Hello everybody!
I read some threads about the translations and how to use them, but it doesn’t seem to work for me. I downloaded both .po and .mo for de_De and uploaded them to sp-resources/forum-language/simple-press.
I the renamed them to sp-de_De.po and sp-de_De.mo and checked my wp-config.php, where language is defined as de_DE.
Did I forget something? Do I need to update something or reinstall the plugin? Did I use the right folder?
1 – You only need the ‘.mo’ file although having the .po does no harm.
2 – If your WP_LANG is defined as ‘de_DE’ then you should use the same format for the ‘mo’ file name – i.e., ‘sp-de_DE.mo’ and not ‘sp-de_De.mo’.
3 – What is translated does, of course, rely on what translations have actually been made – for that you need to check the translation site.
4 – More importantly, you have to remember that most of what you see in SP now comes from the SP theme you are using and not the core so if you only install the core language most will not be translated.
Oh – thanks a lot. That was the information, I needed. Works fine now als I uploaded the language-file for the theme! Got confused there with all the “po”s and “mo”s.
