Rename the word 'Forum'

Hi

Hopefully a simple question!

I am currently building a website for Lostwithiel Town which has a group called The Town Forum.

I have installed a forum on the site and unfortunately it is listed as The Town Forum. As you might guess by now, any posted comments or topics in this module might get attributed to The Town Forum!

Can anybody please tell me how I might change the title so it comes up with say Lostwithiel Speak?

Thanks

Rich

Hi

Sorry I didn't explain myself fully. I have already renamed the word in modules from Forum to Have your say but when you enter the module by pressing the link you end up at the forum page with the words right at the top....

Lostwithiel Town Forum Not

Lostwithiel Town Have your say!

Can anybody help please?

Thanks

You could clone a template set and customize the forum 'index' page in the module theme.

Better yet, just change the module language file... the smarty tag will print your statement.

Open folder newbb/language/english and you will se 4 files. Open them in a program (for example Dreamweaver) and look at the code of the files:

define("_THIS_IS_VARIABLE_","This is what is shown on your page");

Like this you should modify all the things you want.
