Thanks C?dric, for the quick response.
I tried what you suggested, replacing
with
both places it appeared in the navbar template, but the forum prefix still appears on the navbar. I even tried editing the .xml file in the same way before reinstalling. Then I tried deleting the plugin and installing your code manually with the correction. Every time, your hack worked great, except for the default prefix:
forum. I'm perplexed.
If you have any other suggestions, please let me know. Thanks!
