Change Button Text/Image

Hello,

Yes, this CSS should overwrite the plugin’s styles.

Without seeing it, I can’t really tell what’s going on.

Is the site live?

Hi Richard

Thank you for such quick response. Really appreciate your work.

I am using Buddy Boss Theme —with a child theme..–I just sent a ticket to them.

I did another test example—from below (eliminate “Vote Down”)…when I enter this code snippet through the dashboard/theme via APPEARANCE it works…it eliminates that button on every instance where I want to display it…when I put it to custom.css–nothing changes. Hummm

CODE SNIPPET
.thumbs-rating-container .thumbs-rating-down{
display: none;
}

For now I wanted to make sure I understands how to execute the changes. I think its a question for Buddy Boss. Let me dig a little more..I am learning as I go as well…Lets see.

Will keep you posted.

Site is not live but locked down.

Hi Again..Some of my problem was getting fooled by cacheing—I would make the change, expect it to show up etc –and it fooled me–so I have that under control and am getting some success.

I went thru past posts and trying some options–I am able to eliminate the down button, I can also change the font size…all good–I used the inputs from the forum.

When I added changes below–I did not get any change in the text–any ideas?

.thumbs-rating-container .thumbs-rating-up span:before{

content: ‘Thumbs Up!’ !important;
}

ALSO is this code (below) designed to change the red and green buttons to an Icon or different image? I have not be able to get that to work.

span.thumbs-rating-up::before{
font-family: FontAwesome !important;
content: ‘\f164’ !important;
}

span.thumbs-rating-down::before{
font-family: FontAwesome !important;
content: “\f165” !important;
}

Appreciate any hints.

Hey Mike,

The code seems ok, although it seems it doesn’t work.

I can’t see anything wrong with it, but with CSS it could be the stupidest thing.

I wonder if perhaps you should try another rating plugin with more customisable output. One that would allow these kind of modifications from the WordPress Dashboard.
