[QUOTE="Antus67, post: 870867, member: 83595"] Scroll through any social media website long enough, and you’ll eventually see a screenshot of a ridiculous conversation or similar text that seems outrageous. As it turns out, your instinct is right—most of these are actually fake. You might not know that it’s really easy to doctor the text on a website and capture a screenshot of it. You don’t need any fancy photo editing software, either. WIn this article, we show you how to change text on a website using Chrome. To change the text on any page, first load it in your browser. We’ll discuss Chrome here, but the process is similar in other browsers too. With a page open, right-click on the chunk of text that you want to modify and choose [B]Inspect[/B] (sometimes listed as [B]Inspect Element[/B]). This will launch Chrome’s developer panel on the [B]Elements[/B] page. If you’re wondering how to change text with [B]F12[/B], know that you can press [B]F12[/B] to open the same panel. In that box, you’ll see the HTML for the page you’re visiting. See [URL='https://www.makeuseof.com/tag/5-steps-understanding-basic-html-code/']our introduction to HTML[/URL] if this is unfamiliar to you. Depending on the text you’ve selected, you’ll likely see some text in [B]<p>[/B], [B]<div>[/B], or other similar tags. Click the arrow next to those tags to expand the section and show the full text. From there, simply double-click or right-click and choose [B]Edit text[/B] on the block you want to change. Once you click away or hit [B]Enter[/B], the text will update. You can do this as much as you like to change the various text. As you mouse over tags in the [B]Elements[/B] panel, you’ll see the corresponding text on the page light up. You can remove entire blocks by right-clicking on them and choosing [B]Delete element[/B]. The page will retain your changes until you refresh it. Feel free to take a screenshot and share your funny edit wherever you like Source: [URL="https://www.makeuseof.com/tag/how-to-fake-edit-website-text-using-nothing-but-chrome/"]How to Fake Edit Website Text Using Google Chrome[/URL] [/QUOTE]
