How to change the "built in" text?
Babyeater
New
So I had a little issue and I couldnt wind the answer through w3schools or google web developer. I wanted to change the title of the "all categories" page to something like "all boards", but I cant find the exact code for modifying it. I can hide the text completely using this but am unsure of how to change it.
body.Vanilla.Categories.all .DataList .Meta, .Headings .ItemHeading{
color: transparent;
opacity: 0;
}

I may not provide the completed solution you might desire, but I do try to provide honest suggestions to help you solve your issue.
All Categories is a definition. you can change it via localization.
$Definition['All Categories'] = 'All Posts';
you can alos change the look of things with
$Configuration['Vanilla']['Categories']['ShowTabs'] = FALSE;
or
$Configuration['Vanilla']['Categories']['ShowTabs'] = TRUE;
you can search the forum for localization, locale.php, as well as use locale developer plugin, and the documentation on internationalization and localaization on the wiki or the documents page - Al worth the bother of reading.

2.0.18.10 is my version.
I can change it by doing this but the effect isn't permanent.
Do you mean to say it reverts after a while?

I'm just saying by using the "edit text" option in the editor only changes the cached version of the site, but I can't do any permanent changes doing this.
Please re-read @peregrine's post. His approach uses locale definitions to change the text permanently.

Element inspectors allow you to see how changes would affect your page, but as you can see, do not actually write to the relevant file.
You need to use the information in the editor to show you where to go in the Vanilla files to edit this.
It show that the changes are being made in custom.css, which you will find in
