This in functions.php or a functionality plugin should do it just fine..
Just swap ‘Hey Hoser’ to what you need!
I’ve had it in place for a bit on my test site, works fine on 3.4 front and back end.
–EDIT –I have no idea why you would run into trouble between the front/back ends … the admin toolbar is the exact same front or back. If it’s changed on one it should be on the other
A plugin may only be checking if they’re on the admin side.
Heh, I guess that makes sense eh! – I don’t think so well first thing Monday morning!
I have since REdownloaded my site in french who’s translation of howdy is Salutations. That works for me
