Changing a bit of text

[Math]

Greetings
I’ve managed to change a lot of words using the advice given on “changing any bit of text” but there’s just one i can’t seem to crack.

I want to change the “site fee plus site percentage” that community organisers view on their dashboard, to “site fee plus credit card percentage”. I don’t charge a percentage but there’s a credit card fee which is a certain percentage.
How do i approach this one?

Thanks

Hi Math.

Could you please share your Community Events form link so I can see for myself?

And could you please provide me a quick video screen capture so I know exactly where you’re seeing this?

Thank you.

I’ll also like to change “Product” to Ticket Type” in cart

For renaming things, you might benefit from the Say What plugin (third party, not guaranteed by us).

Or you could use the code snippet you’re already using for these items:

From /wp-content/plugins/the-events-calendar-community-events-tickets/src/Tribe/Main.php:

• __( ‘Site Fee: %s per order’, ‘tribe-events-community-events’ )
• __( ‘Site Fee Percentage: %s%%’, ‘tribe-events-community-events’ )

The WooCommerce cart’s table of cart items:

• _e( ‘Product’, ‘woocommerce’ ); when the is_cart() conditional is true

I hope this helps you finish your project! 🙂

Hi Cliff

I’m almost done with my project thanks to all of you for hand holding me through out.

Just to make sure i understand,
I take this code as is

__( ‘Site Fee: %s per order’, ‘tribe-events-community-events’ )
__( ‘Site Fee Percentage: %s%%’, ‘tribe-events-community-events’ )

and place it on the same snippet i’ve been using?

[Cliff]

No, that’s the actual code from our plugin… it’s in the internationalization/translation format for WordPress strings.

So you want to translate Site Fee: %s per order in the tribe-events-community-events text domain.

So the Site Fee: %s per order string is really all you need to worry about if you’re using the code snippet at the bottom of https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/change-the-wording-of-any-bit-of-text-or-string/

Hi

Thanks. i managed to change the percentage string but i’m struggling with the “Product”.

[Cliff]

Well the “Product” is in the “woocommerce” text domain so whatever code snippet you’re using — if it’s from that link I last sent you — will only target strings in our plugins’ text domains.

I’d suggest just using a WooCommerce Template Override:

• https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/template-structure/
• https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce/blob/2.6.0/templates/cart/cart.php#L36

Let me know if you get it working as desired.

[Cliff]

Math, if you have no other items in the WooCommerce cart to customize, here’s a snippet that would be even better than a template override for the cart.php file:

https://gist.github.com/cliffordp/431fe3a6d784079c9fe15bb8b205acc0

Best practice for adding custom code (like to implement a PHP snippet to modify The Events Calendar) is to create a functionality plugin, unless it’s something specific to your theme, in which case best practice is to make sure you’re using a child theme, then add the customization to your child theme’s functions.php file.

I hope this information helps!

Hi Cliff

Thanks a million for the snippet it worked perfectly. Can i use the same snippet to change product in checkout for consistency?

[Math]

This reply is private.

[Cliff]

I’m glad to hear that.

Do you want the word “Product” changed throughout your entire WooCommerce, or only on the Cart and Checkout pages?

[Math]

Hi

I think through out will be best.

[Math]

Another snippet will be great. I must say Modern Tribe support is worth every dime i paid for the plugins. Big up guys.

[Cliff]

In that case, please use this snippet instead of the other one I provided you:

https://gist.github.com/cliffordp/e7177522eac641bf2051a363a29b2af1

Let me know how it goes for you.

And thanks for the kind words! I shared them with the team. 🙂
