 * Hello netaction,
 * Please consider that the default plugin language is English, and to make sure
   users get the last translations versions, we make available for download any 
   other desired language from this page [https://translate.time.ly/projects/timely](https://translate.time.ly/projects/timely)
   that needs to be then uploaded to the “language” folder.
    For more information
   please read the following guide: [http://time.ly/document/user-guide/customize-calendar/translations/](http://time.ly/document/user-guide/customize-calendar/translations/)
   Please let me know if you manage to use the above steps and let me know if there’s
   anything else we can help with. Feel free to also use the help we provide on 
   the support forum to questions other users have had in the past.
 * Thanks for being a Time.ly user!

 * Manually installed translations are not updated automatically while updating 
   the calendar.
 * Missing translations would show the English string as fallback, so incomplete
   language files are no issue.
 * Automatically shipped translations would not hinder anyone to change the files
   manually.
 * Conclusion: You might have strong reasons for excluding the translations, but
   I don’t see the difference of this plugin to any other WordPress plugin.

 * hey netaction,
 * Wanted to check in and see if you found our plugin solid and our translation 
   approach reasonable.
    I hope you did, and you’d reconsider us deserving a great
   rating 🙂
 * Thank you,
    Aristotel.

 * I did a fresh installation via WordPress plugin directory and still don’t see
   any German translation. Did anything improve since my report?

 * Hi netaction,
 * I’m sorry that you are having problems with the translation.
 * The default language is English, and only that language is in the plugin “language”
   folder. You can follow guide above, but unfortunately we have not updated or 
   checked the translations that users submitted after a few plugin updates, so 
   I believe that they are not entirely compatible. We are working to simplify translation
   plugin in future versions.
    Until then, as a workaround, you can try [Replace Default Words](https://wordpress.org/plugins/replace-default-words/),
   with this plugin you can translate, or replace all the words on the calendar.
 * Hope this helps.
 * Thanks,
    Ben

 * Hi netaction!
 * About losing the translation: When updating the plugin, WordPress replaces the
   whole plugin directory, that’s why you lost the German translation.
 * I’m changing the packaging procedure of our plugin to include all translations
   we have, so you shouldn’t have this problem in the next plugin release.
 * Meanwhile, if you have some free time to help us translate to German, we would
   love it! Here is the link for it: [https://translate.time.ly/projects/timely/all-in-one-event-calendar/23/de/default](https://translate.time.ly/projects/timely/all-in-one-event-calendar/23/de/default)

 * Hey netaction,
 * Calvin just changed our packaging procedure and starting with today’s 2.3.8 release,
   we’re including all translations in the plugin. You won’t need to downloading
   manually the translations and installing by yourself.
    Thanks for the tip and
   patience!
 * We really want to provide you with a 5 star plugin. Is there anything else you
   think we need to do so that you consider we deserve it?
