Hello,

I would like to replace the word “question” that appears in your theme by the word “argument”. But I dont know how to do it. So I am looking for the file, where the word “question” is saved so that I can replace it anywhere in the theme? I already went trough some files but I havent found it.

Can you help me on that?

Many thanks and greetings from Germany,

Dorothee

Hello Dorothee,

You can simply achieve this by using WP translations.

  1. Edit ap.pot in language folder using poedit.net
  2. Save as “ap-xx_XX.po”. replace xx_XX with your active language. like if your site language is English US (en_US) then file name will be ap-en_US.po

This will solve your issue. And avoid changing core plugin files directly.

Hello Geetika,

the plugin is already translated in German, thats not the point. I want to rename certain words, not translate them. If I just choose to translate them, then the english word “question” will be translated in the German word for question. But I want another word there instead of question regardless the language. Do you know what I mean?
