In relation to this topic (https://www.8theme.com/topic/translate-brand-text-from-link/), whenever the theme is updated I must make the same change.

I copied the same file on the child theme but the change is not overwritten the main theme.

Can you tell me how to make this change permanently?

Thank you.

Hello,

Please try to add this function into the function.php file of Child Theme and make change there.

function et_create_brand_taxonomies() {
		$labels = array(
			'name'              => _x( 'Brands', ETHEME_DOMAIN ),
			'singular_name'     => _x( 'Brand', ETHEME_DOMAIN ),
			'search_items'      => __( 'Search Brands', ETHEME_DOMAIN ),
			'all_items'         => __( 'All Brands', ETHEME_DOMAIN ),
			'parent_item'       => __( 'Parent Brand', ETHEME_DOMAIN ),
			'parent_item_colon' => __( 'Parent Brand:', ETHEME_DOMAIN ),
			'edit_item'         => __( 'Edit Brand', ETHEME_DOMAIN ),
			'update_item'       => __( 'Update Brand', ETHEME_DOMAIN ),
			'add_new_item'      => __( 'Add New Brand', ETHEME_DOMAIN ),
			'new_item_name'     => __( 'New Brand Name', ETHEME_DOMAIN ),
			'menu_name'         => __( 'Brands', ETHEME_DOMAIN ),
		);

		$args = array(
			'hierarchical'      => true,
			'labels'            => $labels,
			'show_ui'           => true,
			'show_admin_column' => true,
			'query_var'         => true,
            'capabilities'			=> array(
            	'manage_terms' 		=> 'manage_product_terms',
				'edit_terms' 		=> 'edit_product_terms',
				'delete_terms' 		=> 'delete_product_terms',
				'assign_terms' 		=> 'assign_product_terms',
            ),
			'rewrite'           => array( 'slug' => 'brand' ),
		);

		register_taxonomy( 'brand', array( 'product' ), $args );
	}
