I have two questions.

1. I would like to rename the Forum tab in my group.

2. How would I add a extra tab in a group that I can link to a URL? I have multiple groups but I just wanted one of the groups to have a Tab that links elsewhere. Is that possible?

The Theme I am using is KLEO by Seventh Queen

I think you can add this to your bp-custom.php file to rename forums:
```
// change 'discuss' to whatever you want
define( 'BP_FORUMS_SLUG', 'discuss' );
```

If you want to rename reference to the Forums everywhere you’ll probably need to do that with a language file: https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/customizing/customizing-labels-messages-and-urls/

Did the stack exchange link help with the additional link you were trying to add?

Not sure that is what I am looking to do. See link to image below.

You need to use the Group Extension API

Group Extension API

Since you only want it for one group, you need to check for that group id:
```
if( bp_get_group_id() == 2 )
   bp_register_group_extension( 'Your_Group_Extension_Name' );
```

Ok I just about got this sorted out.

So I have the forum icon in the picture below.
http://www.cmpg-annex.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/Home___Post_Processing_Group___cmpg-annex1.jpg

Is it possible to send it to a different url? Below is the current code sending it to a forum. I would like to send it elsewhere. Is there something I can put into my child theme to accomplish this?
