Phrase Edit: needing some help

[Speysider]

When you make a new thread in a forum, instead of it reading:

Post New Thread

I want it to read:

New Scroll in Forum : (forumname here)

What do I use to make that work?

[Lynne]

You'd need to change the way the phrase is called and change the phrase to have {1} in place of the forum name (New Scroll in Forum : {1}). And then in the template, instead of:

{vb:rawphrase your_phrase}

You would have:

{vb:rawphrase your_phrase, {vb:raw forumname_variable}}

[Speysider]

That sounds very complicated. I'm not great with that kind of coding yet. Could you go through each step that I should do?

[Lynne]

I basically did. You need to Find the Phrase and replace it with this:

New Scroll in Forum : {1}

Then, in the template where it is called, replace it with something like this:

{vb:rawphrase your_phrase, {vb:raw forumname_variable}}

(You'll need to replace those variables with the correct ones from the template as I didn't look up the phrase names for you or look in the template to see what the phrase was called.)

Okay.
I'll try that out and post back here the result.

Is it in the style templates in the admin panel or in the files on the server?

I said in the template, so that is from the admin cp in the Styles & Templates > Style Manager > find style > Edit Templates
