Is there anyway to change the term Discussions to Posts?

put this in conf/locale.php or create conf/locale.php if you don't have one
read up on localization in the documentation
I may not provide the completed solution you might desire, but I do try to provide honest suggestions to help you solve your issue.
That works perfectly, thanks!
Can we do comments as replies too?
@SteelVoltage
You can use that file to change any system based definition.
It's time for you to learn to do it yourself - you've seen an example...

Okay, I've done some researching and believe figured it out for the most part. However, there's one last part I can't seem to change. On the category list and on the post lists it says "# discussions" and "# comments." How would you alter that part?
$Definition['discussions']='whateveryouwantittosay';

That was the first thing I tried. However, on the category and discussion lists, where it shows the number of discussions and comments, it doesn't seem to affect it.
hmmm yea it may not be a system based definition , maybe if you added your own locale file in your theme. But I should research it more, hopefully someone may have an idea..

Yeah I'll keep looking online, it's odd.
@SteelVoltage and @vrijvlinder
taking the guesswork out....
the way to look for definitions is to search the core and/or plugins for
T(
and Translate(
It takes the guesswork and assumptions out of the equation.
1) e.g. use grep (available for windows and linux - download the vanilla source and search for grep in discussions on this forum.
grep -ri ' T(' * | grep -ri "discussions" | more
or
2) use the localedeveloper plugin or
3) download a locale that has a pretty complete translation.
Three ways to get what you want without assumptions or guesswork. and it doesn't hurt to read the documentation on localization a second and third time.

hey guys, i dont have so much time but little by little im translated all of my forum to spanish. How can i shared this translation?
I dont talk only about core items, i translated some "word boxes" for example :
"mark all read" > "marcar todos como leidos"
Last post addon > "Last post" in box to "ultimos mensajes" in the box.
I dont have problems for shared this small job but i dont know how to do
English to spanish of course!
@Konquet
you can contribute to the spanish locale. Puede contribuir al local en español, o construir otro mejor.

@SteelVoltage - I haven't tested this, but based on a glance at the code I believe what you need is:
Kevin, that worked perfectly. Thanks so very much. I appreciate everyone's help.
@SteelVoltage don't forget to give a reaction like : awesome or insightful to the people who helped !!

Thanks to everyone who spent sometime for helping us. What about forum.site.com/discussions? This will remain as it is! Is there anyway to change it to match with the definitions?
I work at a social security office and this would work very nicely at my window/cubicle...but then again it could be misconstrued a asking for tips so it is probably not allowed but it should be on a placard by the entry and the exit.
Enough said

I can't create "conf/locale.php" because of the "/". Sorry, I'm totally a noob.
By the way, could you tell me where do I have to place the file when I finish it?
