Latest post – editing title

Hey there gajekpl,

Hope you’re well today!

What are you trying to do? If you want to change CSS of it please add the the following CSS code to Appearance >> Theme Options >> Tools >> Custom CSS:

.ticker-title {
add properties here
}

Add what ever styling you want. If you’re unsure on how to do that please explain what you’re trying to change so I can help ??

Cheers,
Bojan

Hi Bojan! Thank you for reply, I am trying to translate this text to my language so I am searching for some command or code to do it, is this hint helpful somehow?

Hey there gajekpl,

Since that text is not translatable you’ll have to make changes in the code.
The string is located in custom.js file which is located in /wp-content/themes/profitmag/js/custom.js in line 7 which looks like this:

titleText: 'LATEST POST',

I strongly suggest not editing theme core files but rather make changes in your child theme so the changes are not lost once you update the theme. Once you have child theme what you should do is create customchild.js file and copy everything from custom.js and make change to the text there.

After that create empty function.php file in your child theme and enqueue script there. All you have to do is add this to your child theme functions.php:

<?php
function custom_scripts() {
	wp_enqueue_script( 'customchild', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/customchild.js', array(), '1.0.0', true );
}

add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'custom_scripts' );
?>

Refresh the page and the text should be changed.

Hope this helps ??

Best regards,
Bojan

Hello Bojan

How to create a create customchild.js file and copy everything from custom.js…?
Thanks you for you help

Hey there naphtaly,

You can should be able to copy the file from your parent theme to your child theme and simply rename the file.

Hope this helps ??

Hello Bojan.
I’ve removed the white Band with your help in the other post..Thanks again. Now I want to Edit it, so that it appear like on parent theme with “LATEST POST” translate to “FLASH INFOS”. The problem is that, i d’ont know how to create a customchilds.js, und I can’t see custom.js when I go to appearence -> Editor on the parent theme..!
Thanks for your help..I try first time to create my own website.. Forgive me also when i don’t catch the simple things..!
Have a nice day…!

Hey again naphtaly,

Using Appearance -> Editor is not something I’d suggest since I had quite a few problems with it in the past.

To edit theme / child theme files you should use text editor for example Notepad++ (personally I’m using Sublime).

With that being said you can’t see all theme files there, you’ll have to access them via cPanel/FTP. Once you access your site files you can navigate to /wp-content/themes/profitmag/js/custom.js to find the file. I believe everything is explained above.

Alternatively if the above is too complicated, you can try changing those words with plugin such as this one here https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/real-time-find-and-replace/ which allows you to replace specific text. The only problem you can have here is that it will change all “Latest Posts” text with what ever you want so if you have it in multiple places you’ll have to use option one.

Hope this helps ??

Hi Bojan
Thanks a lot for your help…Excuse me that I take a lot of your time…!
Now I get the file customs.js. I had to download before Filezilla… But I cannot see the contain of the file… When I try to open an edit i get this message:
Sript: C:\Users……..\custom.js
Line: 15
Carct: 6
Erreur: Marker, chaine, wait number
Code: 800A0404
Source: Microsoft JScript error compilation
Is it that normal? What have I done wrong?

Thanks again

Hey again naphtaly,

What are you using to open that file? Are you using text editor as instructed in my previous post?

To edit theme / child theme files you should use text editor for example Notepad++ (personally I’m using Sublime).

HELLO Bojan
Now I’ve found how to opene the file custom.js with Notpad++… And Ich create a customchildtheme.js and a function.php in my child theme. In the coutomchildthem.js I’ve pasted the change I’ve made in custom.js and in function.php I’ve pasted the code pho you have given.
I refresh the page but nothing appear on the header.. I don’t know if it is because of zhis code css you gave me before:
.top-header-block.clearfix {
display: none;
}
Thanks a lot for your help..!

Hey again naphtaly,

I’ve checked the theme to make sure and yes you’re right, the CSS removes that part from your site so this is definitely the reason you’re not seeing any changes there.

Please try removing it or respond in the thread where that was suggested since I can’t remember what was the request there.

Best regards,
Bojan
