I have localized the Testimonial Manager with poEdit into German language. I reworked every php script from UTF-8 with BOM into UTF-8 without BOM, because this often results the umlaut (öäüÖÄÜß –> ��) issue. In that case it doesn’t work. Do you have a hint for me how to solve the issue?

The HTML tag is already set into german language
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="de" xml:lang="de">
The metatag is already set to utf-8
<meta charset="utf-8">

The htaccess file has already the following entry:
AddDefaultCharset utf-8

Example:

Kindly send us the addnew.php file so that we can test at our side and we’ll let you know. Otherwise, if possible provide us Logins to your website with URL then we can take a closer look at it. Make sure you set the post as private reply so that only admin can see your logins.

Maybe you will be able to reproduce the issue through setup the localized text. You will find it in the attachment. If you still have questions, please let me know.

@ra_spirit: No problem, you are welcome! It was the skype result with the guys from the aivah support team. 🙂
I checked it at my project. Yes, you are right! The admin panel is still in English language.
Only /testiminials/addnew.php is translated, but not everything within the backend system.

@aivahthemes:
It would be really cool, if it would be possible to localize the whole admin area.

@pddv, @ra_spirit: Kindly replace this line bindtextdomain("messages", DOCUMENTROOT.'locale'); in function.php on line no around 84 and update the po and mo files and see. It will work.

After that you need to update your PO and mo files. Kindly update it using the poedit as the strings with the different lines will impact the no change.

Here we go. I guess the issue is within the files in the admin folder. It could be the case that the php files in the admin folder, which we got, are not prepared for the translated version.

I have tested with your files and it’s working fine at our end. Kindly take a backup and provide us logins so that we can check what the issue might be. Make sure you set the post as private reply so that only admin can see your wp-logins.

The logins which you have sent in skype are ftp details. Not the admin logins. I want https://www.deutsch-vietnamesisch-dolmetscher.com/testimonials/admin/login.php these logins.

I have seen that there is line spacings added for each line of code in your php files. The line numbers in the php files and the line numbers in the po and mo files are different.

How to fix it?
Download the script from the server and regenerate the mo and po files and see if it works or not.

Some lines are not possible to translate, because the orginal file does not include for example this line “Discription for Company” within addnew.php:
– Enter the company name or website <br>example: <a href="http://www.yourname.com/">Website</a>
– Day, Month, Year

How could I add a new line in poedit?
How could I modify a line number, if the line number is incorrect?

Thank you very much in advance!

I did not have the wordpress version. I have the php/js/css version.

Make sure you have regenerated the mo and po files by using Po Editor Software only. Line spacing’s are added after each line of your php code. I’m not sure why it is adding. Try contacting your hosting provider for this.

Hi Pam,

you did not really get this point. There is some Text which is not translateable, because the text is not in the original US language file, therefore I can’t translate it into German and because of this reason the text can’t be shown in my language. Please tell me how can I add a new line (and modify) the US Version?

This Text is not in the original US-language file, e.g.:
– Enter the company name or website <br>example: <a href="http://www.yourname.com/">Website</a>
– Day, Month, Year

Thanks!

BR
PDDV

“Solved by myself”

Edit the language file in US with an Editor of your choise.

#: addnew.php:148
msgid “Month”
msgstr “”

#: addnew.php:148
msgid “Year”
msgstr “”

#: addnew.php:148
msgid “Day”
msgstr “”

I have to recheck the line numbers after the double point (:148)

Found a solution

Gettext shouldn’t contain any HTML elements to translate. Will consider updating the php files again which will be easier to translate. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13395600/php-html-inside-gettext-function-string
