I am using The Creative Theme but want to change the ‘View project’ text on each Project post link to something else. Is this only something I am able to do if I upgrade to a Premium paid WordPress account? I don’t seem to have access to a way to do this at the moment using a free WordPress account.

Many thanks!

The only way to change that text is to use a little bit of CSS trickery and that would require either the WordPress.com Premium Plan or WordPress.com Business plan upgrade.

That’s great – thanks for the response! I will go ahead and upgrade. Is there any way you could tell me how to implement the CSS change? Thanks again.

Here would be the CSS to change the “View project” on the portfolio page to something else. You can edit the content text string as desired.
```
.mosaic-overlay .details span {
    visibility: hidden;
}
.mosaic-overlay .details span:after {
    visibility: visible;
    content: "My New Text →";
    display: block;
}
```

Could you also tell me what the CSS code would be to change the ‘Archives: Projects’ text on this page?

I just want it to say ‘Archives: Shows’

First off, I should have mentioned this, but we are not actually changing the titles. What we are doing is to make the original title invisible and then adding the new title with CSS, and that means that it doesn’t exist as far as search engines go. It is only a visual change seen by those viewing your site on their phone/tablet/computer. The search engines will still pick up the original title, and those using screen readers (visually impaired) will also get the original title.

This will allow you to change the visible title on the portfolio page.
```
.post-type-archive-jetpack-portfolio .archive-title {
    visibility: hidden;
}
.post-type-archive-jetpack-portfolio .archive-title:before {
    visibility: visible;
    content: "This is my new title";
}
```
