[Resolved] Change the Comments are closed message for closed comments

[Jurica]

Hi,

Other than copying comments.php in my child theme and modifying it, is there another way to change default message for closed comments?

I’m want to change the default text and add a link to the contact page.

Thank you.

Hi there,

you can use the gettext filter like so:

function db_change_comment_field_names( $translated_text, $text, $domain ) {

        switch ( $translated_text ) {

            case 'Comments are closed.' :

                $translated_text = __( 'ADD YOUR NEW COMMENTS CLOSED TEXT HERE', 'generatepress' );
                break;

        }

    return $translated_text;
}
add_filter( 'gettext', 'db_change_comment_field_names', 20, 3 );

Thank you!

You’re welcome
