The PHP script below can be added to the WordPress Theme functions.php file. It will rename the standard “posts” section to “stories”. Replace ‘stories’/’story’ with whatever the section needs to be called.
| <?php | |
| // Rename posts in the admin menu | |
| function update_post_label() { | |
| global $menu; | |
| global $submenu; | |
| $submenu['edit.php'][5][0] = 'Story'; | |
| $submenu['edit.php'][10][0] = 'Add Story'; | |
| $submenu['edit.php'][16][0] = 'Story Tags'; | |
| $menu[5][0] = 'Stories'; | |
| } | |
| add_action( 'admin_menu', 'update_post_label' ); | |
| // Rename the buttons/labels in the Post section | |
| function update_post_name() { | |
| global $wp_post_types; | |
| $labels = &$wp_post_types['post']->labels; | |
| $labels->name = 'Stories'; | |
| $labels->singular_name = 'Story'; | |
| $labels->add_new = 'Add Story'; | |
| $labels->add_new_item = 'Add Story'; | |
| $labels->edit_item = 'Edit Story'; | |
