I have used a query widget within web app builder as a user friendly search method.

The problem is that the naming of the execute button 'execute' is inappropriate in the context of this map.  Yes, it is the technical name for what they are doing when they are starting the query process but this app has been designed for non technical people and in this context 'execute' could be considered offensive. 

Is there a way that we can change the name of this button?

I currently just use plain web app builder, no portal or developers edition.

Naomi,

   Adrian is correct, you will not be able to change the "execute" string unless you are using WAB Dev edition and hosting the web app on your own web server.

Naomi,

I am guessing that you would have to use the developer edition of WAB in order to change names of buttons. Though, I would be curious to see what others have to say. For this to get more responses, it might be best to move this thread to the https://community.esri.com/community/gis/web-gis/web-appbuilder?sr=search&searchId=b2b77385-1cd0-4cb...‌ space or https://community.esri.com/groups/web-app-builder-custom-widgets?sr=search&searchId=c0dd7af3-fc7a-4f...‌ group.
