Hi, i am using Vantage. When I set the template to blog it show all articles with a more-link button. I want to change the text in the more-link button from “Continue reading” to a German text. Is this possible?
Hi Jo
Thanks for running Vantage.
This is unfortunately, any way you do, a more involved process than I’d like. If you’re translating the entire theme then we’d run a child theme and in the functions.php file tell the theme to find your language files in the child theme. You’d then translate Continue Reading with other theme elements.
Alternatively, to change just this item download this child theme:
https://siteorigin.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/vantage-child-content-single.zip
Un-zip on your desktop and open content-single.php with a text editor in plain text and edit line 34. Then re-zip and install via Appearance > Themes > Add New: Upload Theme.
Keep in mind that activating a child theme requires Appearance > Customize and Appearance > Menus to be re-done.
Hi Andrew,
thanks for your reply. I am not sure which file I have to translate. Is it vantage.pot? Can I than save it under vantage-de.pot? I will do this in Dreanweaver. When I save this file to annotehr folder Dreaamweaver asks me if I want to change the links inside the file. Do I have to check yes or no?
Many questions…
Jo
If you just need to translate this one term then it’ll be a lot easier to use the child theme I provided and follow those steps that I outlined.
Thanks for the advice. I think we have talked about different pages. I ment the list view of all post (template “blog”) But thanks to your advice I just changed also the line in content.php in the childtheme and anything is fine.
I also noticed that when I use the the Post Loop (PB) widget in Page Builder it ignores the “more” tag and show the full length of the text. Can I change this?
The more tag issue is unfortunately a Page Builder bug. We have a solution in the development version of Page Builder. We’ve introduced a setting to active the more tag. Please look out for this fix the next time Page Builder updates.
