 * Hey again,
    is there a possibility to change the value for the search submit 
   button? And, if yes, how can I do this? Thank your for your answer and have a
   good day Steph

 * I’m afraid there’s no easy way to change that. You can do it by using the WordPress
   core language filter ‘gettext’; [https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Filter_Reference/gettext](https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Filter_Reference/gettext)
 * Making that changeable is probably something I should do.

 * thank you again. That’s works! For everybody, who wants to do the same here the
   description:
    add to function.php following hook: /**
 * function my_text_strings( $translated_text, $text, $domain ) {
    switch ( $translated_text){
   case ‘Suche Veranstaltungen’ : $translated_text = __( ‘Suche Projekte’ ); break;}
   return $translated_text; } add_filter( ‘gettext’, ‘my_text_strings’, 20, 3 );
 * */
    >> change “case ‘….text, you want to change’ $translated_text: here you do
   your text, you want to show.
 * hopefully I could explain for everybody, who had the same problem, like I!
 * Thank you again to Joe Dolson to help me!
    Greetings Steph
