Change misused word "posts" to "replies"

If it's going to be changed, I would sooner see this changed to "replies". Comments are a specific thing in Drupal and, while core does use comments for forum replies, it may not be that way in contrib. Plus, it's keeping more in tune with general forum terminology. I've never heard of any forum software refer to them as comments. They're either "posts" (which generally includes the initial post as well) or "replies" which are all the follow-up posts.

I agree with Michelle. "Comments" would suggest that they were actually Drupal comments, when they might not be stored that way.

"Replies" is much better than "posts", though. Can you re-roll with the word "replies" if you agree & set the issue to "needs review" so the testbot will try your patch?

Thanks, tgeller.

I don't have D7 installed so I can't literally test it, but it's just a one word change and looks fine to me on a "read through".

@amc: What is the point in tagging this "forum" when the component is already "forum.module"?

@testing bot: You're on drugs. :P How can changing one word in a string cause failure?

Michelle

you need to roll the patch from the drupal root and not from within the modules/forum directory, else the testbot won't know where to apply it

Committed to CVS HEAD. Thanks.

@Michelle So that people searching by tags and not component can find the issue. Plus it's better than a post that just says "subscribing."
