Modern events calendar: change text

Support
#1

Hey there,
I’am using the german version of the plugin that comes with the theme. My problem is that it uses the wrong syntax for displaying the dates http://prntscr.com/n6b65z
Is there a way to get rid of the “th” and “st” etc. behind the numbers and change the word “für”?
Thanks for your help!

Hi @zerotoone.de,

Please try adding this custom JS under Theme Options > JS:

jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
	$('.mec-color.mec-table-side-day').each(function(index, el) {
		var text = $(this).text();

		$(this).text( text.trim().slice(0,-2) );
	});
});

Please add the following code under functions.php file locates in your child theme:

add_filter( 'gettext', 'x_edit_texts' );
function x_edit_texts($translation){
	$translation = str_ireplace('für', 'your text', $translation);
	return $translation;
}

Hope it helps :slight_smile:

what happens if I got a translation plugin? does this .js overwrite everything?

I think its easier to disable this elements http://prntscr.com/n6ct67
all together

Hi There @zerotoone.de

Yes, it may cause issues according to your customizations. I have checked your referenced link and it seems that you already hide those elements using custom CSS.

Thanks!

Is it the right way? just display:none; ?

Hello @zerotoone.de

Please be advised that this code is a PHP code that should be added in the child theme’s functions.php file

add_filter( 'gettext', 'x_edit_texts' );
function x_edit_texts($translation){
  $translation = str_ireplace('für', 'your text', $translation);
  return $translation;
}

Adding display:none; is correct way if you want to hide something from plain sight.

Hope this helps.
