Frist, we would need to get the file “default.po” from your web server. It is located in app/Locale/eng/LC_MESSAGES.

Use any text editors to open and edit this file but make sure it can be saved in its original format with .po extension. We recommend using poedit, notepad++ or sublime text.

In edit mode, locate the phrase you would like to change and input your changes in the quotation mark of its msgtr string. Be sure not to change the original text in msgid string. Make sure you are familiar with Gettext system for proper syntax and format before making changes.

Save default.po file and upload it back to your web server after all changes have been made.

Reload your site or open it in a new browser to see changes.
