Hi hostingnames,
please take a look into the documentation:
04 Localizing Script
We have localized the script by default with the english language using the poEdit translator. If you wish to have it translated all the strings to your language make sure you create a new translation file and place it in the locale/{YOUR -en_US- LANGUAGE}/LC_MESSAGES/messages.po
For example if you are using it for the spanish language then your directory for the localization should be something like locale/es_ES/LC_MESSAGES/message.po. If you are using it for the portugal then it should be like locale/pt_PT/LC_MESSAGES/messages.po.
After translation make sure you change the ;language in the functions.php file located in the include folder in last see below.
Replace the en_US with your language you have created and the folder names are case sensitive you need to make sure it is same as it is now with the uppercase.
// Set language
$advt_lang = “en_US”;
if( !empty( $advt_lang ) ) {
putenv(‘LC_ALL=$advt_lang’);
setlocale(LC_ALL, $advt_lang);
bindtextdomain(“messages”, “./locale”);
textdomain(“messages”);
}
If you have an issue with localization on your server then make sure your server has the gettext php extension installed and enabled. Check out with your php settings and if you are using the shared hosting you need to ask you host for how to enable the extension for the gettext. If you are familiar on enabling the gettext then find the below code in your php.ini file and remove the semicolon from the starting of the below line.
extension=php_gettext.dll
I hope it answer your question.
Best regards,
Norman
