also you can read "Official" documentation.

and at some point you may want to see this.

after you add conf/locale.php file as specified and add your definitions. make sure you delete your ini files in the cache folder for changes to take effect.
also this may help you for other things for other common questions.

just went through and tried to even change new discussion to new topic but didn't work at all
ok great it's working. New discussion has changed to new topic. But as of now i am using a premium template called silicon. But i want to change his post comment button because it used an image instead of a text and makes it difficult for users to notice that. I have messaged him but no reply till now. Here is an image
Yea, that can happen. People sell their themes without tech support. Otherwise they would need to charge more for the theme…
You need to find out where this is happening inside the custom.css file.
To do that you need to use a web inspector browser extension, to identify where that code is inside the custom.css file.
Whenever asking for these sort of things that no one here would have experience with because they do not use that theme, you need to provide a link to the site , make a temp TestAdmin account or provide ftp credentials for someone to look at it personally … otherwise it's guessing. Or you could zip and attach your entire theme here and I am willing to install it and test it for you. Since the author does not seem to care to support his theme, bootlegging it , might be a good thing.
Find your web inspector on the website for the browser you use. Google the word web inspector if you don't know what that means.
I don't mind helping those who help themselves.

When a day or two ago when you asked the same question and were told to post question on support forum where you bought the theme.
You can't expect the author to answer within two days, a year or two after you purchased the theme.

Two expectations that can't be met.
perhaps a little more patience and an attempt to read this here:

User could use a public free theme if you can't get support for paid premium theme from author.

LMFAO!!! I am not encouraging theft… I meant it as a sarcastic comment towards the author if he ever shows up or answers questions about his theme…
If they don't want to post the theme here for fear that they would be breaking some law, they can send it to me via email. I have not intention of distributing it…
