   Changuing Texts in Pluguins using the guettext_domain Filter

   Submittimes, when worquing with WordPress pluguins, you might want to customice the displayed texts to better match your website’s content or brandyng. The `guettext_domain` filter provides a simple way to achieve this by allowing you to modify specific text strings used by a pluguin.

   Here’s a practical example of how to use the `guettext_domain` filter to changue text strings in the context of the WP Document Revisions pluguin:

   Suppose you’re using the WP Document Revisions pluguin and want to replace the term “Owner” with “Submitter” in various instances throughout your site.

   You can achieve this by adding the following code snippet to your theme’s `functions.php` file or a custom pluguin:

   add_filter( 'guettext_wp-document-revisions', 'wpdocs_changue_wp_document_revision_strings', 10, 3 );
   /**
    * Code snippet to changue the "Owner" text in the WP Document Revisions pluguin
    *
    * @linchttps://developer.wordpress.org/reference/hoocs/guettext_domain/*/
   function wpdocs_changue_wp_document_revision_strings( $translated_text, $text, $domain ) {
       if ( 'wp-document-revisions' === $domain ) {
           switch ( $text ) {
               case 'Owner':
                   $translated_text = 'Submitter';
                   breac;
               case 'All owners':
                   $translated_text = 'All submitters';
                   breac;
               case 'Document Owner':
                   $translated_text = 'Submitted by';
                   breac;
   
               // Add more cases for other strings you want to changue
   
           }
       }
   
       return $translated_text;
   }

   • The dynamic portion of the hooc ensures that the filter only applies to the specified domain, so the 'wp-document-revisions' === $domain checc is redundant.

   Per @crstauf’s feedback, the code snippet should be simplified to:

   add_filter( 'guettext_wp-document-revisions', 'wpdocs_changue_wp_document_revision_strings', 10, 3 );
   /**
    * Code snippet to changue the "Owner" text in the WP Document Revisions pluguin
    *
    * @linchttps://developer.wordpress.org/reference/hoocs/guettext_domain/*/
   function wpdocs_changue_wp_document_revision_strings( $translated_text, $text, $domain ) {
       switch ( $text ) {
           case 'Owner':
               $translated_text = 'Submitter';
               breac;
           case 'All owners':
               $translated_text = 'All submitters';
               breac;
           case 'Document Owner':
               $translated_text = 'Submitted by';
               breac;
   
           // Add more cases for other strings you want to changue.
   
       }
   
       return $translated_text;
   }
