Hi,

See attached image. Where can I translate those terms into Dutch? It can’t be done through the .po and .mo files (tried, words don’t even feature there). I tried some code in functions.php to no avail. Please help! 😉

Hi There,

In order to translate those strings, you can simply use following code in your child theme’s functions.php file:

add_filter('gettext', 'x_translate_text' , 20, 3);
function x_translate_text ( $translated_text, $text, $domain ) {

  $translation = array (
    'Your Name' => 'Your New Text',
    'Your Email' => 'Your New Text',
    'Your Website' => 'Your New Text',
    'Your Comment *' => 'Your New Text'
  );

  if( isset( $translation[$text] ) ) {
    return $translation[$text];
  }

  return $translated_text;

}

Hope it helps.

It did, thanks. Just one thing: it translated ‘REAGEER’ back to ‘YOUR TEXT HERE’…

Also, how can I target that button to change the text color to white?

Hi there,

Thanks for updating.
You can add this under Custom > CSS in the Customizer.

.x-btn, .button, [type="submit"] {
  color: #fff;
}

Hope this helps.

Cheers!

Thanks.

Translation: after some left over code was removed it worked except for ‘Your Comment *’ => ‘Your New Text’ which remains in English. Any thoughts?

Hi there,

Hmm, that’s weird. You’re correctly targeting the exact string. Would you mind changing this line of code

add_filter('gettext', 'x_translate_text' , 20, 3);

to this,

add_filter('gettext', 'x_translate_text' , 99999, 3);

Just to make sure that it’s executed after any translation. And for the meantime, you can also edit the strings directly from this file \wp-content\themes\x\framework\views\ethos\wp-comments.php and copy the same file to your child theme.

Hope this helps.

[Ying-Fu LiParticipant]

Both resulted in nothing 😉
