Customization beyond wp-config.php Translation tweaks
« on: February 04, 2010, 09:54:45 pm »
I wanted to get rid of the word "Podcast" in the text link for downloading an episode, and I followed the directions for adding define() calls in wp-config.php.

That works fine. However, the colon is still showing up.  I just want the "Download" link to show up by itself since I'm using CSS to style it to look like a button.

Where in the plugin code is that colon so I can remove it?

There should not be any colon printed with the download/play in new window links.

Can you reply with a link where a Colon is being printed?

Okay I got it.

The portion before and including the colon is the word Podcast + : Sorry for the confusion, I thought you meant the actual text for the download link.

The next release will include a new define where you can specify the separator character.

Code: [Select]
define("POWERPRESS_LINKS_SEPARATOR", ":" );

If you don't want to wait for the release, you can manually download and install the current development version, which should be pretty stable. Development download link: http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/powerpress.zip

Read the previous post I posted, it explains how to change the colon to anything you want.

i added the new line of code to what i already had, even though it's nearly identical to line 4:

Code: [Select]
define("POWERPRESS_LINKS_TEXT", "" );
define("POWERPRESS_PLAY_IN_NEW_WINDOW_TEXT", "" );
define("POWERPRESS_DOWNLOAD_TEXT", "" );
define("POWERPRESS_LINK_SEPARATOR", "" );
define("POWERPRESS_LINKS_SEPARATOR", "" );
define("POWERPRESS_DURATION_TEXT", "" );

with or without  the new code, the colon remains here - http://blog.thomsonsafaris.com/kilimanjaro/erica-davis-podcast - and in the blog of the original poster - http://theyettobenamedpodcast.com/.

thanks for your help!

Are you adding the lines to the top or to the bottom of the wp-config.php? IF you add them to the very bottom, below the require wp-settings.php line, then they will not apply. I would add them near the top, just make sure they are within the <?php   ..  ?> tags.

the lines are up high enough and as you can see from the link to our blog, all of the text disappeared, as desired, except for the pesky colon.

i can add or remove text via
Code: [Select]
define("POWERPRESS_LINK_SEPARATOR", "" ); but
Code: [Select]
define("POWERPRESS_LINKS_SEPARATOR", "" ); has no impact.

i appreciate your help, angelo.

Oh got it. the following is not a valid define for PowerPress, note the plural S in LINKS

Code: [Select]
define("POWERPRESS_LINKS_SEPARATOR", "" );
The define you are looking for is:

Code: [Select]
define("POWERPRESS_TEXT_SEPARATOR", "");
The "Text Separator" uses a colon by default. Sorry for the confusion.
