JA Stark - author field in English

didier-l

Hi,
I'm migrating a website in Joomla 4 version and I have choosen JA Stark template ; it's a very nice tool but I meet some problems when I display author name in an article (component content - display in blog mode) : there is a small word By before author name !
This is a french website ; this expression "by" must be replaced by nothing (blank) or anaother expression as "écrit par", "par"

How to solve this problem ?

I have searched "By" string in different directories as templates\ja_stark, plugins\systems\t4 with specific tool but it was unsuccessfull

didier-l Hi

You can override this language constant via Backend of your site: TPL_CONTENT_WRITTEN_BY

Thanks,

TPL_CONTENT_WRITTEN_BY
this language override removed the word "By" and the author name as well - which is not good when you have multiple authors.

I searched "By" in the language files, it is not there, it is also not in the template files

any other solution?

----EDIT-----

I found the solution:

The reason replacing TPL_CONTENT_WRITTEN_BY removes the entire author section is that this string serves as a placeholder that formats the "By" text along with the author name. If you override this string with an empty value or text without placeholders, it could break the expected output.

Solution: Modify the Override Carefully

In the "Language Overrides," replace TPL_CONTENT_WRITTEN_BY
Instead of removing the value, use a placeholder like %s to ensure the author name is still included. For example:
Written by %s
or just try: %s
This way, the "By" text changes while preserving the author information.
