 * Is there a relatively easy way to change the name from buddydrive to another 
   name?

 * Try Changing the title of the BuddyDrive page in the WP page administration, 
   it should work

 * This work for the user profile but not for group tab:
 * function mb_profile_menu_tabs(){
    global $bp; $bp->bp_nav[‘buddydrive’][‘position’]
   = 50; $bp->bp_nav[‘buddydrive’][‘name’] = ‘viredrive’;
 * }
    add_action(‘bp_setup_nav’, ‘mb_profile_menu_tabs’, 201);
 * How I can change name in tab groups?

 * Hey! If you are looking for a way to change the ‘BuddyDrive’ label in the navigation,
   there is a filter that you can actually use. If you are using php 5.2 and above
   copy and paste the following code inside your theme’s functions.php
 *     ```
       /**
        * Changes default BuddyDrive Label
        */
       add_filter('buddydrive_get_name', function(){
       	return  __('Files', 'dunhakdis');
       });
       ```
   
 * Cheers!

 * If you are using a lower version of PHP:
 *     ```
       /**
        * Changes default BuddyDrive Label
        */
       add_filter('buddydrive_get_name', 'dunhakdis_buddydrive_set_name');
   
       /**
        * Callback function to 'buddydrive_get_name' filter
        */
       function dunhakdis_buddydrive_set_name() {
       	return  __('Files', 'dunhakdis');
       }
       ```
