Rename fields
By Dan Huff
How can we rename all the fields in elgg? I am not talking about just "profile fields", but "everything". For example, I want to rename the field "Friends" to "Partners", "Groups" to "Teams", "Profile" to "Background", etc. The entire revision of all field names.
Any feedback / comment / suggestion is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

You must log in to post replies.1. Check out my "following" plugin
2. To make finding the raw strings easier, the Elgg developer tools plugin has a mode for turning off string mapping. I'll have to check if I have released a version with that feature.
Cash... where can I find your plugin? Thanks.
Mouse over my avatar and a blue arrow appears. Click it to get the context menu and then select "Plugins"
cash.. with your plugin.. can I rename more fields than just the "friends" (to "following")? can i rename other fields like "group", "profile", etc? thanks
I pointed at the plugin to demonstrate how to rename the strings. You should be able to do the same for every string in Elgg.
