Hi @ffenton
I’m sorry to hear that you ran into issues with this!
If you are using AWPCP 4.0.0 or newer, the translation file should be loaded automatically. Which version are you using?
Please let me know.
I’m using 4.0.16 and have followed your instructions here https://awpcp.com/quick-start-guide/#qs-translate
I have site language set as English(UK)
I have new files in wp-content\languages\ – another-wordpress-classifieds-plugin-en_GB.mo and another-wordpress-classifieds-plugin-en_GB.mo – but any changes I make aren’t showing up on the website.
Your instructions say Under Classifieds->Settings->General Tab, find and check the box that says “Turn On Translation File (POT)?” but that option doesn’t exist.
And I’ve made sure cache flushed.
Hi @ffenton
Thanks for providing that link — that’s an old document that has been replaced here: https://awpcp.com/knowledge-base/translate-awpcp-native-language-modify-labels-awpcp/
You may not have changed all instances of the verbiage you are trying to change in the translation file — the same words appear many times. You can use Ctrl+F to find all instances.
Please try that and let me know if you run into more issues by contacting me directly with instructions to reproduce the issue.
Please contact us with a link to this forum thread here: https://awpcp.com/contact/ http://businessdirectoryplugin.com/contact/
I have now got it working. I didn’t come across those instructions once when searching – only the old document.
However, there is an error in the new document. In it you state “replace en_US in the file name with en_UK, es_ES, fr_FR, etc, if necessary” but for UK it’s en_GB.
Hi @ffenton
Thanks for reporting that — I have fixed the documentation now. We really appreciate you letting us know!
Please let me know if you have any other questions or issues!
