    I have tried searching in Google but I couldn't find the solution on how to change the phrase "Recent Post" in Wordpress. I want it changed into "Latest Articles", for instance. While part of Wordpress file should I edit?

    It's most likely in your "sidebar" file.

    On your Dashboard, go to Design --> Themes --> Theme Editor. Look through the files on the right side under "Theme Files." See if you see one called "Sidebar." Click on it. Click inside the box with the code and wse Ctrl+F to find the words "Recent Post" in that file.

    If nothing's found then look for a different sidebar file (you'll have more than one if you have multiple sidebars).

    When you find "Recent Post," change it to "Recent Articles" or whatever else you want it to say.

    you need to edit the sidebar in theme files or if you are using a plugin then either you need to make changes on widgets or the settings.

    if you haven't fixed the problem let me know i am happy to help. :)
