How to change the Filter text "select taxonomy" to "Select city"?

  • How to change the text “select taxonomy” to “Select city”?

    I have created a Custom field group
    1.Leader
    2.Program
    and I have created Select leader option in a program page by city.
    I have used the filter “filter by taxonomy”.
    Please see the screenshot. Filter By taxonomy show dropdown.
    How to change the text “select taxonomy” to “Select city”?

  • That field is used when you allow editors to select posts from multiple taxonomies, for example if you want to allow them to select from “Tags” or “Categories” on a post.

    If they can only select from “Cities” then you need to remove the “Taxonomy” from the filters setting of your post object (relationship) field.

    Although I don’t understand how the image you posted showing authors relates to “Cities”.

  • Hi, Did you ever figure this out. I think I want the same thing.
    I have two taxonomies I want them to choose from which but i want to change the wording of the option “select taxonomy” because on a front end form people don’t understand what taxonomy.
    I have tried a couple of things

    add_filter(‘the_content’, ‘s4f_acf_prepare_taxonomy’); with the function replacing the text but it did not work.

    I think it might have to do with a filter similar to this

    add_filter('acf/prepare_field/name=_post_title', 's4f_acf_prepare_title');
    
    function s4f_acf_prepare_title( $field ) {
            $field['label'] = "Goal Name";
        if ( $field ) {
            return $field;
        } else {
            exit;
        }

    I will be back to this and will post if I find a solution

  • I found how to do this with jquery

    jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
        var strNewString = $('#FIELDID').html().replace(/\Select taxonomy/g,'NEW TEXT');
        $('#FIELDID').html(strNewString);
    });

    Replace the #FIELDID with the field id this is in #acf-field_#####
    Replace the NEW TEXT with the text you want to show
    I have a custom scrip page but you could add it inside script tags on the page that is loading the form.

    I hope this helps someone as I was searching all the wrong places for this.

  • Add a wrapper id
    for me its sc_city
    then add this jquery

    $($("#sc_city option")[0]).text('Select city');

  • I updated all instances of “select taxonomy” to “Filter Results” instead using the below jquery (add this to your functions.php):

    function my_acf_input_admin_footer() {
        
        ?>
        <script type="text/javascript">
        (function($) {
            
            jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
        var strNewString = $('.acf-relationship').html().replace(/\Select taxonomy/g,'Filter Results');
        $('.acf-relationship').html(strNewString);
    });
            
        })(jQuery); 
        </script>
        <?php
                
        }
        
        add_action('acf/input/admin_footer', 'my_acf_input_admin_footer');
  • Yes you are right ?>
    <script type=”text/javascript”>
    (function($) {

    jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
    var strNewString = $(‘.acf-relationship’).html().replace(/\Select taxonomy/g,’Filter Results’);
    $(‘.acf-relationship’).html(strNewString);
    });

    })(jQuery);
    </script>
    <?php

    }
