How To Change The Word 'Labels' Below Posts On Blogger

On a blog I'm currently working on I wanted the labels section at the bottom of the post to be better used for navigation by visitors.The site is dedicated to documentary films so I thought having the word "labels" change to something like "Watch More Documentaries from" (this then followed by a list of labels) would better grab the attention of visitors.In my view with the word labels then the links to each it will not be looked upon as a form of navigation but rather as some kind of administrative section under each post.

OK so changing the word from Label to anything you want on Blogger is quiet easy so here's how it's done.

Change The Word 'Labels' On Blogger


First we need to access your templates HTML to do this :

1. Click the drop down menu for your blog and choose "Template" > Click the "Edit HTML" button as shown in the video below.



2. Now you need to find the following piece of code in your template :
Tip - Use CTRL F for a search bar to help find it

<data:postLabelsLabel/>

3. That snippet of code is what represents the word Label as seen below your posts.So now you simply need to change that code with what you want to appear.Below you can see were the section was and how I changed it on the Documentary blog :

<div class='post-footer'><span class='post-labels'>
<b:if cond='data:post.labels'>
<b> Watch More Documentaries From :</b>
<b:loop values='data:post.labels' var='label'>
<a expr:href='data:label.url' rel='tag'><data:label.name/></a><b:if cond='data:label.isLast != &quot;true&quot;'>,</b:if>
</b:loop>

The <b> </b> you can see at the beginning of the text just makes the text bold.

That's it you can now change it to whatever you like. Be sure to let us know what you think in the comments and share the post if you think it will help others.
