I want to use the Forum as a knowledge base and so would like to change all front end instances of the  word 'Forum'

Anyone know if this is possible and where it would be changeed? - somewhere in the backend I presume?

regards,

mark.

Yes, I think so.  Go to Admin - Languages open the Language editor and look at the Resource files of the Forum.  You can change the all localized strings.

Hi,

thanks, 
do I need to stop IIS first or anything?

NO.  If you stop the IIS you can not open your dnn instance.  You can do all over the Admin or Host in Language.

ah yes of course.

thanks, I've been through the Language Editor in Admin. - now I am starting to see the benifits and potential of DNN.

p.s.
I couldn't believe how many resource.ascx files there were. Taken nearly all day to edit all instances of 'Forum' to read 'Knowledge Base'.

However, there is one referece which I still can not find. - the title of the module ' Forum '
 - Looked inside these:

/Modules
/ModuleDefinitions (most instances of the name 'forum' was changed here)
/Portal
/DesktopModules
...but can not find it anywhere.

Anyone know if there is such a list which exists - that shows where output text is located (e.g. in which resource files)?

thanks,
mark.
