Hi,
Is it possible to change the words for adding a video, creating a group, etc? The link on the right hand side of the sub menus?

e.g. at the moment in the group section it just says 'Create' . Could it say 'Create a Group'? Same for Video 'Add a Video' rather than 'Add'.

I've looked in the language file but can't seem to find it!
Cheers
Paul

Hi,

There's a nice, fast way of finding out which language string is for displaying what.

0. navigate to a page you want to know what language is displayed where, like to groups or videos.
1. login to your site's ftp
2. navigate to /language/en-GB/
3. rename 'en-GB.com_community.ini' to something like 'en-GB.com_community.ini_bak'
4. Go back to your site, refresh and see similar to the screenshot below image.

Now you see, that 'Create' for groups is covered by the 'COM_COMMUNITY_GROUPS_CREATE'.

5. make your changes to the file, upload and replace the original - or even better you could do it with overrides: documentation.jomsocial.com/wiki/Changin...gle_Sentence_or_Word as, if you just edit the original file, you'll need to reapply all changes upon next upgrade. As the file will be overwritten by a new, fresh language file.

I hope that helps.



- Instead of saying: 'it's not working', explain the problem in detail.
- Screenshots with the URL visible in them and the problem marked are more than welcome.
- Tell us how to replicate the problem, we can't fix it if we can't find it.
- Make sure that your site/server meets JomSocial System Requirements: bit.ly/WyZyrL
- Make sure to setup JomSocial Cron Job: bit.ly/10OzfPN
- Always provide us with access details to the backend and ftp. We need it to debug problems.
- If you have a similar problem, but a solution you found isn't working, open a new thread instead of 'merging' with an existing one.

Dunno why the hell I didn't think of that! Much easier than doing a ctrl+F and looking for occurrences of words lol!

Solved! Thanks :)
