Hello @impsubi,
This filter needs to be added in the functions.php file in your child theme.
If you are not using a child theme, you can generate it from here – https://wpastra.com/child-theme-generator/
Hi Nikhil!
Firstly, thanks for your answer. I’ve been trying to add the code into my functions.php file from my child theme. However, I didn’t manage to change any of the default strings, unfortunately.
This is what I’ve added insisde the functions.php:
<?php
function default_strings_callback( $strings ) {
// Search nothing found string
$strings[‘string-search-nothing-found’] = __( ‘ enc.’, ‘astra’ );
// Search input box placeholder
$strings[‘string-search-input-placeholder’] = __( ‘bu …’, ‘astra’ );
return $strings;
}
add_filter( ‘astra_default_strings’, ‘default_strings_callback’, 10 );
/**
* Astra Child Theme functions and definitions
*
* @link https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/basics/theme-functions/
*
* @package Astra Child
* @since 1.0.0
*/
/**
* Define Constants
*/
define( ‘ASTRA_CHILD_THEME_VERSION’, ‘1.0.0’ );
/**
* Enqueue styles
*/
function child_enqueue_styles() {
wp_enqueue_style( ‘astra-child-theme-css’, get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . ‘/style.css’, array(‘astra-theme-css’), ASTRA_CHILD_THEME_VERSION, ‘all’ );
}
add_action( ‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘child_enqueue_styles’, 15 );
Would you mind to give me a hand on that please?
Thanks!
Hello @impsubi,
Just for testing, Can you add this at the end of your functions.php This should update the string on search page
function your_prefix_default_strings_callback( $strings ) {
$strings['string-search-nothing-found-message'] = __( 'custom search page message', 'astra' );
return $strings;
}
add_filter( 'astra_default_strings', 'your_prefix_default_strings_callback', 10 );
Let me know if this works
Hi Nikhil,
Thanks a lot for your answer, I’ve been giving a try about your troubleshooting and it’s working perfectly fine! =)
This is what I have actually:
function your_prefix_default_strings_callback( $strings ) {
$strings[‘string-search-nothing-found-message’] = __( ‘my custom search page message’, ‘astra’ );
$strings[‘string-search-input-placeholder’] = __( ‘Start Typing…’, ‘astra’ );
return $strings;
}
add_filter( ‘astra_default_strings’, ‘your_prefix_default_strings_callback’, 10 );
The line regarding nothing found message was changed successfully, however I’m still unable to change the message into the placeholder from the search input box, even though I had added the line inside the code.
I’m sorry to bother you about that, but would you mind to look further into it.
Thanks again!
