I want to show "Messages" instead of "My Messages" on top

[SwapsRulez]

I'm using SMF 2.0 beta with custom theme named Overview.

I want to show "Messages" instead of "My Messages" on top tabs. How can i achieve that. I looked into some files, but failed.

Attaching screeny for better understanding of my problem.
Thanks in advance.

Open up your '/themes/default/languages/index.english.php' file. It has to be the one for the default theme, it will effect all of your themes so don't worry.

Replace this code:

Code Select Expand

$txt['pm_short'] = 'My Messages';

With this code:

Code Select Expand

$txt['pm_short'] = 'Messages';

Dammit LHVWB why don't you ever sleep and let me answer some questions?

I just did that very thing 2 days ago, with my "permanent upshrink" modification. I added NEW POSTS and NEW REPLIES to the top menu, then made the upshrink clicker inoperative and shrunk up. The menu bar was getting a bit wide in admin mode so I took out the "MY " in that menu tab.

I'm probably the only one on the whole planet that likes my idea.

Sorry mate.. I'm really scared now. I already did that....


$txt['modify_cancel'] = 'Cancel';
$txt['mark_read_short'] = 'Mark Read';

$txt['pm_short'] = 'Messages';
$txt['pm_menu_read'] = 'Read your messages';
$txt['pm_menu_send'] = 'Send a message';

@SwapsRulez,
Sorry, I forgot to mention that you need to clear the file cache.

You can do it from the admin pannel under "Maintenance" -> "Forum Maintenance" -> "Empty the file cache.". You have to do that after any edits to template or language files for SMF 2 Beta.
