1. Add the missing line to the Messages.properties file
2. Copy & edit file. Look for the original Messages.properties file in

   • Wiki Markup
     {{\[dspace-source\]/dspace-api/src/main/resources/Messages.properties}}

   • NOTE: IF you don't have the DSpace Source Code installed locally, you can also download this file via the web. Visit the below site, and browse to the proper version of DSpace, then follow the path (see above) to the proper sub-directory to download the original file.
     • http://scm.dspace.org/svn/repo/dspace/tags/
3. Copy the original Messages.properties file to this location in your local DSpace install. (NOTE: You may need to create the 'src/main/resource/' directory, as it doesn't exist by default):

   • Wiki Markup
     {{\[dspace-source\]/dspace/modules/jspui/src/main/resources}}

4. Add the missing line to Messages.properties. For example, if the text you say is ???my.key.name??? then add

   Code Block
   my.key.name = The Text to Display

5. Wiki Markup
   If necessary, you may also wish to copy/change the original JSP file. The original can be found at: {{\[dspace-source\]/dspace-jspui/dspace-jspui-webapp/src/main/webapp/}}

   • Wiki Markup
     generally put changes in here to keep original files intact (again, you may need to create the {{src/main/webapp}} directory if it doesn't exist): {{\[dspace-source\]/dspace/modules/jspui/src/main/webapp}}

6. Perform the steps in Rebuild DSpace.
