French Translation

[Yan]

I would like to use Event Calendar Pro in french but my WP is in english. How may I activate the translation without reinstaling WP ?

Hey Yan. Thanks for the note here. Are you saying you want to translate the full site, or you just want the calendar translated? The latter may be difficult; the former can easily be done in your wp-config file. Let me know if I misinterpreted the issue here.

I just want the calendar translated. I read it should translate automaticaly if my site is in french. But I don’t know how to change de language of my site to french. What is the simplest thing to do ?

Ah, gotcha. That’s totally easy! Happy to help. You should just go into your wp-config file; you’ll find a section around line 72 for:

define(‘WPLANG’, ”);

Between the two apostrophes after WPLANG, add fr_FR if you’re changing to French. So it should look like:

define(‘WPLANG’, ‘fr_FR’);

Hope that helps! Let me know if it doesn’t.

Great ! Thank’s. I had to create a language file in wp-content to put the french .mo and .po files. This was the only way to have de month in french.

Ah, excellent to hear you got this taken care of. Let us know if you need anything else here!
