Change button text from Courses

Change button text from Courses

Hello, thank you for reading my problem.

I use Moodle 3.10.1 with theme Adaptable.

My courses show buttons with the text " Course> "

As I need it to translate in Dutch I want to chance the text.

The text is not available in the Language customisation and I was not succesfull with changing it with CSS.

Can anybody tell me which file I can edit to change this button text?

Adaptable is only listed as compatible with up to Moodle 3.9. There may be some issues using this with Moodle 3.10.

Adaptable is an additional (third party) plugin which has an English language pack only. If all your users are Dutch-speaking you could use Moodle's language customisation to change individual English strings as required, e.g.:

Screenshot of the language customisation page editing string 'course' for file theme_adaptable.php.

Then purge caches. Then the button text should be in Dutch:

Cursus >

I'm sure the Adaptable maintainers would love someone to provide translations of the English strings in theme/adaptable/lang/en/theme_adaptable.php into another language.

Hi Leon,

thank you very much for your time and effort to answer my question.

The " purge caches" did the trick.
