The Simple Download Monitor Plugin generates various messages and phrases displayed on your website’s front end for potential customers. While these default messages work well for most users, some may prefer to customize them to better fit their site’s needs. This document outlines how you can modify these messages or text to suit your preferences.
Customizing the Text in the Simple Download Monitor Plugin
To customize the text or messages displayed by the Simple Download Monitor Plugin, you need to modify its language file. This process is similar to translating a plugin. While language files are primarily used for translations, they also allow you to adjust specific phrases to better suit your needs.
By creating a customized language file, you can control the exact text that appears in the plugin’s messages.
Example: Modifying a Specific Phrase in the Plugin
For example, if your site uses English (UK) and you want to change the text ‘Center’ to ‘Centre,’ you can create an English (UK) translation file. Use the plugin translation process to generate a simple-download-monitor-en_UK.po file, then replace ‘Zipcode’ with ‘Postcode’ within it. Afterward, generate the corresponding simple-download-monitor-en_UK.mo file and upload both files to the plugin’s language directory (wp-express-checkout/languages).
To customize the text displayed by the WP Express Checkout Plugin, follow our translation documentation. Instead of translating between languages, you’ll be modifying specific sentences or phrases to better fit your needs.
