Hi,

I'm using jomsocial + JFBConnect, and I need to translate this text "had a status update on Facebook", when user update his status in Facebook, to another language, but I didn't find this text in jomsocial language file or JFBConnect,
Where can i find this text?

Thanks

That text is (incorrectly) hard-coded into our JomSocial Social-Profile plugin. You can edit the text in the /plugins/socialprofiles/jomsocial/jomsocial.php file. At around line 545, you'll see the following block with the offending text:
$stream = new stdClass();
        $stream->actor = $actor;
        $stream->headline = $actorLink . " had a status update on Facebook";
        $stream->message = $act->title;
I took a note to add that string to a language file and that *should* make it into the v5.1 release next week.

I hope that helps, but if you run into any other issues, just let us know.

Thanks,
Alex

Just wanted to update this and let you know that a language file has been added for the JomSocial profile plugin in the next release. This string will be translatable by creating your own language file or using Joomla language string overrides.

Thanks,

Glad to hear it. Just remember to watch out with the next release and make the language file change so that you won't have to worry about it again.

Thanks,
