Comment section title change

  • Hello, I have an issue with finding how to change the “leave a reply” text in the comment section into “leave a comment”. I tried editing the text directly in the theme files, but the text is still showing as “leave a reply”. I also disabled the caching plugin and cleaned the cache, but the text is the same.

    For example you can check this post page and the commenting text, just scroll down below to see the comment section title:

    Thanks a lot in advance for any help on fixing that.

    Hey,
    You can use a plugin like Say What to edit these strings. See this post: https://www.kadencewp.com/knowledge-base/recommended-string-editor-say-what/
    Hope it’s helpful!

    Thanks Hannah, I appreciate your help, but it didn’t work.

    Here is what I used in Say what plugin settings:

    Original string
    Leave a Reply

    Text domain
    ascend

    Replacement string
    Leave a Comment

    Unfortunately the comment title is still “leave a reply”.

    Hmm, I’m not sure why that wouldn’t be working. You can also do this with some javascript like this:

    <script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function ($) {
$('#respond #reply-title').text('Leave a Comment');
});
</script>

    You would just need to use a header/footer output plugin (Ascend Premium has this built-in, but not Ascend free).
