passcode" to something else ("PIN", as this is the terminology we use with our patrons);
Also at login, we'd like to be able to change "Barcode" to something else ("Library Card Number")
We'd also like to update the default wording that is used when patrons choose to save their reading history, so that we can make a reference to such data being accessible to law enforcement when the patron opts in
Having some of the default terms/vocabulary would be helpful so that Vega Discover can match the terms/vocabulary that is used by individual libraries.

Oh, and I meant to say - we changed "Passcode" to "PIN" - I just found where it is. See image. It's in line 1847, if that helps you? the Barcode label is in 1840, I think?

As other comments mentioned, these are in the Vega Admin > Localization Settings > Manage Translations > English/Edit area. However, in the Edit function, the correct line/string can be hard to find. If this helps, when I open that list of translation "lines", I click in the box, Ctrl-F to open a Find box that just searches those strings. Example: In the attached screenshot, I wanted to change the search box in Reading History from saying "Search for resources" to "Search Reading History". I used the Ctrl-F/Find trick. Then I was able to find the right line to edit. Hope that helps you!

We were able to change the Barcode label in the Manage Translations area of the backend. You should be able to do the Passcode as well, although I'm not sure about the Reading History wording.

I think as far as the labels on the login form, that is controlled by the html in your login app config files (ipsso.html, etc.) - in Sierra at least. As for the Reading History, would it be possible to use the translation file to achieve the changes required?
