Where to translate everything?

[Rasmus]

I’m trying to translate as many strings as possible to correct Swedish. The standard translation leaves pretty much to ask 🙂 I’m using Poedit and have made plenty of translations that was wrong or not there at all from the beginning.

I’t seems like all strings are not in the po-file. How do I do to find ALL translations and how do I edit them if they ar not located in the po-file?

Hi, Rasmus.

Thanks so much for your interest in helping translate our plugins!

Here is our process for translations:

• https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/changing-the-language-on-your-calendar/
• https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/adding-or-updating-a-translation/

Two things to note are:

• You do not have to submit an entire translation, you can just submit translations for individual strings. Even if it’s just one string, or something like a spelling correction, it all helps!
• Your submitted strings will be saved as “suggestions”, and not immediately included in a translation file for export until an administrator approves them. This may seem like a limitation, but it helps us ensure nobody comes along and deletes translations or adds spam or something to them. Your suggestions should be approved in a timely manner.

I hope this information brings you up to speed on our translations site. Let us know if you have any other questions or concerns! 🙂

Thank you!

Hi, what I don’t understand is that there seems to be a lot of information that is not included in the language files. Where do we find all the text that is not translatable in Poedit?

Please provide me one or more examples of untranslatable text, and I’ll look into this for you.

Thanks.

Hey there! This thread has been pretty quiet for the last three weeks, so we’re going to go ahead and close it to avoid confusion with other topics.
