Poorly worded English in the Quote email

Hi Max,

You can translate all the texts but if you let me know any problems we can rectify them.

Thanks,

I already posted a detailed example for the email text in your other forum.

Guys said they would incorporate it into this latest version.

But didn’t happen.

With the Sliced plugin for example you can edit the text in the quote email in the settings page.

Your plugin is not at that level yet.

So I just wanted to know is it possible for me just to run a snippet in my functionality plugin…To change the email wording…and if yes can you provide me with that snippet.

Hi Max,

you can’t change the wording via a php snippet, but as Stiofan explained, you can edit any default text via translation file, which is easier than applying a snippet.

Basically open the language file (https://github.com/AyeCode/invoicing-quotes/blob/master/languages/wpinv-quotes-en_US.po) with a software like Poedit. Change any text you want and save the file. It will give you a new mo file.

Adding that mo file to the folder wp-content/languages/plugins will modify the default text with your edited text.

This is how WordPress allows to translate website from English to another language, but it can also be use to edit strings that are not written correctly or that are not perfect for your needs.

Here you find the documentation about this of the other plugin of ours. https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/translate-core/

The process is identical.

I asked to the developers to work on allowing to modify the notifications via a UI like the plugin you mentioned. However it’ll take time before we have this ready.

Let us know how it goes for now,

Thanks

What about the terrible text in the button. Can that also be changed using the above method?

Kind Regards

Max

I’m not sure to what button you refer to, but every single text string of the plugin can be changed that way.

Thanks
