Wordpress Themes - WP Forum at BFA
There will be no more development for Atahualpa (or any other theme), and no support. Also no new registrations. I turned off the donation system. I may turn the forum to read only if it gets abused for spam. Unfortunately I have no time for the forum or the themes. Thanks a lot to the people who helped in all these years, especially Larry and of course: Paul. Take care and stay healthy -- Flynn, Atahualpa developer, Sep 2021

Using 3.5.3

I would like to change the text in the tool tip when hovering over the byline. Currently I have the byline setup for a link to a website and when hovering, it now say "Visit (authors) Website".

Anyone have ideas on how to change that.

Thanks in advance for help.

It is on a internal dev server right now, so I can't supply the url.

I the byline setup to link to the authors website using %author-link% in the "edit post/page info items". I would like to change the tooltip that appears when you hover over that link.

Thanks

So all you put in the by-line is
HTML Code:
%author-link%
can you provide one of the author's links that is giving the issue - you can PM it to me if you don't want to enter it here.

Sorry, juggledad, not sure what you mean. The %author-link% uses what I entered into the users profile website field. So I have that field set up as a page on the site of authors bio. I would like the change the text in the tooltip to Say " Read (authors) Bio" and not "Visit (authors) website"

Does that make sense?

Atahualpa is calling a WordPress function and it returns the entire link html. You can change the text, but you will have to edit author-template.php (it is the wp-includes folder of wordpress) and find the routine
HTML Code:
function get_the_author_link() {
	if ( get_the_author_meta('url') ) {
		return '<a href="' . get_the_author_meta('url') . '" title="' . esc_attr( sprintf(__("Visit %s’s website"), get_the_author()) ) . '" rel="external">' . get_the_author() . '</a>';
	} else {
		return get_the_author();
	}
}
it's line 139 in WP 3.0.1

Let me say this SIR! You are the MAN. If half of the people I work with were half as knowledgeable about any one subject as you are.......the world would be a better place.

Just my way of saying thank you!
