Change the label for payment gateways?

    Is there a way to change the labels for the payment gateways (without losing the changes in an update)?

    Our potential donors are confused by the labels “PayPal” and “Offline Donation”. Many think they can’t donate because they don’t have a PayPal account and they don’t understand what Offline Donation means. We’d like to change the labels to “Credit/Debit Card or PayPal” and “Mail a Check”.

    I know that we can switch payment gateways to get around the PayPal confusion, but we’re not quite ready to do that.

    Yes you can. If you are not familiar with adding custom code to your website, then use our tutorial here:
    https://givewp.com/documentation/resources/adding-custom-functions-to-your-wordpress-website/

    Once that’s setup, enter this into the code area:

    add_filter('give_payment_gateways', 'my_custom_gateway_labels');

function my_custom_gateway_labels($gateways) {
	$gateways['offline'] = array(
		'admin_label'    => 'Offline Donations',
		'checkout_label' => __( 'Mail a Check', 'give' )
	);
	$gateways['paypal'] = array(
		'admin_label'    => 'PayPal Standard',
		'checkout_label' => __( 'Credit/Debit Card or PayPal', 'give' )
	);

    return $gateways;
}

    Let me know how that goes. Thanks!
