I would like to know the following:

I bought an app for my page which is able to use user data from ES and to write an activity in the stream.

http://www.corejoomla.com/products/gps-tools.html

Now I recognized that the stream is shown with an "Task" logo like e.g. Blog, Comment is shown with an Blog logo or Comment logo. Now I asked the programmer to change the Task logo to something else, maybe the name of the app or just App and not Task. Now he asked me for some kind of documentation but I do not know where to find it regarding this change....

Are you able to help?
Attached you can see a screenshot with the coloured logos (Aufgaben, Kommentare, Updates) which are meant by me. I would like to change the logo Aufgaben because this activity is only an information from an app - there is nothing to do.....or something else.....

Hello Horst,

What app did you purchase and where did you purchased it from? If they created the app, they should know how to "alter" the color

Hi Mark,

Please have a lokk at my link in my first posting. It is not only the color which needs to be changed - also the description should be changed.

Thanks

Horst

Hi,

Currently the description in the logo is in the form of language string with the format of:

COM_EASYSOCIAL_STREAM_CONTEXT_TITLE_[context]

The context name depends on what the app has set. You should search for this string "COM_EASYSOCIAL_STREAM_CONTEXT_TITLE_" in their app language file to modify this.

Hi Jason,

thanks for your feedback - I sent your information to the developer of the app. He tried to use your string but it didn't work. Maybe you can have a look at my screenshot (support forum of the developer) and support us with a fix....

Hi,

The language strings should be added into the app's language file instead of GPS's language file.

App language files is in the path of:

/administrator/language/[languagecode]/[languagecode].plg_app_user_appname.ini
