What is the purpose of "reply to listing" button and a send message bubble icon

[Nikhil]

I am a bit confused seeing both modal windows “reply to listing” & “send message” do the same thing, show the message within the user’s dashboard message section.

Is there any way to modify the button text & modal window title text without using the Loco Translate plugin?

If both buttons do the same, I wish to hide the bubble icon (which is not noticeable) and change the button text and popup window to “Send a message”

Hi,

For translating the button, we recommend to use Loco Translate. Here’s a guide that’ll walk you through: How to translate an extension - HivePress Help Center, How to change any static text - HivePress Help Center

And for hiding that bubble icon, please use this CSS snippet:

.hp-template--listing-view-page .hp-vendor__action--message {
	display:none !important
}

Hope I answered your questions

Thank you very much for your support.

Can you please explain why there are 2 buttons with the same function? Am I missing anything?

I thought about deciding whether to change the button text or hide the bubble button based on the purpose of both buttons.

If you mean the Reply to Listing button on the listing page, the difference is that it links the message to the listing and the listing link is displayed above the message. The Send Message button doesn’t attach the message to the listing, but there is a minor bug that the message icon on the vendor block on the listing page also links messages to the listing. However, we are planning to fix it
