    I tried to get help with these two things a couple months ago but the responses didn’t make sense to me. I added Poedit and that did not help. I went to WP for help and they tried a few things but couldn’t help either. I wasn’t ready to publish so I put it off. I am now ready to go live and hope you can help me with some simple CSS.

    1) How to change spelling of Enquiry In US it is spelt with an I. I tried poedit and WP worked on it too. Still it is spelt with an “E.” If this can not be changed can I have the word removed and just leave an email envelope symbol? Or can I change the word Enquiry to Message?

    2) On the ADD LISTING page, under ENTER LISTING DETAILS, it ask for TITLE. I want to change the word TITLE to COMPANY.

    1. Please post your URL and WP admin details and FTP details in a private reply, and we will show you how to use the language file.

    2. See 1.

    I now moved the language file to the correct folder: /public_html/wp-content/languages/plugins as explained at https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/translate-core/

    I corrected the file, because extra entries had been added, rather than existing ones translated.

    I de-activated the Endurance Cache from your host, but in the end it still is not working.

    I’ll get one of the developers to have a closer look.

    Thank you. Is this where the word “Title” will be changed to “Company” too?

    Yes, I already changed “Title” to “Company” as per https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/faqs/can-i-change-place-title-and-place-description/ but it is not taking effect for the same reason as the other translations.

    I have seen this a few times, there seems to be a site language bug sometimes that means translations dont work, sometimes you need to go to general setting and change language to a new one and then back to your main language before it works, this seemed to be the case here as it started working after that.

    Thanks,
