Hi all,

As a new vBulletin user, I've been enjoying the many benefits and features that vBulletin offers over it's primary competitor, UBB. I'm really happy with the product.

One thing I would like to change in the product is the word 'thread' to 'posts' . My users have pointed out that the word 'thread' is somewhat confusing (we run a fishing bulletin board, so I assume you understand the mentality of some of these folks...). Was wondering if there is a tutorial or an easy way to accomplish this throughout the product? I can see where the users are coming from, and would like to change this. Changing the icons is easy enough, but the wording throughout the product (columns, message displays), well, that's a little beyond me at this point. Any suggestions on how I can go about doing this?

Thanks in advance!

-Roger

The best tutorial is at:

Especially the parts on templates.
