 * I’ve been playing around with the ‘Comment’ settings with one of my client’s 
   site. I’ve managed to change the title from ‘Comment’ to ‘Review’ via the use
   of a plug-in, but for the life of me I can’t find how to change the black button
   from ‘Post Comment’ to ‘Post Review’.
 * Any help would be appreciated.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fpost-comment-button-2%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * One option could be to use the following dynamic search and replace plugin:

 * This way you do not need to touch any code

 * Hi there!
 * Such change would require to edit the source file of your theme:
 * <input name=”submit” type=”submit” id=”submit” class=”submit” value=”Post Comment”
   >
 * You need to change the value=”Post Comment” to value=”Post Review”.
 * Keep in mind if you modify this directly in your theme it will be removed with
   any update.
 * What I would advise is creating a child theme:

 * Let me know if this helps.

 * Hi Matt – where would I correct this in the source file? I have a number of .
   php files and I’ve scanned then all for any reference to “Post Comment” and have
   drawn a blank. This is the coding in the comment.php:
 * <?php
    /** * The template for displaying comments. * * This is the template that
   displays the area of the page that contains both the current comments * and the
   comment form. * * [@link](https://wordpress.org/support/users/link/) [https://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Hierarchy](https://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Hierarchy)**
   [@package](https://wordpress.org/support/users/package/) The Automobile */
 * /*
    * If the current post is protected by a password and * the visitor has not
   yet entered the password we will * return early without loading the comments.*/
   if ( post_password_required() ) { return; } ?>
 * <div id=”comments” class=”comments-area”>
 *  <?php
    // You can start editing here — including this comment! if ( have_comments()):?
   > <h2 class=”comments title”> <?php $comments_number = get_comments_number();
   if ( ‘1’ === $comments_number ) { /* translators: %s: post title */ printf( _x(‘
   One thought on “%s”’, ‘comments title’, ‘the-automobile’ ), get_the_title() );}
   else { printf( /* translators: 1: number of comments, 2: post title */ _nx(‘%
   1$s thought on “%2$s”’,’%1$s thoughts on “%2$s”’, $comments_number,’comments 
   title’,’the-automobile’), number_format_i18n( $comments_number ), get_the_title());}?
