Change “Register” Text

Is it possible to change the “Register” button/link text to something else? I’m trying to change it to “Apply.” I’m assuming I’ll have to change the PHP files, but won’t that erase the changes when the plugin is updated? Or is there a way to make a “child plugin” like there is for child themes?

I just looked over this page: http://rocketgeek.com/plugins/wp-members/docs/filter-hooks/wpmem_register_form_args/

And it’s so far over my head I might be stuck with “Register.”

The filter allows you to return any values you want to change by setting the appropriate array key (shown in the documentation you linked to) to the value you want.

For example:
```
add_filter( 'wpmem_register_form_args', function( $args, $tag ) {
     $args['submit_register'] = 'Continue';
     return $args;
});
```
Were to put code snippets like this is covered here:

I’m trying to change the “Register” text below the login widget but no such luck. I’m guessing I did something wrong.
```
add_filter( 'wpmem_sb_login_args', 'my_sidebar_args' );
 
function my_sidebar_args( $args ) {
     
    $args['wpmem_sb_reg_link_str'] = 'Apply';
 
    return $args;
}
```

Alright, it looks like this might be closer to what it should be, but still isn’t quite right.
```
add_filter( 'wpmem_default_text_strings', 'my_sidebar_args' );
 
function my_sidebar_args( $args ) {
     
    $args['sb_login_register'] = 'Apply';
 
    return $args;
}
```

Here is what I’m trying to change from “Register” to “Apply”

Nevermind…that did work. I had to clear server cache. 🙂
