Is there a settings to make easydiscuss work like the forums here. Listing etc. I want to use for general forums and not have resolved etc features or is this something I need to do to the code.

By default Im seeing "Ask A Question" Id prefer things to be more like forums. "Make New Post" would be more appropriate.

Point in the right direction would be great.
To switch from 'ask a question' to 'make a new' post can be made within the translation file your find at your ftp languages folder. You will find a file like this: en-GB.com_easydiscuss.ini for the component itself depending on your language set at Joomla you can then edit the file to make the text appear that you want to. If you want to change things in modules you need to find the relevant language file at the languages folder and subfolder.

You could also try to make a language override at Joomla at extensions -> languages -> overrides and search for the text you want to change.


When you go through the settings of EasyDiscuss you will find several options to switch off many things to make it more basic.

I am no developer here but as far as I know, the design you see in this forum here will be part of EasyDiscuss 4 being released soon.

Hey there,

Yep, Sabih is right. EasyDiscuss 4 will incorporate a "forum" layout which behaves pretty similar to what we have here
