The 4.0.3 version actually has a new interface for language file overrides so you might want to give it a go. The search of the browser is probably not able to search in the popup. But the text you're looking for is in the translation file. Copy it in a text editor on your local computer and search for it there and you should find it. Note that there are two other ways to change that text: - Instead of going through the HikaShop language override area, you can use the Joomla language override: [ docs.joomla.org/Help39:Extensions\_Langua...nager\_Overrides\_Edit](https://docs.joomla.org/Help39:Extensions_Language_Manager_Overrides_Edit) It is compatible with HikaShop. - Since apparently your website is only in one language, you could directly edit the custom field via the menu Display>Custom fields and change the text of the title of the custom field.

Those can be edited in the HikaShop backend -> Display -> Custom fields, then look for and edit the labels of the respective fields in the "address" table. --- Need help with customisations of layouts, style or other site development?
