How to change the word 'Thread' to 'Discussion'

[adnan2007]

Hi all.

Is there a way to change the word Thread to 'Discussion' in the forums.

Thread sounds a little technical IMO.

An example of what I'm trying to achieve

if you look at the reply button, it says 'Submit New Thread'

I would like to just change all the words 'Thread' to 'Discussion'

thx in advance.

Just make new buttons and overwrite the old ones

Actually let me be more specific.

Everywhere in the forum where there is the word thead, I would like to change it to discussion.

I mean every occurence of the word.

Is there some type of variable for this?

thx

you can do so via Phrase Manager ..
Managing Phrases (vBulletin Manual)

you will need to do a search for "thread" and change each occurrence .. yes, it will be a lot of work
