    Hello
    I would like to edit the text in the members privacy settings as it’s not great English e.g.

    List in members directory? >> Listed in the members directory
    List in member search? >> Listed in the members search?
    Allow members to send me friend request? >> Allow members to send me friend requests?
    Would you like to hide your last active time?
    Who Can See your profile? >> Who can see your profile?

    Hi,
    Thank you for using the plugin.

    Please use a translation tool such as poedit or a plugin such as Loco Translate to translate teh string.

    Hope that helps.

    Hi
    I do not want to translate the text, I want to edit the default text from within the plugin

    Hi,
    I am not suggesting the translation. You will be using the localization feature of WordPress. You do not need any extra plugin to do it. You can use poedit software for this and your changes will be retained on your upgrade too.

    The loco translate only helps with localization(generation of the localized file).

    For any of the above methods, all you need to do is create a new localization file for your site’s languages and use your texts for labels you want to change.

    Regards
