Topic on Extension talk:ConfirmAccount

I have a very small wiki for a specific group. As part of the request account process, I require them to provide me with verifiable information proving they are in the group or otherwise has a specific interest. Also helps with spam. In a previous version of ConfirmAccount I could just edit the text RequestAccountPage.i18n.php file to change the prompts and get the user to add the information I need into the biography field.

When I upgraded to Mediawiki 1.28, I also had to reinstall ConfirmAccount. In the most recent version of ConfirmAccount, the file that I edited previously doesn't seem to exist and I can't figure out where the plain text prompt strings are stored.

Can somebody point me in the right direction?

Edit i18n/requestaccount/<lang>.json .

Better yet, just edit MediaWiki:<name of the message in lowercase> to override it.
