Well you could just remove {2} for example and replace it with the name of a location for example if your game is set in 'New York' then remove the {2} and replace it with 'New York'.
Oops, sorry. The 2nd sentence of mine was just an extra info, no related on
how can I find it myself.
I want to find it myself because not all I can guess and I planned to change all, so asking here for every variable isn't a good choice.
Take for instance the variable:
$l['welcome_back'] = "<strong>Welcome back, {1}</strong>. You last visited: {2}";
which is part of the script global.lang.php
Now do a search for the string $lang->welcome_back on your pc in the folder where your forum is stored. You will see that the search result is global.php.
When you open the script global.php in your editor, you can again do a seach for the string $lang->welcome_back to see the context in which it is used.

Nope. 
OK, it works with Apple OS, I will see whether I can find somethiing for Windows.
Can I ask are all language edits in the admin CP change to the .php file too?

Yes, but you must not be in admin. I assume you have the forum source files on your pc. Go to:
inc/languages/english
you see then a list of xxxxx.lang.php files (do not open the Admin folder), and then do the search. I just tried in Windows, and it works.

Yes, but you must not be in admin.
Just to confirm, will it effect the .php if I edit the language
through the admin CP?
Previously I used "in" so I think I've made a misunderstanding.

Nope, it still doesn't work.
By the way, I realised a pattern:
original function always:
xxx.php, in languages would be
xxx.language.php
Like Math pattern problem, just subtract away
language and I can get answer.
Is that trick accurate?

No, at least not always. For instance language variables in
global.lang.php are not only used in
global.php, but also in other
.php files.
Do you've a documentation containing all variables?
Seems like I can't trust {1} stands for website name, and {2} stands for username
Quote:Send {1} an Email
Does it mean "Send International Union an Email"?
Quote:{1} posts per day | {2} percent of total posts
International Union posts per day | XP percent of total posts
Quote:Send {1} a private message.
Send International Union a private message
Quote:Your username is invalid. Usernames have to be within {1} to {2} characters.
Your username is invalid. Usernames have to be within International Union to XP characters.
PS: International Union is my website name. XP is my username.
No, noone said that these numbers always refer to the same thing. Take a look at
http://php.net/sprintf - the MyBB function works similarly. {1}, {2}, {3}, etc. are replacements for
arguments passed to the function. For example this call:
https://github.com/mybb/mybb/blob/featur...l.php#L465 means that in the
$lang->welcome_back string (
$l['welcome_back']) {1} is
$mybb->user['username'] (username of the current user), {2} is a profile link generated by a function and {3} is
$lastvisit (which stores the last visit time as the name suggests). Either check that in the core files, but it should be easy to read most of them by context as someone suggested earlier.
