    Hi there :)

    Should be possible if you are willing to edit some files manually.
    First a few questions:
    Do you want to change it everywhere, or just on the BasicHome or maybe just on the normal Home menu?
    All skins, or just a specific skin?

    You can look in the language file to change it system wide, but some skins BasicHome menu might still have it hardcoded.

    You did not say which skin.
    Since Plugins is not on the BasicHome of B3(w) I will presume you are using something like StreamedMP or Aeon. If that is the case, you can use the skin-included menu editor to change the "Plugin" text on the BasicHome.

    For the normal Home menu, you will have to edit your language file. Example strings_en.xml in the mediaportal\language directory.
    Looks like there are two strings for plugins. Not sure which one is used on the Home menu, but try the 1st one first:
    <String id="913" prefix="My ">Plugins</String>
    <String id="100034" prefix="My ">Plugins</String>

    My bad, I misunderstood your post then :) Yeah, these things can get complicated really quickly. I remember scrapping some of my skin-improvement-ideas because I couldn't get these cross-dependencies sorted out.
