tribe ext schedule day view: Missing Translations

[Marcus]

Although I have actually done all the necessary translations with Loco Translate, the translations are not displayed in the frontend

Hi, Marcus. Thanks for the detailed question.

I’m not familiar with Loco Translate’s inner workings, but maybe the issue is with the way extension plugins are loaded. Does Loco Translate have a way to fire at a later priority or after a specific hook?

Or that may not come into play at all depending on how the translations are loaded, in which case I’d wonder if the issue happens for all other extensions (all load the same way) or if it happens for other plugins that aren’t our extensions.

I first translated the data with PoEdit and then uploaded it. Unfortunately this did not work.

Otherwise, I can not really remember any problems with LocoTranslate

Hallo Marcus

I just tested this. I created the German translation (tribe-ext-schedule-day-view-de_DE.po) with PoEdit and added it to my local test site in the plugin folder (wp-content\plugins\tribe-ext-schedule-day-view\languages\). All the translations worked.

Then I have installed Loco translate and the translations are still showing.

This is what could have happened:

You did some translations with Loco translate. The translation file in this case gets copied to a different folder, e.g. wp-contents/translations/plugins (or there is a Loco translate folder option as well).

Then you did some further translations in PoEdit an uploaded the file into the plugin folder.

But if there are translations outside the plugin folder (like above), then those take precedent.

What you can do is make sure that either:

• Translation files are only in the plugin folder OR
• the translation files in the other folder(s) are up to date as well

Hope this helps. Let me know.

Cheers,
Andras

Hello Andras

I deleted the language file and then recompiled it to the system location. It works now
