Support Forum
First of all, thank you for a fantastic forum plugin.
Now my queries, in the previous versions, you are able to remove the icon texts, i.e. profile, members etc. How do I remove them in version 5?
Also, I have heavily changed my theme to display the different headings like other forums, i.e. Topics, Posts, First Post, Last Post columns etc. I have noticed that if I remove some text, I am left with the : symbol. I have discovered that this is in the core files and I do not wish to edit these files. Is there a way to remove the : from sp_TopicIndexFirstPost and sp_TopicIndexLastPost from the theme files?
1 - Text on buttons: At least I assume you mean the text on buttons. Yu have obviously already been looking through the code so that's a good start.
V5 is now theme driven. So if you go to the templates and find - for example - the spHead template you will see all the calls for the header display elements including the labels that are passed. These are for button labels and for tooltips on the buttons. So you can just remove them if you do not want any text. You can also - should you want to - change the buttons for links and as soon as we are able over the next few weeks we will be documenting all of this in a new codex.
2 - Those pesky colons: While probably a fringe case you raise a damn good point. Those colons should be in the theme template and NOT in the core code. I will open a ticket now and see if we can change that quickly before release. The main issue there is that we can not place the colons in the string of text but we can concatenate them in the labels so they can be easily changed or removed. So - will be done our end.
As always - we recommend that you create your own theme to save it from future updates. We will have a codex article on that soon as well!

Thank you for the quick response.
I've managed to remove the text next to the buttons now. Didn't think it was that simple and I have looked in the sp_head template before but couldn't find anything, guess it was one of those days as I have been making huge changes.
Its quite strange with the colons. I've managed to remove the colons from the counts (i.e. TopicIndexViewCount) by changing the stack to 1. If a similar approach could be done for the first/last poster, then that would be great.
Thank you again for a wonderful plugin. Keep up the good work.
