How to Change Text in “Next/Done” Buttons

Last Updated June 13, 2024

Request

I want a way to change the text in the “next”, “back”, or “done” buttons on my steps.

Solution

Changing the button text for steps can be accomplished using CSS. 

CSS

Note

  • This article covers the global CSS settings (not the local ones for each step) - If any local CSS is already in use it may override the global CSS solution
  • To make changes for multiple steps, you will need to add separate CSS for each step

Find step ID

First, you must locate the Smart Walk-Thru step ID by following these steps: 

  1. Click on the step you want to update in the editor
  2. Open the Notes tab
  3. Copy the ID next to “For CSS Adjustments, use balloon ID:” 
  4. Paste the ID in place of “XXXXX” in the CSS solutions provided in this article

Edit global CSS

  1. Click Edit global CSS in the WalkMe Editor settings menu
  2. Enter the custom CSS in the CSS editor
  3. Click Save
  4. Click Publish settings
Republish the Smart Walk-Thru for the changes to go into effect.

Change the Next button text

Replace the words “new text” with your preferred text.

font-size:0px !important;

}

div#walkme-balloon-XXXXXXX button.walkme-custom-balloon-button.walkme-custom-balloon-normal-button.walkme-custom-balloon-next-button.walkme-action-next.walkme-click-and-hover span.walkme-custom-balloon-button-text::before {

content: "new text" !important;

visibility: visible !important;

font-size: 12px !important;

}

Change the Back button text

Replace the words “new text” with your preferred text.

content: "new text" !important;

visibility: visible !important;

font-size: 12px !important;

}

Change the Done button text

Replace the words “new text” with your preferred text.
