I would search inside the theme files for the text and simply replace it. It will get overwritten each time you upgrade unless you use a child theme.

Thanks ElectricFeet. after nearly an hour of searching for it. I found it. however, how do I replace it. I can get to the developer console but my changes don’t stick. Any ideas? I don’t know code at all.

Thanks ElectricFeet. could not find it.

Hmm. A quick search with EasyFind (brilliant search app for OSX) finds it in post-template.php in wp-includes. You could edit that, but it will get overwritten if you update.

Alternatively, yesterday, I discovered the plugin “Say What?“, which replaces text strings with your replacements on the fly. I found it via this page from the author.

I’ve used it on my English site to change the 404 messages for instance. (On my Italian site, I will be using the language functionality to change what I want in future, but on the English site I didn’t want to add the language files.) The plugin is incredibly simple to use and works well. The author has written 17 plugins (some very complex), so I’m trusting that it will hold up well.

It asks for a “domain” in which each string works. In the case of Customizr text, the domain is “customizr” (at least, that’s what I tried, and it works). I’m not sure what the “domain” would be in the case of wp-includes (“wp-includes”, maybe?). If you try it, let us know how you get on.

Awesome ElectricFeet! Say-What worked. I did spend an hour trying to figure out the domain. I did as you instructed with either but no success.I also tried to edit directly, wp-includes, but I could not find the php files using the theme editor. Then I tried to change the phrase using the plug-in, but did not enter a domain and it worked. The plug-in is real simple. I recommend it. Thanks again
