Hi There,
I hope that I'm in the right area for my question - apologies if not, or that it has been discussed before.
I want to change the description in the 'Find a Member' search field. Currently it reads: "Display Name or Nicename". I want to just change the word 'Nicename' to read 'Nickname'.
Where would I go to do this, and is it easy for a non-coder to do?
Any advice / help would be great - love WPForo, its really a great product / app.
Cheers Mark
Hi Mark,
Please navigate to Dashboard > Forms > Phrases admin page, search "Display Name or Nicename", then edit this phrase and change the phrase value to "Display Name or Nickname"

Also please delete all caches before checking it.
Hi Sofy,
Thank you for coming back to me and for the solution - working perfectly!
Much appreciated
Mark
