Files to translate

    Hello,

    I’m working on a client case using Virtue Pro template. I would need to update some files for a local language (Finnish). The fields in question are for the blog, things such as call to action buttons (previous post, next post, submit comment) as well as “leave a reply” and “comment” terminology would need to appear in Finnish instead of English.

    What files would need to be updated for the local language?

    Thanks!

    Hello!

    You can use this plugin to change translations of strings within the theme:
    https://wordpress.org/plugins/loco-translate/

    I suggest reading the documentation so you can get it configured correctly, but it should work for your issue.

    Thanks for this! I did download the plugin and red the documentation. However, the Text Editor does not seem to accept “new” translations at all. Could this be because I’m running on WP 4.7. and the Plugin is only compatible with 4.6.1? Or am I doing something completely wrong

    Hey,
    You should be able to edit these within the string translation of your plugin. Do you see that?

    Hey Hannah,

    Thanks! I do see the String translation, however, it does not allow me to add any new translations. 2 294 strings have been translated into Finnish but I can’t add any on my own. Am I potentially looking from the wrong place or doing something else wrong? I would imagine this to be so easy that you could just add your own translations “on the fly” sort of speak.

    You’re not adding a new string, but rather translating an existing one. You should be able to search for your strings and they should already be there. Let me know if that’s not the case for you.

    Sorry, I did mean I’m not able to add new translations for the existing strings. I will get a chance to look into this again early next week. I will follow up should I not make any progress.

    Thanks for your help on this!

    It seems that I’m not making any progress with this. It would be great to get a step by step instructions for how to do it.

    For example – I want to translate “Previous Post” into Finnish. Where in the Plugin do I find the text “Previous Post” and where do I do the actual translation into Finnish?

    I have looked everywhere, but do not find “Previous Post” anywhere. Hence, I can’t even make any translation.

    Thanks for help!
