Good afternoon Amaury and welcome back!

Thank you for reaching out to us.
I would love to help you with this topic.

When translation file strings are not kicking in, it is usually caused by one of the following things:

1. Your translation files are not up to date
2. You are using some customized translation files that have been placed in the /wp-content/languages/ or /wp-content/languages/plugins/ folder. These might not be updated and will override any other file.
3. The strings are translated, but are considered “fuzzy”

In the first 2 cases, the solution is to update your translation files using the pot file. You can do this by using the Poedit software and heading to Catalog > Update from pot file.

In the last case, you will need to make them “unfuzzy” using Poedit.

I would recommend looking into those 3 approaches.

Lastly, sometimes the translations are not “long form”. For example instead of “Event Category”, you might get something like “%s Category” (%s being populated by the translation for the word Event in this case). So make sure you search for variable versions as well.

Let me know how that goes.

Best regards,
Geoff B.

Good evening Amaury,

I am sorry that this did not work as expected for you.
Let’s take a step further and push the investigation.

Can you please send me a copy of the latest version of your WordPress theme AND the content of your wp-content/languages/ folder via a link to a .zip file link (stored Dropbox or Google Drive) so that I can run some tests on my end ? I recommend a private reply for that purpose.

Please ensure you are using the latest files as found on your actual website.
This way I will get access to any updates or customizations you might have made.

Hang in there!

Good afternoon Amaury,

I am glad you have found a solution that works for you.

As a side note, you can actually fully customize any view.
You might want to read our Themer’s guide to get a sense of how that works.

You are welcome back in our support forums any time 🙂

For now, I am going to close this thread.

Have a great weekend!

Geoff B.
