Thanks. I have placed it within my child theme’s functions.php file, but nothing happens…

I have tested with the following (after ‘Bill To:’ I however need to add other strings):

function mycustom_filter_gettext( $translated, $original, $domain ) {
// This is an array of original strings
// and what they should be replaced with
$strings = array(
‘Bill To: ‘ => ‘Facturé à’

// Add some more strings here
);

// See if the current string is in the $strings array
// If so, replace it’s translation
if ( isset( $strings[$original] ) ) {
// This accomplishes the same thing as __()
// but without running it through the filter again
$translations = &get_translations_for_domain( $domain );
$translated = $translations->translate( $strings[$original] );
}
return $translated;
}

add_filter( ‘gettext’, ‘mycustom_filter_gettext’, 10, 3 );

Thank you.

This way it works. However, one issue remains: the date format. More precisely, my WP date format contains the name of the month, that I cannot change/translate in this file. Is there a way to render this translatable? (of course, alternatively I can change the date format to contain only numbers, but I’d rather keep the format with the name of the month).

Thank you in advance,

Thank you Josh. This works fine.

However, if my WP date format is “26 September 2013” (in French, in my case), the name of the month appears in the pdf invoice still in English, untranslated. Is there any way to translate the name of the monthts, and where?
