I really like the coogee theme for WordPress (it’s the one I use). However, a few annoying typos appear in the theme. These typos can detract from the professional image you wish to impress upon the visitors to your website. Two examples of typos are “Add you comment” and “no comment untill now”.
To fix these, this is what I did.
The coogee theme files are saved in the following WordPress folder on your web server. If you didn’t install WordPress to a blog sub-folder ignore the reference to it in the path below.
/blog/wp-content/themes/coogee/
Using FTP, I downloaded all of the files from this folder to a temporary location on my computer. I searched the files for all occurrences of the typos that I wanted to correct. I recommend TextPad for anything to do with searching or manipulating text files.
I easily located the files and the typos in them. I then opened these files and corrected the typos but was careful not to alter any other text in the files!
“Add you comment” was contained in the file index.php
“no comment untill now” was contained in the file comments.php
Tip: before editing the individual files you may wish to save back-ups of them in case anything goes wrong (e.g., index.php.BAK and comments.php.BAK).
I then then saved the updated files preserving the same filenames (i.e., I saved overtop the original files). Using FTP, I uploaded the files from the temporary location on my computer to the same folder on my webserver mentioned above, over-writing the older (uncorrected) files when prompted.
That’s that! I edited these files as described above with no ill effects on the functioning of my blog.
