Loving bbPress.

We’ve set our fora (forums) to show only for logged-in users.

When a visitor is not logged in and they click on the Fora link, bbPress shows the following message:

Oh, bother! No forums were found here.

We’d rather that the message said ‘Fora are viewable by logged in members’.

How and where do we edit the ‘Oh bother!’ message? (Which might be the right CSS file?)

Thank you.

Put this in your child theme’s function file – or use

Code Snippets

//This function changes the text wherever it is quoted
function change_translate_text( $translated_text ) {
	if ( $translated_text == 'old text' ) {
	$translated_text = 'new text';
	}
	return $translated_text;
}
add_filter( 'gettext', 'change_translate_text', 20 );

and change the old text and new text to suit.
