Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: [Tracks] Translations no longer working with child themeThank you for replying so quickly. No, that doesn’t seem to work unfortunately. Is that the only code needed in the child’s functions.php file in order to pull the translations from the child’s folder? One other thing:
When Tracks is updated it replaces all the files which is why a previously included translations may have stopped working
I’m a little confused by this, the translation pomos were previously in the tracks-child/languages folder, and were still there after the update, it’s just that after the update they being ignored. So I’m not quite clear how the update would have affected the translations?
Thanks again!
Update: For today’s “1510”, I tried reinstalling Polylang as well as changing the theme to a default one (2016). This hasn’t solved the problem.

In reply to: [Polylang] Home page problemI’m trying to solve a very similar problem. I’ve got Cornish (kw) as default, English (en) as the second. My permalinks are set to “/postname”. Switching the front page from Cornish to English works fine – but after a while it breaks, switching to the English front page goes to a “Parent directory of /en” page. On looking via ftp, it seems that some process is creating an empty /en folder in the /public_html folder, and it’s doing this at around the same time daily (15.10) which I assume causes the problem. I can delete the /en folder, but it’ll just reappear the next day and break the English homepage again.
I can solve it by changing permalinks to “plain” (eg /?p=123), but I really want to have it set to /postname
In my support forum post (link below), someone asked if the host “uses some cache”, but I’ve no idea what that means.
I’m adding this to your question, in case it is helpful.

support post:Thank’s I’m still not sure what you mean. I’m not at all an expert – just learning as I go.
Can you (or anyone) explain what cache is and how it may be causing the problem? I’m guessing from your replies, that you don’t think that the folder is being created by Polylang or WordPress, but by my host (Bluehost). Is that correct?
I can certainly ask bluehost – but if I’m asking a question I don’t understand myself then it’ll make it more difficult for me to explain.
Thanks again,
Thanks for the reply Chrystl. I’m not sure what you mean – I’m not using a cache plugin, the only plugins I’ve got running are:
Typkit
WP maintainance mode
Polylang
Could you explain a little more?Forum: Plugins
In reply to: Translation of dates, days, and other front end stuffThanks mindctrl – however, to use that I still need to know the strings/domains and I’ve no idea what those are or where to find them.
Months/days etc are in the locale.php wordpress file – other bits are in the theme files – other bit’s I’ve no idea (such as ‘leave comment’, ‘read more’.I don’t mind going into the necessary files to edit them and then ftp them back to the server – but I don’t know exactly what files I need to edit, and I don’t understand the code to know which bit of the file to edit – I certainly don’t mind learning, but I just don’t know how to start.
