    Hi. I’m trying to update the author section on my website from “About Andreas” to “Om Andreas”* and need some help. So far, I’ve attempted the following:

    CSS Edits: Tried using CSS in the child theme’s style.css to replace “About” with “Om”. Despite clearing all caches, the text remains unchanged.

    JavaScript Insertion: Added JavaScript in functions.php to modify the text, which partially worked but resulted in “About Om”, not what I intended.

    PHP File Search: Looked through various theme PHP files for the relevant HTML structure but couldn’t find it.

    P.S. I’m also looking to change instances where it says “by”*,”Entries by”* to a different text. Can you guide me on that as well?
    *This are to be found on the author page (/author/)

    Thanks

    Hey andersjensen055,

    Thank you for the inquiry.

    You can directly override and modify the enfold/includes/loop-about-author.php file. You’ll find the text around line 32.

    $heading = __( 'About', 'avia_framework' ) . ' ' . $name;

    The “Entries by” string can be found in the enfold/author.php file around line 24.

    $heading_s = __( 'Entries by', 'avia_framework' ) . ' ' . $name;

    Best regards,
    Ismael

    Thank you, Ismael, for pointing me in the right direction. The correct file to modify was enfold/includes/loop-about-author.php.

    As for the second string, while there wasn’t an author.php file in the Enfold folder, I managed to locate the necessary code to change through the Theme File Editor under the Appearance section in WordPress. I made the edits directly in the Enfold parent theme.

    For anyone else looking to make similar edits, you can navigate to Appearance > Theme File Editor and access the relevant strings within the Enfold parent theme to make your changes.

    Hi,

    Thanks for the update.

    If you’ve installed a child theme, you can create duplicates of the template files and override the ones in the parent theme to retain modifications after a theme update.
