HEllo, first thanks for this fine piece of software πŸ˜‰ Just bought 4.4.5. installed it and everything seems nice… BUT: The language of my blog is German. for example in the frontend there is the english sentence :

“Please note that a maximum number of 1 tickets can be purchased for this event per order.”

I thought: Ok it would not be translated, so i donwloaded the an *.po export from http://translate.eventespresso.com/projects/event-espresso-4/de/event-espresso-de_DE and … it is translated.

do I have to upload thre language file myself and replace my file with the existing event_espresso-de_de.mo or why is this not working from the start?

Thanks for your help !!

Hi,

You could use something like this in a site specific plugin or your child theme’s functions.php file:

add_filter( 'FHEE__ticket_selector_chart_template__maximum_tickets_purchased_footnote', 'ee_change_maximum_tickets_messaging' );
function ee_change_maximum_tickets_messaging() {
 
 return 'Notice: Register today! Only a limited number of tickets are available';
 
}

It will look like this:

Hello Lorenzo,
thanks for the answer. But: The parts are already translated! In this translation here are many many translated parts that would be needed to run it on a german website : http://translate.eventespresso.com/projects/event-espresso-4/de/event-espresso-de_DE

But it seems like this language translations are not implemented in the newest version that i donwloaded yesterday.

So how do i “get this translation running” ? I hope oyu know what i mean πŸ™‚

THomas

This is all not working πŸ™
I made you some Screenshots, to show you I did that:
1. Translation is there: http://Lockruf.com/ee/trans.jpg
2. It is uploded to where you said: http://lockruf.com/ee/ftp.jpg
3. It is not working: http://lockruf.com/ee/frontend.jpg

So what did i do wrong? Do I have to change the filename? Upload an export in *.mo format from this site http://translate.eventespresso.com/projects/event-espresso-4/de/event-espresso-de_DE or do i have to make an *.po export and convert it to *.mo myself ?

Thanks a lot for your help!!!!

Hi,

The reason this is not working is due to the file name.

With EE4.4.x this needs to be event_espresso-de_DE.mo

Currently it is eventespresso-de_DE.mo

In version 4.5.0+ we have added another check for language files downloaded directly from GlotPress.
