Hello
I’ve changed my wordpress installation to German (as described here: https://eventespresso.com/wiki/how-to-change-languages/ ). WordPress and part of EE4 is now German.
I also (manually) created the directory ../wp-content/uploads/espresso/languages and downloaded the German mo/po files from Github
event_espresso-de_DE.mo and event_espresso-de_DE.po and uploaded it to the directory.
I tried to refresh, empty cache etc, but the translation won’t appear. (i double checked with Poedit that the phrases are translated, which they are).
regards
Phil

Is the German option activated in WP > Settings > General (last option on the page)?

Hi
Yes I did. WP is now German and part of EE4 as well. I just installed the event_espresso-de_DE.mo and event_espresso-de_DE.po to have additional translation.
regards
Phil

Hi
I just downloaded the PO and MO file (again). Uploaded it to ../wp-content/uploads/espresso/languages …
did a refresh. nothing changed.
I’m looking for line 5747 or 15343 in the .po file where it says Verfügbare Plätze / Available Tickets
they should appear on this site, right? http://awesomescreenshot.com/0183j5enee
regards

If I read correctly, ghe German PO file should translate it to “Verfügbare Plätze” as defined on line 5747 or 15343 in the .po file…. not?

It should as it is used by the ticket template file:

I’ll run some testing and update this support post.

Hi,
Could you give this a try:
function mycustom_filter_gettext_available_tickets( $translated, $original, $domain ) {
// This is an array of original strings
// and what they should be replaced with
$strings = array(
'Available Tickets' => 'Verfügbare Plätze',
'Available Tickets:' => 'Verfügbare Plätze:',
// Add some more strings here
);
// See if the current string is in the $strings array
// If so, replace its 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_available_tickets', 10, 3 );

Hi,
You can either add it to your themes functions.php or better yet use a custom functions plugin, we have instructions on how to create one here: https://eventespresso.com/wiki/create-site-specific-plugin-wordpress-site/

Hello
I’created this and yes, Verfügbare Plätze are now correct. The thing is, that I would like to use the PO/MO file to make the translation and not change every word/sentence for it selfe. I also registered as an translator at your site to modify MO/PO’s. that way everybody could benefit from my work ….
regards
Phil

Hi Philipp,
Can you provide me with a copy of the .PO and .MO files that are not working please? The ones located within wp-content/uploads/espresso/languages/
I’d like to take a look at the files and see if there is any reason for them not to load.
If you could email them to support[at]eventespresso.com I’ll take a look.

Hi Philipp,
The files that you have sent, are those the exact files you are currently trying to use?
The reason I ask is the filenames are currently incorrect. EE4 looks for ‘event_espresso-*locale*.mo’
So in this case the files should be renamed to event_espresso-de_DE.mo/po
Then placed within wp-content/uploads/espresso/languages/
Your translations should then work correctly.

Hello again Philipp,
We have a new resource that explains how to translate Event Espresso. You can view it here:
https://eventespresso.com/wiki/how-to-translate-event-espresso/
Also, GlotPress now has translation strings that are up to date for the current Event Espresso 4.8.x platform.
