Form placeholders not translatable

[planatstudio]

Dear Sir/Madam,

The form placeholders “Create or Find Organiser” and “Create or Find Location” seem not translatable. I cannot find these strings anywhere in the translation files.

See this image and the link attached for the location of the strings: https://prnt.sc/kj9c6y

Can you show me how to translate those, or make them translatable in the next update?

Many thanks in advance 🙂

Hi there,

Thanks for emailing support. Check out how to replace the wording of any string of text.

Thanks,

Hi Brendan,

Sorry to keep you waiting. I have time to check this now.

I have placed the function in our functions.php, as shown by the tutorial. Unfortunately, the strings I’d like to translate, are still unchanged.

The code looks like this: https://prnt.sc/kne7qj

What else can we try?

Thanks,
Rick

Hi there,

If that doesn’t work you can check out where this is translated in the .pot file or add your own translation. Check links below:
