Change Post New Thread Button Text
Hi there,
I am trying to edit my 'post new thread' button text. I want to be able to change the text to something different in each different section in the forum. How do I do this? Thanks Dave :) :confused: |
It's a phrase. If you want something different in each forum, you will need to either do a template edit and use conditions to post different text for each forum, or write a plugin that changes the phrase text for each forum.

Okay. So add new phrases, then use conditions for each forum. I will try it out. Can you give me any guidelines on using conditions!
Do I edit the newthread template? Thanks |
The Post New Thread button actually shows up on the forumdisplay.php page, so that would be the FORUMDISPLAY template.
The phrase name is post_new_thread Something like: hook location: forumdisplay_start PHP Code:

Hello again Lynne,
Not sure if it's my brain not working properly, but these are the steps I've taken. Created a phrase in my case....Post New Song. Then I have edited the post_new_thread phrase to suit my phrase I want in there. I have then edited the forumid's to suit me. however when saving the plug in, it is not working. I guess I'm missing something!!! That's what I am putting into the plug in I have created PHP Code:
|
In FORUMDISPLAY template locate <div id="above_threadlist" ..........
Locate "{vb:rawphrase post_new_thread}" and replace it with HTML Code:
<vb:if condition="$foruminfo['forumid']==28"> {vb:rawphrase post_new_song}<vb:else /> {vb:rawphrase post_new_thread}</vb:if> Haven' t tested this so if it doesn't work and you need to restore it be sure there is a space in front of {vb:rawphrase post_new_thread} |
Do not create a new phrase. You would want something like this:
PHP Code:
