I'd like to change one of the phrases used by vBulletin, namely the 'vBulletin Message' text that appears on the STANDARD_ERROR template for the phrase '$vbphrase[vbulletin_message]'.

I'd like to change it to match the name of my website, i.e. Mysite Message - How do you do this?

I had to change several phrases. However, I think its impossible to change phrases. What you have to do (or how I did it): you have to create a new phrase, but call it something almost identical to the phrase your trying to edit (EXAMPLE ONLY: lets say your tring to edit the birthday phrase. Create a new phrase and call it birthday1)

After that, go into the template or where you call the phrase and change that to the new phrase title, in my case, it would be birthday1

This is how I did it, very simple

I hope this helps :)

Here's an easier way. Open your database in PHPmyAdmin and go to the table "phrase." Find the phrase you are looking for and edit it. Permanently changed.

Thx. muscle-mustangs / 006.

I'll go for the second option - sounds much easier :).
