How can I change the text "Archives For" from the category page?

Trying to do the same thing…

Update: I was able to edit a file at
wp-content/themes/mesocolumn/lib/templates/headline.php

Line 17:

<h2 class="incat effect-1 header-title feat_tn_cat_color_<?php echo $cat_id; ?>"><?php _e('Archives for', TEMPLATE_DOMAIN); ?> <?php single_cat_title(); ?><?php if ( $paged >= 2 || $page >= 2 ) { ?> - <?php _e('Page', TEMPLATE_DOMAIN); ?> <?php echo $paged; ?><?php } ?></h2>

You can see where it says ‘Archives for’ in the first bit of php in that line. I simply took out that whole bit so it just says (”, TEMPLATE_DOMAIN). Here’s the resulting code:

<h2 class="incat effect-1 header-title feat_tn_cat_color_<?php echo $cat_id; ?>"><?php _e('', TEMPLATE_DOMAIN); ?> <?php single_cat_title(); ?><?php if ( $paged >= 2 || $page >= 2 ) { ?> - <?php _e('Page', TEMPLATE_DOMAIN); ?> <?php echo $paged; ?><?php } ?></h2>

I think if you look around in that file you’ll see other places where there are headline bars hard-coded into the theme.

Thanks a lot for taking the time to share your own experience.

I had not been able to find the file where the “Archives for” text was! Now you have saved me a lot of time ??

I’m going to change that text and see what happens. I’ll let you know ??

Cheers!
