Changing admin menu text – i.e. ‘posts’ to ‘projects’

  • Hi! I’ve used WordPress 2.5 as a CMS for a site detailing my clients projects.

    Each post contains one project so it would be far less confusing for my client if instead of going to Manage / Posts on the admin screens he went Manage / Projects.

    Is there a simple way of doing this?

  • You can edit the text in the submenus in the wp-admin/menu.php file.

    Find the section that has the submenu items for edit.php.
    They start with $submenu['edit.php']

    Find the one that creates the posts tab – it will have ‘Posts’ within single quotes. Change that text to ‘Projects’

    You can also then edit the wp-admin/edit.php file so the header on the page reads “Manage Projects” – find the text where “Manage Posts” appears and change it to “Manage Projects”
