Change ‘Archives’ Text In WordPress

Tony
December 30, 2020

Within the customize section of WordPress, you can set a specific page to be your blog page. This will show a list of your posts, known as Archives. Depending on your theme, this will display differently; in my case, the theme is styled to display my posts in a grid format.

However, the text ‘Archives’ doesn’t fit the page, and I would prefer it to show ‘Posts’. Here’s how to do it:

  1. Navigate to wordpress_directory/wp-includes
  2. Open general-template.php in Notepad (I recommend Notepad++)
  3. Ctrl+F the following: __( ‘Archives’ );
  4. Change Archives to your desired text

The final code should look something like this:

function get_the_archive_title() {
	$title  = __( 'Posts' );

Ideally you should do this with a child theme rather than the parent template because when the theme is updated these changes will be lost.
