translating filter button label was created by vilost
I am trying to give a custom name to the label on the filter button on the frontend of the filter module. No matter what I change in the language file the label remains "filter" for English and "filtre" for french.

Hi,

You should add your modification in the override area when you edit your translation file via the interface of the configuration like that:
FILTER="My custom text"

Hi, I have tried that and cleared the cache, but the text remains the same.

That's correct indeed.

Then, it must be joomla translation files overriding that override in some way.
In that case, you should edit the file "filter" for your front end template via the menu Display->Views and directly change the text :
JText::_('FILTER')

by:
'Rechercher'

and that will do what you want.

That worked. But it is not the best solution for me since I have a multilanguage site and it is not possible to translate the word by this solution. I will keep looking if I can find where the override is coming from. In case you also find it let me know. Thanks for all the help

Then, you could replace JText::_('FILTER') by this:
JText::_('MY_FILTER')

and in your override file, you could do like that:
MY_FILTER="Rechercher"

That way, the Joomla override when mess with yours.
