• When a male or female member updates their profile it says in the activity page: “updated his profile data”.

    I have tried to rename “his” to “their” with no luck. I found 2 instances of this message and updated both, but to no avail.
    1) akucom.pot in the lang directory and
    2) profiles.php in the /components directory.

    How do I fix this so that female members will not be offended by being called “his”.

    I have spent too much time trying to fix this and any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • If you corrected it on profiles.php, then whould work. The string is displayed there and anywhere else.

    The akucom.pot file is intended only for internationalization, and does nothing with the shown strings.

    I changed the string on the repository and will be changed in next release.

    I have done this and yet it still reads “his”.
    It is very weird because when I first did it, it showed up as “their” and then changed back. I have checked the profile page on the server and it definately says “their”. It seems completely illogical to me. But it is getting “his” from somewhere. Could it be a binary/compiled file from somewhere?

    Anyway here is what the profile.php page says.
    Here is the relevant snippet:
    ==========================

    function _aoc_wall_profile( $args ) {

    global $alkivia;

    $tdomain = $alkivia->id;

    extract($args, EXTR_SKIP);

    switch ( $object_action ) {

    case ‘update’ :

    $text = sprintf(__(‘%s updated their profile data.’, $tdomain), aoc_user_anchor($owner_id));

    break;

    case ‘image’ :

    $text = sprintf(__(‘%s selected a new profile image.’, $tdomain), aoc_user_anchor($owner_id));

    break;

    default :

    $text = $event_params[‘display’];

    }

    return $text;

    }

    ==========================

    Could be a server caching or a browser caching. Any way, this sentence has been changed on the current plugin version.
