Localizing "BY" in Facebook posts

Posted in: Newspaper
Post count: 90

When one posts a link to a blog article on Facebook, the bottom line of the post contains the site name á la “mysite.fi” followed by “|” and then “BY <article author>”

In Finnish, we obviously do not use “BY”; we would simply have the author’s name after “|”, like this:


MYSITE.FI | MARCUS FINN

Instead, what one gets is


MYSITE.FI | BY MARCUS FINN

How could one get rid of the “BY”? There is one in the TRANSLATIONS section, but overriding it has no effect when posting on Facebook.

Hi,

Unfortunately that word is not controlled by the theme, like you can see it is translated in language that you have set in Facebook settings: http://screencast.com/t/RgoyZjyJzCg

Thanks!
