Hi, We are trying to replace the default Topic term with Question. In the admin settings, I see we can customize any of the text on the forum, but there are too many item contains the term topic. Is there a way to batch find and replace?

Could you create a “Questions” category and install this plugin to use for those topics?

[תמונה] j3ang: but there are too many item contains the term topic. That’s why it’s probably not a good idea. You can look at https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/main/config/locales/client.en.yml to see all of them, so you could then fix them in the ux but the name of the thing you want to customize. You might do it in a plugin if you’re self hosted, or maybe contrive to do it with the API. But maybe your users won’t be confused by the word topic and you can avoid doing that.

yes, we are self-hosted. How do you suggest we write in the plugin? Should I just overwrite the locale?

I’m not sure if you can just include the things you want to override on the plugin’s locale it if you’d need to explicitly overwrite them.

Why would you want to do this? Like Jay says it is really not recommended.

It might, but I think that there are hundreds of sites that are primarily question/answer that haven’t done that. And you’re not going to have any topics anywhere that aren’t questions? There are 652 occurrences of topic in the locale, but close to half are likely in the names of the strings. And what are you doing to do about “Private Topics”. And then how are you going to explain the path of questions being /t/-/123? But I quickly added a locale to a plugin and it did override core in a quick test on my development system, so technically, it’s pretty simple.

[תמונה] pfaffman: And then how are you going to explain the path of questions being /t/-/123 ? That’s easy one. There is no need to explain, because mostly nobody sees or cares what is URL. I don’t see URL of this topic :wink: All others, especially the money, are much harder ones :rofl: (Actually no one cares if it is topic instead question)
