How to translate search elements?

Hi @edviser,

Thank you for reaching out! We don’t currently have option to translate the search form.

I’d recommend using the following code to translate the placeholder and submit button text:

add_action( 'wp_footer', 'translate_search_form_with_js' );
function translate_search_form_with_js() {
    ?>
    <script>
    document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function() {
        // Change placeholder
        var searchFields = document.querySelectorAll('.search-field');
        searchFields.forEach(function(field) {
            field.placeholder = 'поиск ...';
        });
        
        // Change submit button value
        var searchButtons = document.querySelectorAll('.search-submit');
        searchButtons.forEach(function(button) {
            button.value = 'поиск';
        });
        
    });
    </script>
    <?php
}

In case it helps, here’s our tutorial with the most common ways to add custom code like this.

For the most beginner-friendly option in that tutorial, I’d recommend using the WPCode plugin.

I hope this helps!
