Change text for "My Activities" in HC

I've seen this question posted quite a bit in the forums, so here is a little how-to on how to change the string for 'My Activities' in HC, as done on http://support.amilia.com

Here's how to change the "My Activities" text

  1. In Guide, click the Customize design icon in the sidebar
  2. Click on Edit Theme to access your template's code
  3. Click the script.js file and add the following code:

//Change string for My Activities

$('.user-nav .my-activities').html(' See my requests');
$('.sub-nav').find('li').filter(":last");

As you see, this allows you to change the string to "See my requests"

Here's how to change the text in multiple languages

Follow the steps above but use this code: 

if(currentLanguage === 'Français') {
$('.user-nav .my-activities').html(' Voir mes demandes');
$('.sub-nav').find('li').filter(":last");
}

 This automatically updates the user drop-down menu and the subnav breadcrumbs as well!

Here's what it looks like!

    It doesn't look like that code works anymore (at least with the Copenhagen Theme), so for anyone still running into this problem, I found this works!

     $('.nav-wrapper .dropdown-menu .my-activities').html('See my tickets');
     $('.sub-nav').find('li').filter(":last");

    Hi Team,

    Sorry for being naive ... I'm new to Zendesk...I'm trying to follow the steps here... but wondering what exactly you are pointing as JS tab? When I click on View Theme --> Edit Code I see something like below...

    I understand that the .hbs file refers to different pages/sections of the Help Center applications...and we got the script.js file....I don't see any thing specific as JS tab...can anybody please help me..

    Many Thanks

    Sorry for the confusion, Suman.

    There used to be a JS tab, but now it's a file. Edit the script.js file.

    Hope that helps! We'll update the instructions above.

    I see no change in the Preview mode with either of these (added to script.js)

    $('.nav-wrapper .dropdown-menu .my-activities').html('See my tickets');
    $('.sub-nav').find('li').filter(":last");

    or

    $('.user-nav .my-activities').html(' See my requests');
    $('.sub-nav').find('li').filter(":last");
