Change the Field Labels from “Post” to anything else

Hi rpatwall,

There isn’t a plugin setting to change the text, but there are a couple of ways to do it:

– Enable the custom form template (see plugin docs for instructions)
– Or you could find a bit of jQuery that would change the text dynamically

You can find a suitable jQuery snippet by searching for something like “jquery replace text”, or similar. Alternately, using the custom form template would enable you to customize the form (e.g., labels, placeholders, et al) however is necessary.

Let me know if I can provide any further infos, glad to help.

@rpatwall were you able to resolve? I have same challenge and not sure how to resolve. Thanks!

If you go the jQuery route, you can just target the label for which you want to change the text. For example, let’s say instead of Post Title you want to say Your Submission Title, you would do something like:

$('#user-submitted-posts label[for="user-submitted-title"]').text('Your Submission Title');
