I’m developing my own theme (and plugins) and wants to be able to change the default strings on the admin screen. To be concrete, I want to change the description of the excerpt-field on the admin edit screen, which by default reads:
Excerpts are optional hand-crafted summaries of your content that can be used in your theme. Learn more about manual excerpts (link to WP Codex).
I’m not looking for a way to translate it into another language, but just a way to change the string.
Which file contains this information? I’m guessing no hooks or filters support this? I’ve been looking through the wp-include folder, without luck.
With the help of
grepas suggested in the comments by paislee, I found it. It turned out to be located here:/wp-admin/includes/meta-boxes.php
