[wp-hackers] Re: $before and $after variables when filtering wp_register()

[Glenn Ansley]

Never mind. I was thinking too hard. This resolved it:

add_action( 'register' , 'register_replacement' );
function register_replacement( $link ){
	$link = str_replace('Site Admin' , 'Admin' , $link);
	return $link;
}

It was for WPMU.
