AgentPress Listing Loop Filter Modification

[dmor71]

In need help to filter the AgentPress Loop to change the text from "View Listing" to "Book Now" on the archive listing page/homepage. You can see the site here https://webclient.co/running

I can see where to change the text in the plugin but I can't figure out how to write a filter for my child theme functions.php file so that it won't revert back after a plugin update. Thanks. Below is the loop code from the plugin.

<?php
class AgentPress_Featured_Listings_Widget extends WP_Widget {

	function __construct() {
		$widget_ops = array( 'classname' => 'featured-listings', 'description' => __( 'Display grid-style featured listings', 'agentpress-listings' ) );
		$control_ops = array( 'width' => 300, 'height' => 350 );
		parent::__construct( 'featured-listings', __( 'AgentPress - Featured Listings', 'agentpress-listings' ), $widget_ops, $control_ops );
	}

	function widget( $args, $instance ) {
	
		/** defaults */
		$instance = wp_parse_args( $instance, array(
			'title'          => '',
			'posts_per_page' => 10
		) );
	
		extract( $args );
		
		echo $before_widget;
		
			if ( ! empty( $instance['title'] ) ) {
				echo $before_title . apply_filters( 'widget_title', $instance['title'], $instance, $this->id_base ) . $after_title;
			}
			
			$toggle = ''; /** for left/right class */
			
			$query_args = array(
				'post_type'      => 'listing',
				'posts_per_page' => $instance['posts_per_page'],
				'paged'          => get_query_var('paged') ? get_query_var('paged') : 1
			);
			
			query_posts( $query_args );
			if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();

				//* initialze the $loop variable
				$loop        = '';

				//* Pull all the listing information
				$custom_text = genesis_get_custom_field( '_listing_text' );
				$price       = genesis_get_custom_field( '_listing_price' );
				$address     = genesis_get_custom_field( '_listing_address' );
				$city        = genesis_get_custom_field( '_listing_city' );
				$state       = genesis_get_custom_field( '_listing_state' );
				$zip         = genesis_get_custom_field( '_listing_zip' );

				$loop .= sprintf( '<a href="%s">%s</a>', get_permalink(), genesis_get_image( array( 'size' => 'properties' ) ) );

				if ( $price ) {
					$loop .= sprintf( '<span class="listing-price">%s</span>', $price );
				}

				if ( strlen( $custom_text ) ) {
					$loop .= sprintf( '<span class="listing-text">%s</span>', esc_html( $custom_text ) );
				}

				if ( $address ) {
					$loop .= sprintf( '<span class="listing-address">%s</span>', $address );
				}
				
				if ( $city || $state || $zip ) {

					//* count number of completed fields
					$pass = count( array_filter( array( $city, $state, $zip ) ) );

					//* If only 1 field filled out, no comma
					if ( 1 == $pass ) {
						$city_state_zip = $city . $state . $zip;
					}
					//* If city filled out, comma after city
					elseif ( $city ) {
						$city_state_zip = $city . ", " . $state . " " . $zip;
					}
					//* Otherwise, comma after state
					else {
						$city_state_zip = $city . " " . $state . ", " . $zip;
					}

					$loop .= sprintf( '<span class="listing-city-state-zip">%s</span>', trim( $city_state_zip ) );

				}

				$loop .= sprintf( '<a href="%s" class="more-link">%s</a>', get_permalink(), __( 'View Listings', 'agentpress-listings' ) );

				$toggle = $toggle == 'left' ? 'right' : 'left';

				/** wrap in post class div, and output **/
				printf( '<div class="%s"><div class="widget-wrap"><div class="listing-wrap">%s</div></div></div>', join( ' ', get_post_class( $toggle ) ), apply_filters( 'agentpress_featured_listings_widget_loop', $loop ) );

			endwhile; endif;
			wp_reset_query();
		
		echo $after_widget;
		
	}

	function update( $new_instance, $old_instance ) {
		return $new_instance;
	}

	function form( $instance ) {
		
		$instance = wp_parse_args( $instance, array(
			'title'          => '',
			'posts_per_page' => 10
		) );
			
		printf( '<p><label for="%s">%s</label><input type="text" id="%s" name="%s" value="%s" style="%s" /></p>', $this->get_field_id('title'), __( 'Title:', 'agentpress-listings' ), $this->get_field_id('title'), $this->get_field_name('title'), esc_attr( $instance['title'] ), 'width: 95%;' );
		
		printf( '<p>%s <input type="text" name="%s" value="%s" size="3" /></p>', __( 'How many results should be returned?', 'agentpress-listings' ), $this->get_field_name('posts_per_page'), esc_attr( $instance['posts_per_page'] ) );
		
	}

You are looking in the wrong place. The View Listing is the text for the WordPress more link. Open archive-listing.php and change line 86:

$loop .= sprintf( '<a href="%s" class="more-link">%s</a>', get_permalink(), __( 'View Listing', 'agentpress' ) );

Thanks for reaching out Victor. But I have figured out where to change the text in the plugin but that won't help as it will revert back when the plugin is updated. I need help writing a filter that I can put in my child theme's functions.php so that any plugin updates won't effect the change. Do you know how to do that?

Copy the plugin into the child theme's widget directory and modify it as your own.

I answered this on StackOveflow:

The answer is on this forum already:

Agent Press Listing

You would add this to your functions.php file and change the words as needed. When your plugin updates, the words won't change:

/**
 * Filter the loop output of the AgentPress Featured Listings Widget.
 */
function agentpress_featured_listings_widget_loop_filter( $loop ) {

    $loop = ''; /** initialze the $loop variable */

    $loop .= sprintf( '<a href="%s">%s</a>', get_permalink(), genesis_get_image( array( 'size' => 'properties' ) ) );

    $loop .= sprintf( '<span class="entry-title">' . ( get_the_title() ) . '</span>' );

    $loop .= sprintf( '<span class="listing-price">%s</span>', genesis_get_custom_field('_listing_price') );

    $custom_text = genesis_get_custom_field( '_listing_text' );
    if( strlen( $custom_text ) )
        $loop .= sprintf( '<span class="listing-text">%s</span>', esc_html( $custom_text ) );

    $loop .= sprintf( '<span class="listing-address">%s</span>', genesis_get_custom_field('_listing_address') );

    $loop .= sprintf( '<span class="listing-city-state-zip">%s %s, %s</span>', genesis_get_custom_field('_listing_city'), genesis_get_custom_field('_listing_state'), genesis_get_custom_field('_listing_zip') );

    // Here is where you change the text:
    $loop .= sprintf( '<a href="%s" class="more-link">%s</a>', get_permalink(), __( 'Book Now', 'yourtextdomain' ) );

    return $loop;

}
add_filter( 'agentpress_featured_listings_widget_loop', 'agentpress_featured_listings_widget_loop_filter', 10, 1 );
