How to Replace ‘Enter title here’ Text in WordPress

When we create a custom post and click Add New Post,we see everything same at the admin end. For example you added a new custom post Team. So instead of “Enter Title Here” on the Title section you want to show “Name of Team Member”. How can we do that.

First you have a create a custom post as I create a custom post Team. get_current_screen() is a function that is used for get the current screen object. I create a function change_default_title() and use get_current_screen() function inside it. And finally filtering the function by use add_filter. At the first parameter ‘enter_title_here’ is the current version. And you can change it by add the function name  at the second parameter.

// Change default Title
function change_default_title( $title ){
$screen = get_current_screen();
	
// For Team
if ( 'team' == $screen->post_type ) {
$title = 'Name of Team Member';
}   

return $title;
}

add_filter( 'enter_title_here', 'change_default_title' );

When you want to change ‘Enter Title Here’ in multiple custom posts. You can use like this.

// Change default Title
function change_default_title( $title ){
    $screen = get_current_screen();

    // For Testimonials
    if  ( 'testimonials' == $screen->post_type ) {
        $title = 'Customer Name';

    // For Services
    } elseif ( 'services' == $screen->post_type ) {
        $title = 'Service Name';

    // For Projects
    } elseif ( 'projects' == $screen->post_type ) {
        $title = 'Project Name';
    }
	
	// For Slider
    elseif ( 'slider' == $screen->post_type ) {
        $title = 'Slider Heading';
    }
	
	// For Team
    elseif ( 'team' == $screen->post_type ) {
        $title = 'Name of Team Member';
    }   

    return $title;
}

add_filter( 'enter_title_here', 'change_default_title' );

Hope this tutorial works. Thanks !
