How to Change Widget Titles(e.g. Members, Who’s online, ext)?

    I have looked through all of the core files but I still can not seem to find where the widget titles are generated.

    Any ideas on how this can be done? Thanks!

    The widget titles are hardcoded at the moment. Which one do you want to change? Here’s the pattern for each:

    Members widget – /mu-plugins/bp-core/bp-core-widgets.php

    Lines 12/13 :

    register_sidebar_widget( __('Members', 'buddypress'), 'bp_core_widget_members');
    register_widget_control( __('Members', 'buddypress'), 'bp_core_widget_members_control' );

    Change ‘Members’ to ‘Whatever’

    If you have them running already they will disappear from the backend and your theme. Just put put them back again.

    Excellent, that worked perfectly. I thought that I had tried that before, but obviously, if I did, I failed miserably.

    I should be able to find the rest that I need to change from that example. Thanks for the help(again) Burt.

    Could this be added in the Buddypress Settings, in site admin – possibly under “Base profile group name” field?

    It would be nice to enter a name for each, and all places ie. ‘Members’ is mentioned it would be updated to chosen name.

    Members could be named anything – Patrons, Users, Constituents, Associates, Individuals, People etc.

    Groups could be Teams, Bands, Parties, Crowds, Communities, Gangs, Scenes etc.

    Could this be done initially via a custom translation?
