label translations

[John Paul]

Hi, I have used the following code snippet I get from another post on the fourm to translate ‘Tickets’ to ‘Places’ . Which has worked fine.
However, it will not change ‘Photo’ to ‘Grid’ or ‘Month’ to ‘Calendar’
can you advise what I need to do please.. thank you

/*
* EXAMPLE OF CHANGING ANY TEXT (STRING) IN THE EVENTS CALENDAR
* See the codex to learn more about WP text domains:
* http://codex.wordpress.org/Translating_WordPress#Localization_Technology
* Example Tribe domains: ‘tribe-events-calendar’, ‘tribe-events-calendar-pro’…
*/
function tribe_custom_theme_text ( $translations, $text, $domain ) {

// Put your custom text here in a key => value pair
// Example: ‘Text you want to change’ => ‘This is what it will be changed to’
// The text you want to change is the key, and it is case-sensitive
// The text you want to change it to is the value
// You can freely add or remove key => values, but make sure to separate them with a comma
// This example changes the label “Venue” to “Location”, and “Related Events” to “Similar Events”
$custom_text = array(
‘Tickets’ => ‘Places’,
‘Photo’ => ‘Grid’,
‘Month’ => ‘Calendar’,
);

// If this text domain starts with “tribe-“, and we have replacement text
if(strpos($domain, ‘event-‘) === 0 && array_key_exists($text, $custom_text) ) {
$text = $custom_text[$text];
}

return $text;
}
add_filter(‘gettext’, ‘tribe_custom_theme_text’, 20, 3);

Hey @John,

We have a slightly different version of that snippet available, along with some clearer instructions, on this knowledgebase article ? https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/change-the-wording-of-any-bit-of-text-or-string/

I would recommend replacing the code you’ve tried thus far with the similar-looking, but different code in that knowledgebase article.

Let me know if it works any more effectively!
