    In progress How to change the "Send" button when posting

    Hi. Awsome site, but in the administration panel there is no option to change the image for the button that says "send" that acutally allows users to make posts. In my opinion it is retarded that it says "send", and I want it to say something like "Post" or "Post Now"

    Hi,

    There you could make the letters invisable and change the background behind it through CSS. Not exactly what you wanted but close.

    What is your forum version?

    Create a Javascript file, select the "In all the pages" option, paste the following, and save it. You'll have exactly what you want. You can change Post Now to whatever you want, as long as it is enclosed with the single quotes, and your new text doesn't include a single quote (meaning, Post Now is fine but Let's Dance is not).

    Code:
    $(function(){
        $('input[value="Send"]').attr('value','Post Now');
    });

    Add it to AP > Modules > Javascript codes management > Press Create a new Javascript > Add it > Mark all pages and save.

    Hi, I found this thread useful for my problem but I need help with another step for what I want to do. I would like to also have it change the color of the text on my buttons from white to black. How can I do this?

    How you did this. Is it possible to change only the image from messages. Because right now when you want to make a new message it has the image that says New Topic. I want to create my own image that says New Message and place it right there instead.
