Extremely simple problem I can't solve

  • Hi guys. I’m fairly new to all this. How can I change the text of a class without going to the php files?

    Thanks in advance!

    <h3 id=”reply-title” class=”comment-reply-title”>Leave a Reply <small>Cancel reply</small></h3>

    Alright, I don’t know exactly how to explain it so I will try to show it. I have this “Leave a Reply” text. How can I change that text in the CSS editor without going into the php files of the theme?

    Hi Chokucal,

    In the grand scheme of things, you don’t use CSS to change HTML – they’re two different things, CSS is style, HTML is content. So, if your theme is done right, you can change the call for the comment form:

    But, if you’re determined to not go into the HTML/PHP, you could try to get a little sneaky with the :before pseudo-class, to add in your new text and then hide the text of the ‘comment-reply-title’ class.
