Sure, you’re welcome!

Can you try adding this snippet? It essentially prevents the word “by” from being translated automatically.

add_filter('generate_post_author_output', function($output) {
    $schema_type = generate_get_schema_type();

    $byline = '<span class="byline">by <span class="author%8$s" %5$s><a class="url fn n" href="%2$s" title="%3$s" rel="author"%6$s><span class="author-name"%7$s>%4$s</span></a></span></span> ';

    if (!apply_filters('generate_post_author_link', true)) {
        $byline = '<span class="byline">by <span class="author%8$s" %5$s><span class="author-name"%7$s>%4$s</span></span></span> ';
    }

    return sprintf(
        $byline,
        '',
        esc_url(get_author_posts_url(get_the_author_meta('ID'))),
        esc_attr(sprintf(__('View all posts by %s', 'generatepress'), get_the_author())),
        esc_html(get_the_author()),
        generate_get_microdata('post-author'),
        'microdata' === $schema_type ? ' itemprop="url"' : '',
        'microdata' === $schema_type ? ' itemprop="name"' : '',
        generate_is_using_hatom() ? ' vcard' : ''
    );
});

Yes, the theme only implements the translation function (or equivalent) to make strings translatable via WordPress localization tools, it does not perform automatic machine translation of the text.

Could you provide the URL of your live site so I can verify whether the issue is reproducible on my end?

Hi there,

All theme translations are managed here:

I tested switching my test site to Korean, but I did not encounter the issue. The word still appears as “by” and is not translated. This could indicate that the problem is local to your environment.

Hi there,

If you want to host fonts locally, you can follow our documentation here:
