Changing Pre-defined group names.
This simple article will guide you on how to change the names of the default groups in phpBB3.

There are six groups installed by default in phpbb3:

Administrators
Global Moderators
Registered Users
Registered COPPA Users
Bots
Guests

This article shows you how to rename these.

Important:
All the group names are defined in language/en/common.php.
We will change the default groups as follows:

Administrators

Founders

Registered Users

Standard Users

Bots

Crawlers

Global Moderators

Super Moderators

Registered COPPA users

COPPA Users

Guests

Visitors

The format of the following instructions is explained at How to Install MODS

It is important to note that language files should be edited in a plain text editor and afterwards saved with the encoding UTF-8 without BOM

Open:

Code: Select all: language/en/common.php

Find:

Code: Select all: 'G_ADMINISTRATORS' => 'Administrators',

In-line Find and Replace with: Founders

Code: Select all: Administrators

Find:

Code: Select all: 'G_BOTS' => 'Bots',

In-line Find and Replace with: Crawlers

Code: Select all: Bots

Find:

Code: Select all: 'G_GUESTS' => 'Guests',

In-line Find and Replace with: Visitors

Code: Select all: Guests

Find:

Code: Select all: 'G_REGISTERED' => 'Registered users',

In-line Find and Replace with: Standard Users

Code: Select all: Registered users

Find:

Code: Select all: 'G_REGISTERED_COPPA' => 'Registered COPPA users',

In-line Find and Replace with: COPPA users

Code: Select all: Registered COPPA users

Find:

Code: Select all: 'G_GLOBAL_MODERATORS' => 'Global moderators',

In-line Find and Replace with: Super Moderators

Code: Select all: Global moderators

After making the changes the lines should look like this:

Code: Select all: 'G_ADMINISTRATORS' => 'Founders', 'G_BOTS' => 'Crawlers', 'G_GUESTS' => 'Visitors', 'G_REGISTERED' => 'Standard users', 'G_REGISTERED_COPPA' => 'COPPA users', 'G_GLOBAL_MODERATORS' => 'Super Moderators',
