Hi I need to change something for cb activity on the front-end (the "Whats on your mind" part)

Where is the language file?

Bye

Tim

You don't need to modify language files to change language strings anymore. See the below regarding usage of language overrides.

www.joomlapolis.com/blog/kyle/18701-language-overrides-have-arrived

You can find language keys by turning on full language debugging within CB > Configuration > Integrations then visiting the page and viewing the bottom of the page.

Awesome,

A tip though: It would be really helpful if you were to put the method to find the language keys into the override tab of the language plugin. That would help :)

Joomla override has a search engine for the output which makes it kind of self-explanatory while CB does not so an advice on how to use the override tab would be helpful...

Kudos though, your method works perfectly... as long as you have a dev. site (which a lot of inexperienced users may not have)

Yup, that's planned.

You simply supply a language key and the string for that key. Seams self-explanatory to me, but suggestions certainly welcomed. So if the key I want to override is THIS_IS_MY_STRING you'd specify that in the Key parameter. Then whatever string you want to change it to goes under String.

All perfect once you include the method on how to find the language key into the override tab.
