Hi Rob,

While, I can understand that you need to meet a deadline, editing the core directly will cause all of your customizations to be lost.

Please see the following guide for how to translate Event Espresso 4:

https://eventespresso.com/wiki/how-to-translate-event-espresso/

I just checked the example that you shared for Spanish (Spain) and it has been translated:

Also, we do appreciate you searching for something on your own but if you can’t find it after a couple searches, then please create a support post here in our support forums so we can help you.

For your country, it may not be set to appear in the dropdown menus. You can go to Event Espresso –> General Settings –> Countries.

Select Canada and then look in the left menu below the main dropdown for an option for showing the country in the dropdown menus. Set that to no and save changes.

Then repeat this process for United States.

From here, select Spain and then set that option to Yes and save changes.

Hi Rob,

Could you confirm that you are using the PO file from our GlotPress project?

The string that you mentioned that is missing is there:

Could you reply with the translation? I’ll update it and provide you with a MO file that you can upload to your site.

Thanks

Hi Robert, thanks for sharing that translation. I’ve added it to GlotPress under Spanish (Spain).

Click this link to get an updated MO file:

http://translate.eventespresso.com/projects/event-espresso-4/es/event-espresso-es_ES/export-translations?format=mo

Then change the name of the file to event_espresso-es_ES.mo.

The file should then be uploaded here using your preferred SFTP or FTP client (e.g. FileZilla, Cyberduck):

/wp-content/uploads/espresso/languages

Event Espresso will start using the language file right away.

If there are any other language strings that you are having trouble locating, then please do let us know.

Thanks

Hi Rob,

I setup a gettext filter for this which I checked with the latest release:

function ee_messaging_changes_registration_checkout( $translated, $original, $domain ) {

    $strings = array(
        'In order to process your registration, we ask you to provide the following information.%1$sPlease note that all fields marked with an asterisk (%2$s) are required.' => 'Para poder realizar su registro es necesario proporcionar la siguiente información.%1$sLos campos marcados con un asterisco (%2$s) son campos obligatorios.',
        'This ticket type does not require any information for additional attendees, so attendee #1\'s information will be used for its registration purposes.' => 'Este tipo de entrada no requiere de información adicional.',
    );

    if ( isset( $strings[$original] ) ) {

        $translations = get_translations_for_domain( $domain );
        $translated = $translations->translate( $strings[$original] );
    }
 
    return $translated;
}
 
add_filter( 'gettext', 'ee_messaging_changes_registration_checkout', 10, 3 );

Copy that into your child theme’s functions.php file or a site specific plugin.

Would you be interested in contributing your translations to our GlotPress project? If so, could you email us a copy of your PO file to the following email address and we’ll follow up:

Hi Robert, those phrases are already in our GlotPress:

http://cl.ly/image/2O1r3S3a0P0w

Here is what I recommend.

Get a copy of the PO file from GlotPress:

http://translate.eventespresso.com/projects/event-espresso-4/es/event-espresso-es_ES/export-translations?format=po

Then use the merge feature in POEdit to merge the files together.

If you would like to contribute your existing translations, then we can perform the merge on our end and then provide you with an MO file that is ready to go.
