I was wondering if there was a way to change the tooltip text when hovering over the information icon (this has been changed from the usual 'add to cart' icon). In the image below, the text I would like to change is 'Select Options'. Thanks.
To translate or rename theme strings, you can do this via Loco Translateplugin. If you don't have it, please install and activate the plugin in your WordPress site.
Click "New Language" for the current active theme (if you didn't created it yet, otherwise ignore this step). On the new language page, choose these options – Screenshot
After that you will be redirected to the editing screen for theme translations. Before you continue with your translations make sure the current language of your site is selected – Screenshot
Follow these instructions to learn how to translate strings – Screenshot
The changes will be applied immediately – Screenshot
Note: Translation files will be saved to wp-content/themes/{theme-name}/languages folder or global directory of theme translations: wp-content/languages/themes/ (based on your choice).
If you have saved your translations inside theme folder, always save a backup of *languages/* folder (inside the theme) when there is new theme update. After you update the theme (languages folder will be replaced with an empty folder), just move the backup files you previously saved to the same languages directory and your changes will still be applied.
Thanks for the reply. I downloaded Loco and set it up as you said. I didn't receive the option to create the global languages directory though. I went in and changed the string I wanted to change and it didn't change it on the site. I've attached a screenshot of my changes to make sure I've done it properly.
I have removed the 'add to cart' icon where the hover text was causing a problem. So this issue is no longer a problem. Should I start a new ticket for other issues or post them here?
