    Hi,

    My enfold website is in Danish and I had to do some translation as not all text was correct Danish and some was not translated.
    Whenever there is a new version of the Enfold theme all my translations is lost.

    I want to avoid that and I think I should perhaps create a child theme, right?
    But what to put in the child theme? Only files related to the translations? It is the only thing I have changed/modified from the original theme (besided som things in Quick CSS)

    I have never worked with child theme before, but I saw a little video about it, that all layout will be reset. Is there a way to keep all the design things I have done? Colours, fonts, size etc. etc. or is it just to do all the settings again?

    Your help are much appreciated, as I use too much time on doing all the translation over and over :) thanks.

    Hey t3lgroup!

    Thank you for using our theme.

    Activate your child theme.
    Go to Enfold-child Theme Options -> Import/Export. You’ll see a blue button which says “Import Parent Theme Settings”.

    This should import all your settings from the parent theme.

    Conerning translation: Did you modify the language file with PoEdit:

    enfold\lang\da_DK.po?

    This would be the best way to make the translation.
    http://poedit.net/ – it’s a free application.

    You put your translated files in
    enfold-child\lang\da_DK.po
    enfold-child\lang\da_DK.mo

    Cheers!

    Hi,

    I just used WPML string translations for changing the language.

    But I will try to look into the other way that you mention.
    And also have a look into the child theme. This is new to me so I will have to do it carefully and read something about it so I don’t mess anything up

    Hey!

    Thank you for coming back.

    Have a look at http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes. This will give you some background information.

    Cheers!
