Answer 1

You can edit the nodeJs code and change the text.

in "dialogs/qnamakerBaseDialog.js"

You can do:

class QnAMakerBaseDialog extends QnAMakerDialog {
/**
 * Core logic of QnA Maker dialog.
 * @param {QnAMaker} qnaService A QnAMaker service object.
 */
constructor(knowledgebaseId, authkey, host) {

    var noAnswer = DefaultNoAnswer;
    var filters = [];
    super(knowledgebaseId, authkey, host, noAnswer, DefaultThreshold, DefaultCardTitle, DefaultCardNoMatchText,
        DefaultTopN, ActivityFactory.cardNoMatchResponse, filters, QNAMAKER_BASE_DIALOG);
    this.id = QNAMAKER_BASE_DIALOG;
}

}

Take note that:

 var noAnswer = DefaultNoAnswer; 

And / OR you can change the default message in line 15 (or so)

const DefaultNoAnswer = 'Your custom message';
