    I am looking for a way to change the titles for the left side, vertical navigation in the dashboard admin area in wordpress.

    We are using a custom theme, and we would like to change the “options” title to something else. Im assuming that we need to edit the functions.php file, but I am not sure where.d

    Here’s what I use in my TwentyTen CRM theme. To figure out what to use for each menu item, go to /wp-admin/menu.php. I also added one for the Options page for you, changing to “Admin Tools.”

    // Change the labeling for the “Posts” menu to “Contacts”
    add_action( ‘init’, ‘crm_change_post_object_label’ );
    add_action( ‘admin_menu’, ‘crm_change_post_menu_label’ );

    function crm_change_post_menu_label() {
    global $menu;
    global $submenu;
    $menu[5][0] = ‘Contacts’;
    $menu[10][0] = ‘Files’;
    $submenu[‘edit.php’][5][0] = ‘Contacts’;
    $submenu[‘edit.php’][10][0] = ‘Add Contacts’;
    $submenu[‘edit.php’][15][0] = ‘Status’;
    $menu[80][0] = ‘Admin Tools’;
    echo ”;
    }
