Change Admin ‘RSVP’ Text to another text string

[Patrick Hathaway]

Hi

I’d love to find out if there is way to change the backend/admin text string of ‘RSVP’ to another text string please. I have tried using a gettext function but with no luck.
I am using WooCommerce, Events Calendar, Events Calendar Tickets & Events Calendar Tickets Pro.

Many Thanks in advance

Hi. I can help with this.

Please reference the code snippet at the very bottom of https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/change-the-wording-of-any-bit-of-text-or-string/ and, if you still need assistance, please specify if you are wanting the phrase “RSVP” changed everywhere throughout your site or just in the ticket-type selector on the wp-admin Event edit screen?

Feel free to link or screenshot to me if it’s just in selected locations.

Unfortunately, that didn’t work for changing the RSVP text. I tested on another elements (‘Venue’ => ‘Location’) which worked but it’s not working with the Select field when adding a New Ticket.

Thanks

The snippet will only work with exact strings.

Please specify which exact text you’re wanting to change, and I’ll provide you the instructions.

I am trying to change the test string RSVP to Free Tickets.
It is located here:
Events -> edit Event -> Tickets -> Add new Ticket.
There are then two checkboxes, RSVP & WooCommerce.

Many thanks

Thanks for specifying that you’re wanting to change the text here.

Not being able to change that text via the gettext filter is currently a known issue that we have on our to-do list.

Here’s a code snippet to edit that text:

Awesome, that did the trick.

Many thanks.

Great. Thanks for letting me know.
