Customising templates

Customising templates and changing the titles is super easy! Ensure that FlashMessenger is somewhere at the top of your list in application.config.php Now, copy the vendor/zf-hipsters/bootstrap-flash-messenger/view/flash-messenger folder to your eg module/application/view folder.

That's it, customise to your hearts content and they will overload the default files!
