Editing WordPress template files

Hi there,

Which one are you wanting to edit? Both?

Hi, Tom.

I would like to be able to edit both? Thank you!

For the "save my name" text, you could try this:

add_filter( 'comment_form_default_fields', function( $field ) {
    $commenter = wp_get_current_commenter();

    $consent   = empty( $commenter['comment_author_email'] ) ? '' : ' checked="checked"';

    $fields['cookies'] = '<p class="comment-form-cookies-consent"><input id="wp-comment-cookies-consent" name="wp-comment-cookies-consent" type="checkbox" value="yes"' . $consent . ' />' . '<label for="wp-comment-cookies-consent">TEXT FOR CHECKBOX HERE</label></p>';

    return $fields;
}, 20 );

I'm not sure about the subscribe text, unfortunately. Is that being added by a plugin?

No, it isn't plug-in. I use the native WordPress commenting system.

How would I use the code above? When I add it to Additional CSS in the Customizer, it has errors. Or, is it a function?

Thanks, Tom.

Strange, that checkbox shouldn't be there by default. Do you have Jetpack installed?

That code can be added using one of these methods: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-php/

Hi, Tom.

No, JetPack installed. I do have Akismet installed. Thank you.

No other plugins?

That text needs to be coming from a plugin as far as I know:

https://wordpress.org/plugins/subscribe-to-comments-reloaded/
https://wordpress.org/plugins/comment-notifier-no-spammers/
https://wordpress.org/plugins/subscribe-to-comments/

Thanks, Tom.

No problem. Let me know if you figure out where the checkbox is coming from and I might be able to help change the text :)

Hi, Tom. I will.
