how to change the previous and next post links

  • I love using this theme, it has so many brilliant features and options. ?? I have created a child theme to allow some personalisation.

    I’d now like to change the post navigation text (previous post, next post) to some custom text. How do I do this?

    On a similar theme, I would like to change the rollover flag of the “go to top” arrow in the footer to show some custom text too. How do I do that?

    Many thanks for your help ??

  • Hello,

    Can you link to the post navigation that you’re referring to so that I can see what you’re talking about?

    Thanks,
    Kevin

    Hi Kevin,
    you can see “previous post” link here (I’ll need to change “next post” link too, for when there is more than 1 post!).
    The arrow “go to top” can be seen on all pages in the footer area.

    Thanks in advance for your help

    You should be able to translate the posts using this plugin:

    Just set the text domain to “virtue” and type in the string you want to change, as well as the text you’d like to change it to.

    Wow! what a handy plugin! Thanks Kevin ??
    It doesnt seem to work on the “To the top!” flag which shows on rollover of the arrow in the footer. Any ideas where to change that? Maybe it needs a different text domain?

    That will need to be set with a script. So you should be able to add it by going to Appearance> Widgets, and adding a text widget to your topbar or footer widget area.

    Then, in the “text” side, you need to paste this script. Change the “To the top!” text to whatever you like:

    <script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(window).load(function () {
jQuery('#topcontrol').attr({title:'To the top!'});
});
</script>
