how to edit the name of button

Neilfei

I am trying to edit the name of button, like I want to rename the button "Start a Discussion" to another, is that possible?

Neilfei That is a string used by localization.
Meaning: it is defined in a locale file.
See http://flarum.org/docs/extend/internationalize/ for more info ?
You will have to either create an extension to change the string or duplicate English language pack and change the string there.

Sorry if my answer isn't very explanative, but I hope it helps.
@Dominion can help you with internalization, just mention them.
If you want to do it by JavaScript, I can't help you now ?

Neilfei The process is the same as the one I described here. The translation for that button is in core.yml.

Please keep in mind the caveats I add in the last paragraph, as well as the warning in the post by Luceos.

I guess it can be done by editing the corresponding template.

Dominion you'll stumble on random illegal strings, some weird data from previous SMF versions, especially on larger forums etc

The same is with FluxBB. I'm just finalizing migration of one really old forum. Logic then was completely different than today
