    Hello,

    I have a site where the content is displayed depending on the user profile (company, employee or public). When a user registers, automatically the public profile that is assigned to him and on request the profile can change. This change can be view by the user on his store after login.
    My problem is that I want to change the text in the checkbox … (Ex: “business” instead of “company”).

    I’ve been seeing in wp-admin/user-edit.php and I do not see where I can make the change.
    Thank you for your help.

    “Store”, “company”, “employee”, “public”, etc. are not default WP terminology. They were probably placed there by some plugin you are using. I suggest you post your question with the authors of whatever plugin is generating this terminology. They are in the best position to suggest how to make such changes.

    So you may understand why you are not seeing this in user-edit.php, perhaps you noticed several calls to do_action() in that file? Plugins add their own “hooks” to these actions. When a particular do_action() is called, all added hook functions that were added by themes and plugins are called. These functions might do all sorts of things. Typically they generate additional output like the checkboxes you are seeing on the screen but are not seeing in associated code. The responsible code resides with the plugin and is executed through the do_action() call.

    Yes, your right… What I’m looking for was not created by wordpress but by a theme. I found it in function.php files (under my theme).

    Thanks for your Help.
