Change BuddyMeet name in tabs

I had this question as well.

Sorted out!
In the plugin folder there is a file called.
buddymeet.php

Open the file with a text editor of your choice and on the line
104 edit
Original:
$this->buddymeet_name = apply_filters( ‘buddymeet_name’, ‘BuddyMeet’ );

Change:
$this->buddymeet_name = apply_filters( ‘buddymeet_name’, ‘CHANGENAMEWHERE’ );

Not yet, but I’m trying to contact the Developer to help him with a few things.

Hi,

this is not the proper way to change the name of the tab. You have to implement in your theme or plugin the buddymeet_get_name filter by adding the line below:

add_filter('buddymeet_get_name', change_buddymeet_name_callback, 10);

and then just implementing the callback function that will return just the new name:

public function change_buddymeet_name_callback($name){
   return 'CHANGE_NAME_HERE';
}

Filter and Actions are actually 2 different kind of hooks that wordpress gives you to add extension points. That way you can follow any future updates without having to apply again your patch.

Thanks,
Themis

After adding your suggested code and changing the tab names, I still have it referenced as BuddyMeet under the group>Manage>(Changed Name)>BuddyMeet Settings. Did I apply the filter incorrectly or is there a code to change all BuddyMeet references in the plugin?
