Hi!
The German translation lacks of translations for the time units week, hour, .. (singular and plural) that are used by the countdown timer (that is e.g. used in the wedding demo). I checked it, and the countdown is not using static strings, so a translation will add support for it.
Could you please update the entries?
Thanks in advance!
Hi thewilli!
we can’t translate the theme in every language existing. You can try to work with WPML or add translations manually using a plugin like: https://wordpress.org/plugins/loco-translate/
Cheers!
AndyHi Andy,
we can’t translate the theme in every language existing
sure, but I was a bit irritated, as there is a German translation, which is just incomplete (turned out the .po file contained few untranslated strings). So first it seemed like a bug to me..
Is there any way to add new translations to e.g. a child theme (I’m new to WP), so I can add my translations without modifying the .mo file of enfold itself, and break the ability to upgrade seamlessly?
Btw, do you accept patches for new translations?
Thanks and best regards,
Willi
Hey,
i had the same problem.
solution is to add a sub folder to child theme called ‘lang’ (paste translation) and indsert the code below in functions.phpadd_action('after_setup_theme', 'avia_lang_setup'); function avia_lang_setup() { $lang = get_stylesheet_directory() . '/lang'; load_child_theme_textdomain('avia_framework', $lang); }see desc. http://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/child-theme-translations/

Hello,
why is the code above different from the one in the ENFOLD documentation?
Unfortunately none of them is working for me… :(Hi!
They are actually the same. The only difference is that in the documentation, we use the theme’s local filter (ava_theme_textdomain_path) to adjust the lang folder path. Do you have a child theme? Could you please provide a link to the actual site?

IsmaelHey!

AndyHi!
did you create a “lang” folder with .mo/.po files inside of it? Please follow the instructions here: http://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/child-theme-translations/ and let us know when you are done and still need help.
Have a look at this thread as well: https://kriesi.at/support/topic/please-contribute-and-translate-enfold/
Regards,
AndyHi Andy,
Yes! I did that. I have a “lang” folder with .mo/.po files inside “wp-content/themes/enfold-child/”
I addition I’ve added this code to my “functions.php”
add_action('after_setup_theme', 'avia_lang_setup'); function avia_lang_setup() { $lang = get_stylesheet_directory() . '/lang'; load_child_theme_textdomain('avia_framework', $lang); }Hi Andy!
Don’t get your last response. I used Poedit to edit the .mo/.po files and uploaded them to “wp-content/themes/enfold-child/lang/”
The problem is, Enfold is not using them.
Thanks in advance
BastianHi!
can you provide us FTP access, so we can check it? post login details here as private reply.

AndyHey!
ftp login does not work for me. Please check. Which port? I used 21 and it does not work.
Best regards,
AndyHi Andy,
I use the german language on my site. The Countdown Timer on my frontpage is still in english.
So the german translation for the countdown timer isn’t working. I did all the things you mentioned above but the Countdown Timer is still in english.Regards
BastianHi!
does it work for you when you make translations in the original po/mo files instead?
Regards,
AndyHi Andy,
I didn’t try that! Want to be safe if a new update is coming, so I’m using the Child Themes function.
Regards
BastianHi,
I’ve checked the german .mo/.po files in “wp-content/themes/enfold/lang/ and I had translated them earlier.
So I don’t know why Enfold don’t like my german .mo/.po files…
Regards
BastianHey!
does this mean translation does not work for you? then it won’t work using child theme neither of course.
Try to delete all theme files via FTP and get a fresh copy from your themeforest account, because maybe there are some corrupted theme files. Don’t forget to clear browser cache and hard refresh a few times after making translations.Cheers!
Andy
