 * I’m using YITH Purchased Column for WooCommerce with the Dutch localization of
   WordPress. The Purchased Column is back alright, but the header of the column
   is in English, while all other columns are translated to Dutch.
 * For example the columns ‘Orders’ and ‘Ship to’ are translated to ‘Bestelling’
   and ‘Bestemming’.
 * ‘Purchased’ used to be translated to ‘Aangeschaft’ in the Dutch localization 
   of WooCommerce version 2.x therefore I would expect YITH Purchased Column for
   WooCommerce to restore the same column title in Dutch.
 * It’s not a deal breaker but would be nice to have the title in the localized 
   language 🙂

 * Hi,
 * WooCommerce removed this string in latest WC update and you need to translate
   the plugin but after your reporting we have found a problem with plugin localizzation,
   in fact if you go here: [https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/yith-purchased-column-for-woocommerce](https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/yith-purchased-column-for-woocommerce)
   you can’t translate anything.
 * Tomorrow we’ll send a new release that allow you to translate all plugin strings
   
   Thanks for your reporting.
 * Have a nice day
    YITH

 * Hi,
 * today we have released a new version of this plugin, now you can translate it
   in [https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/yith-purchased-column-for-woocommerce](https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/yith-purchased-column-for-woocommerce)
 * In this way your translation will add to plugin languages pack and you didn’t
   lost it in next plugin update.
 * Thanks for your reporting.
    Have a nice day YITH

 * Hi again,
 * I’m new to this type of translating and slightly overwhelmed by the 231 translations
   that are ‘open’ for three variations of Dutch (what is the difference between
   Dutch formal and Dutch Nl_nl anyway?) in four files.
 * I translated quite a few but after an hour I stopped. Will these translations
   be used or do others need to check them first?

 * [@laptopleon](https://wordpress.org/support/users/laptopleon/) nl_NL is informal
   translation. nl_NL-formal is (how surprising) a formal translation. nl_BE is 
   Dutch Flemish.

 * I understand what formal is, but I’ve never seen an option for selecting formal
   versus casual language in WordPress – as a user nor webdesigner – or anywhere
   else in software or outside software for that matter.
 * It seems cumbersome to dedicate a complete, new translation to the formal version
   of Dutch and another one to Flemish, while so little words – if any – will ever
   be different.
 * I don’t mean that Flemish doesn’t deserve it’s own translation, but if I understand
   correctly, the system demands translators to start from scratch while probably
   99,9% will be the same as the nl_NL text.

 * The formal version is available in Settings > General at language chooser.
 * Flemish translators can copy Dutch and import them. No problem.

 * Can they import all strings on the translation site with one command or string
   by string?

 * Hi [@laptopleon](https://wordpress.org/support/users/laptopleon/),
 * I’m sorry but I don’t know how I can help you with this request but, for this,
   you can ask on #polyglots channel on slack.
    In this channel I’m sure you find
   someone that can help you with the translation in your languages.
 * If you don’t know how use slack, please visit this link: [https://make.wordpress.org/chat/](https://make.wordpress.org/chat/)
 * Unfortunately, we can manage only translation in English, Italian and Spanish.
 * Have a nice day

 * It’s fine.
 * I just wanted to translate the column title. I had no idea it would be this complicated
   with 200+ strings that have to be peer-reviewed and what not.

 * Hi [@laptopleon](https://wordpress.org/support/users/laptopleon/),
 * if you want to translate only the purchased col you can create the languages 
   file for your language and copy it inside the folder wp-content/languanges/plugins
   of your WordPress installation. After this you can translate only the string 
   you need.
 * for this you can use a tool called PoEdit: [https://poedit.net/](https://poedit.net/)
 * Pleae, visit this link for more details: [https://poedit.net/wordpress](https://poedit.net/wordpress)
