Translation in tribe tickets meta row

[Manuela Hernandez Perez]

Hi,
how can I translate “Send RSVP confirmation to” and “Full Name” (see frontend: http://prntscr.com/b5ej9u) ?
I saved the translation by Loco Translate as well as by editing the .po and .mo file via FTP transfer (see backend: http://prntscr.com/b5eilc). But the plugin doesn’t react – there’s still the english version online.
Best regards,
Manuela

Howdy Manuela,

Welcome to our support forums and thanks for reaching out to us. I’ll help you here…

To achieve this you can use a version of the snippet in this article: Change the wording of any bit of text or string. Just paste the code below in your theme (or chidl theme) functions.php file and it should the trick for you:


/**
* Change translations in Event Tickets
*/
function tribe_custom_theme_text ( $translations, $text, $domain ) {

$custom_text = array(
'Send RSVP confirmation to:' => 'Enviar RSVP a:',
'Full Name' => 'Nombre Completo',
);

if((strpos($domain, 'event-tickets') === 0 ) && array_key_exists($text, $custom_text) ) {
$text = $custom_text[$text];
}

return $text;
}
add_filter('gettext', 'tribe_custom_theme_text', 20, 3);


You can also use the Say What? plugin to change translations via GUI.

Please let me know if this works for you,
Best,
Nico

Hi Nico,
thank you very much for your fast reply! Unfortunately it didn’t work. I copied your code into the functions.php file of my theme, but after I saved it, I got a blank page and neither backend nor frontend worked anymore. What did I do wrong?

Wow sorry to hear Manuela!

I’m not sure about it, it’s working fine in my local install and the original snippet is used by many folks and don’t seem to cause this issue. Maybe there’s a formatting issue whn you copied over to your functions.php file? Can you delete the snippet and re-past from the embed below?

Please let me know about it in case there are still issues please send me a copy of your functions.php file in a private reply,
Best,
Nico
