 * Hello !
 * Thank you for this awesome plugin 😉
 * I followed your instructions in order to get the plugin translated, but it doesnt
   work. What I did:
    -Grabbed the original POT file and created a translation file
   based off of that with POEdit. -Put the generated files ‘bbpress-advanced-statistics-
   LOCALE.fr_FR.mo’, and ‘bbpress-advanced-statistics-LOCALE.fr_FR.po’ into “/wp-
   content/languages/bbpress-advanced-statistics/” folder. (I had to create the ‘
   bbpress-advanced-statistics’ folder by myself)
 * After that, I tried everything (move files, install or re-install the plugin)
   but the language stay in english. Could you help me with it please ?
 * Thank you very much ~

 * Hi,
 * The filename should be: bbpress-advanced-statistics-fr_FR.mo and bbpress-advanced-
   statistics-fr_FR.po
 * Give that a shot and see if it works!
 * Also, if you have time – please assist us with translating our plugin for others
   with [the wordpress translate](https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/bbpress-improved-statistics-users-online)
   functionality

 * Hi Jake!
 * Thank you for your answer~
 * Sorry, I did a mistake in my original post. I meant “bbpress-advanced-statistics-
   fr_FR.mo” and “bbpress-advanced-statistics-fr_FR.po”. So, even with the correct
   filename ( screenshot: [http://i.imgur.com/9vdRCLy.png](http://i.imgur.com/9vdRCLy.png)),
   the plugin does not load my french translation.
 * I checked your ‘loadLocale()’ in the ‘class-bbpress-advanced-statistics.php’ 
   file, and every seems ok.
 * Would you have any idea why it’s not loading, please ?
 * Thank you =)

 * Hi Cooljojo,
 * This seems to be working absolutely fine on my test environment, and on some 
   of my live websites. Just to confirm:
 * – You have the language enabled within the General Settings page of WordPress(/
   wp-admin/options-general.php)
 * – The file(s) are named:
 * bbpress-advanced-statistics-fr_FR.mo
    bbpress-advanced-statistics-fr_FR.po
 * And finally, those files are found within a folder on your server in /wp-content/
   languages/bbpress-advanced-statistics/ ?

 * Hello Jake !
 * First, thank you for your help, I really appreciate it.
 * You won’t believe it, but what happened to me was crazy. At the beginning, I 
   started to translate only once sentence in order to test your plugin, and I chose
   randomly this sentence: “Welcome to our newest member”. (That mean, my .mo/po
   files contains only 1 sentence translated in french, and all the others one was
   still in english). So I checked and tested everything only with that translation.
   The crazy part is that, yesterday I figured out that particular sentence was 
   not translatable for a mysterious reason…
    (Screenshot as proof: [HERE](http://i.imgur.com/UiMM67T.png))
   Then, I obviously started to translate the others sentences (without changing
   any settings you asked me to check) and the translation worked well for them.
 * It’s unbelievable but true. It seems there’s one sentence which does not want
   to be translated, and by chance, I chose this one in all my test phase… Anyways,
   everything is working Jake excepted this mysterious sentence but it does not 
   matter.
 * Thank you very much for your help ! And if you’re interested in a french translation
   for your plugin, I could send it to you 😉

 * Hi cooljojo,
 * Thank you for bringing this to my attention, I believe this is the way the translation
   programs are parsing that particular line. I have updated the plugin for this,
   so please download the latest version [as this should resolve it](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/bbpress-improved-statistics-users-online.latest-stable.zip)
 * Secondly, please make sure you are editing the latest pot file provided with 
   each plugin release, this will make sure the latest translations will be available
   to you.
 * Finally, it would be brilliant if you could provide the french translation once
   you are finished – I would then add that into the plugin for future releases!
 * Thank you for your patience and assistance!

 * Hello Jake!
 * It was natural for me, morever your plugin is very useful 🙂
 * Thank you for this new version, everything is working fine ! I had all the time
   to test my full french translation, and it’s just perfect now.
 * Sure, I’d like to contribute to the translation of your excellent plugin. How
   do you want me to proceed to send you the po/mo files?
 * I’m patient by nature, you do not have to thank me, it’s me who have to thank
   YOU 😉 !

 * Hey,
 * If the file(s) are complete, feel free to send them to me via email on [jake@thegeek.info](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/about-languages/jake@thegeek.info?output_format=md).
   I will then add them to the latest release.
 * Also, would you mind contributing the translations to our GlotPress page for 
   French? You can do so here: [https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/bbpress-improved-statistics-users-online/stable/fr/default](https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/bbpress-improved-statistics-users-online/stable/fr/default)

 * Hi Jake 😉
 * I had troubles working on the French (fr_FR) translation with **Loco Translate**
   and finally discovered that I had to recreate the .pot file to be able to translate.
 * Don’t know if on my side, the file has been corrupted at some point? But now 
   it works. Sometimes that could be due to a **missing header** in the .pot file.
 * Would appreciate if you could throw a look at my **OK file:**
