 * Hello to all!

    wp-config has de_DE all other plugins
   are working fine in German wp-polls still not Did I forget something? Or do I
   have to copy to a location somewhere at wp-content/plugins/wp-polls?
 * Thanks in forward for help! 🙂

   to /wp-content/plugin/wp-polls/ and then the usual, go to WP-Admin -> Polls -
   > Polls Template (restore all templates to default).
 * The Spanish translation is about 5 years old, so it might be dated

 * Yes 5 years is a long time and the string might change and will not work.

 * Hello, I tried the above with FR translation and doesn’t work.
    I created my 
   own .po files, as the existing are old, uploaded them at the plugin’s root folder,
   restored all templates to defaults and still **no translation displaying…  Any
   clues?

 * Is your website in German in the first place? Did you try the translation from

 * No it’s in French.
    I produced both files **wp-polls-fr_FR.mo** and **wp-polls-
   fr_FR.po** (based on wp-polls.pot) and put them at plugin’s root folder and then
   restored all templates defaults but nothing changed.
 * I also tried the same with the 6 years old FR files at [https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wp-polls/i18n/](https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wp-polls/i18n/)
   
   with same results.

 * Ops my bad, it is French.
 * But anyway, I can’t reproduce your problem.
 * 1. I downloaded the wp-polls-fr_FR.mo and wp-polls-fr_FR.po [https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wp-polls/i18n/](https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wp-polls/i18n/)
   
   2. Place both files in /wp-content/plugins/wp-polls/ 3. Edit wp-config.php to
   use `define ('WPLANG', 'fr_FR');` 4. And it works for me, see the Screenshot

 * Yes, I’m doing exactly the same process but no way to make it work…
    No problem.
   I’ll leave it that way for the moment and if you have a new idea just let me 
   know.

 * Problem solved as far as I’m concerned: another plugin was blocking the translations–
   probably because they are at root folder. Disabled and everything works as it
   should. Thanks for your assistance!
