Very Hot topicHow to translate my plugins to your language

There are usually a bunch of complicated steps to translating plugins but I like to take a more simplistic approach. You can translate any of my plugins by doing the following:

TRANSLATING:
* Download and install Poedit
* In the /i18n/ directory of the plugin you'll find a file called "Template.pot"
* Open Template.pot with Poedit
* On the left side of the screen you'll see the English strings
* On the right side of the screen you'll see the translated strings
* Click on a string and use the lines at the bottom of the page to enter your translations
* Once you're done Click File->Save As... and save the file as PluginName-locale.po so for example a German translation for Mingle Forum would get saved as mingleforum-de_DE.po.
* After saving, send me your saved files and a name so I can get you credit.
* I will take care of the rest and get your translation out with the next release of the plugin.

UPDATING TRANSLATION:
* As new features are added to the plugins it will be necessary to update the translation files every once in a while.
* This is easy, open the .po from the /i18n/ folder of the plugin, that's in your language
* Click the menu Catalog->Update From Pot file and choose the Template.pot file in the /i18n/ folder of the plugin.
* Poedit will update the file and show you any new strings that need to be translated.
* Once you're done save the file and send it back to me.

If you want to share your translation with others please post a link to them here and I will try to get them in future versions of the plugin.

Thanks for any help in translations!

I found the .po file in spanish but I have no idea how to implement it so it will turn the forum into spanish. If you could give me some instructions. Thanks.

You need to open you wp-config.php file and edit the language setting to "es_ES" in order to get your site to run in spanish. See the following for more information on how to do this:

Hi there!

I am translating the forum to Hungarian. It is done more than 90%. I do not find "Show/Hide Header" expression in the list nor any part of it. And it remains there unchanged :(
Is it my mistake or this one is somewhere else?

  • and (0)
  • announcement(s)
  • Embed
  • To: Subject

That's all, I think... Fix it please
