Hello,

I have 2 inquiries:

1- I would like to know how to change buttons texts (subscribe, favorite, submit) in forums and topics lists?
2- How to change/remove some reply links (Stick , merge ..etc)

How can I do this on my child theme, is it by copying the php files to my child theme? if yes, which files are they? OR I should have a function file created by me to do that ?

Thanks

I found that I can change them from “includes” file, in users, forums, topics (template.php) files, but how can I modify them all since they have the same name and I can’t copy them in my bbPress folder in my child theme !?

You cannot edit these things like the customizable templates in bbPress.

I guess you can either use filters to customize the text, or create a custom language file.

Here is an example of the

function rkk_custom_admin_link( $links ) {

   $links['reply'] = bbp_get_topic_reply_link( array(
      'reply_text' => __( 'Reply to this Topic',   'bbpress' ),
   ) );

   return $links;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_topic_admin_links', 'rkk_custom_admin_link' );

bbp_topic_admin_links
bbp_reply_admin_links

This post might help too.

Integrating Font Awesome Icons in bbPress

Robin showed me a function that could help modify the admin links displayed.

Here is some example code to customize the admin links.

//change admin links displayed
function change_admin_links ($r) {
$r['links'] = apply_filters( 'rw_reply_admin_links', array(
				'edit'  => bbp_get_reply_edit_link ( $r ),
				'move'  => bbp_get_reply_move_link ( $r )
			), $r['id'] );
return $r['links'] ;
}
add_filter ('bbp_reply_admin_links', 'change_admin_links' ) ;

Subscribe links text I mention a way to customize it here.

Problems overwriting defaults

Favorite links would have a similar function except the filter is probably.

bbp_before_get_topic_favorite_link_parse_args

And the actual text would be

'favorite'  => esc_html__( 'Like',   'bbpress' ),
'favorited' => esc_html__( 'Dislike', 'bbpress' )

I added the first filter in my function.php and it worked great! thanks for the help .. that was nice of you, Can you help in telling me How I can remove any link from the admin_links if I can ? or How to remove the “|” separator ?

Thanks Again
