Change “To view this protected post, enter the password below:” wording

I should also mention that I have tried adding the following code to my child functions.php file but there was no change. I have also tried using a string editor plugin called ‘say what’ which still didn’t update the text.

__

add_filter('the_password_form', 'doannhien_password_form');
function doannhien_password_form ($output) {

    $original_string = 'To view this protected post, enter the password below:';
    $translated_string = 'MY TRANSLATED STRING';
    $output = str_replace($original_string, $translated_string, $output);
    return $output;
}

Hi @oscarfeiven ,

normally, this snippet should work.

To find out why it doesn′t on your page is debugging work that I cannot do for you, sorry!
This is also not really related to this plugin, but to the default password protection functionality in WordPress.

You should try to find a developer who can do that.

Good luck!
