  Hi there,

  Same problem as rosaconradmusic https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/my-followers-dont-like-being-told-that-theyre-amazing-people-1?replies=2

  There’s no answer and it seems she’s asked for a snapshot of the widget. Here it goes:

  <img src=”https://farmacon.files.wordpress.com/2015/10/sin-tc3adtulo.png”>

  It’s in spanish. I’d like to delete “amazing people” or “personas increíbles”. It sounds absurd.

  Cheers.

  Cheers

  I’ve checked the Notify boxand I’m subscribed to the topic.

  I see that the modlook tag has been added so… i’ll wait for an answer.

  Cheers.

  Hi there! Thanks for the screenshot. That text is not editable, but I would love more information about why the language is troubling for you.

  I imagine this may be a cultural difference. In the US being an ‘amazing person’ generally means being awesome, cool, or someone that you’re thankful of. I’d love to understand better so I can make a case for that text being changed (or even editable) in the future.

  Hi,

  My blog is a peculiar one. It’s about Philosophy and Aesthetics. People into these matters would consider “amazing people” too “poppy” or “too kitsch”. My kind of reader would like a more “minimal” text. In fact it would be perfect if I could simply delete the “amazing” word. The rest is fine.

  I hope you have been able to understand me, albeit my rusty english.

  Cheers
