Customise theme options from functions.php of the child theme

[marius]

Our friend Google doesn't want to help me with this one:
I want to use Genesis in a multisite, with different child themes.
But I would like to rebrand Genesis from inside each child theme. So, on the dashboard menu I would like to have the name of the child theme instead of "Genesis", and also to remove the "Information" tab.

Can you help me a bit with this?

Thank you

So... the link provided by James was helpful, but, unfortunately I still didn't manage to amend the Genesis name in the menu, and also I didn't manage to remove the "Information" tab

The code for changing menu items is this one, as per article in the link:

unction customize_post_admin_menu_labels() {
global $menu;
global $submenu;
$menu[5][0] = 'Articles';
$submenu['edit.php'][5][0] = 'Articles';
$submenu['edit.php'][10][0] = 'Add Articles';
echo '';
}
add_action( 'admin_menu', 'customize_post_admin_menu_labels' );

And works like a charm. I've tried to find what's the number for Genesis, to change [5][0] to [no. for Genesis][0]
I've tried:
20 changes pages
25 changes comments
30 changes nothing
35 changes nothing
40 changes nothing
45 changes nothing
50 changes nothing
55 changes nothing
60 changes appearance
65 changes nothing
70 changes users
75 tools
80 settings

I've tried $menu[58.996][0] = 'Something'; after finding some more articles on the Internet - Still not working (Silly stuff, I know, but I've tried everything from 58.950 to 59...)

Nothing seems to be working. Same thing, I'm still stuck on "Information" panel...

Any help is much appreciated.

Best,
Marius
