Hi,

How do I change the “Register Now” button text in the calendar tooltip for EE 4?

Hi Andrea,

Please try the following code snippet:

function ee_change_register_now_button_calendar( $translated, $original, $domain ) {
 
    $strings = array(
        'Register' => 'Sign up',
    );
 
    if ( isset( $strings[$original] ) ) {
        $translations = &get_translations_for_domain( $domain );
        $translated = $translations->translate( $strings[$original] );
    }
 
    return $translated;
}
 
add_filter( 'gettext', 'ee_change_register_now_button_calendar', 10, 3 );

Change Sign Up in the code above to your new text.

It should go into your theme’s functions.php file or a site specific plugin:

Hi Lorenzo,

I inserted the snippet in the themes functions.php file but it had no affect on the button text. You can see the page here – http://boroughsofthedead.com/homepage/tours-calendar/

Try relocating it to the middle of the child theme’s functions.php file.

It should look like this:

Moved it to the top, still no change. Here is a screenshot of the code in the functions.php file –

Can you see anything wrong?

Thanks for you help

Hello,

That looks correct. Is your software up to date?

The latest version of Event Espresso 4 is 4.2.5.

Hi Andrea,

That is what I tested the sample code on so it should be working.

Could you please create a temporary WordPress admin login and a temporary SFTP/FTP login so we can take a closer look at this issue?

Please share that temporary login through the secure link below:
