2 translate.www.ads-software.com questions

1. every plugin that is in plugin directory is elegible to be automatically added to translate.www.ads-software.com , however, if there are some problems with plugin, i.e. invalid textdomain, plugin will be present at translate.www.ads-software.com but it will not be possible to translate it until all errors are fixed.

Plugins that are not in the WordPress plugins directory are not elegible to use translate.www.ads-software.com
You can also find some answers here, in the handbook
https://make.www.ads-software.com/polyglots/handbook/plugin-theme-authors-guide/

2. It depends on readme file
If stable tag is set to Trunk, then you will have only Dev branch, it is usually does not cause problems, unless stable and dev differ too much

For approval you shall contact the corresponding locale team

@rik1234 hi, can you provide the link for me please from the problem plugin

wow thanks for the quick answers.
@psmits1567 , it concerns these addons to GiveWP:
– https://givewp.com/addons/recurring-donations/
– https://givewp.com/addons/tributes/
I’ve understood from someone else that because this concerns premium addons, they are not added to translate.www.ads-software.com, and they can only be translated locally using Loco Translate. Is that correct?

@fierevere thanks! Your answer to my 2nd question is not quite clear to me. To be clear: for this plugin (https://translate.www.ads-software.com/projects/wp-plugins/give/) there is both a stable and a dev branch. It’s just that some terms that are already used in the latest update of the plugin, still seem to exist only in the dev branch and not in the stable branch on translate.www.ads-software.com. So my question is: who do i email about that, the plugin devs or the translate.www.ads-software.com admins?

thanks both!!!
Rik

because this concerns premium addons, they are not added to translate.www.ads-software.com, and they can only be translated locally using

They cant be added to GlotPress (translate.www.ads-software.com)
You can translate them by whatever other means, including Loco translate or POEdit, also you can contact author to include translation with those addons.

Regarding to

https://translate.www.ads-software.com/locale/nl/default/wp-plugins/give/

Dev branch – future version (Trunk)
Stable branch – current version (specified in Stable tag)
https://plugins.svn.www.ads-software.com/give/trunk/readme.txt
Stable tag: 2.16.2
Their strings can differ, i.e. developer has added some new strings and removed some obsolete.
You can contact plugin author about those changes and other issues related to plugin code.

Anything related to translation here
https://translate.www.ads-software.com/locale/nl/default/wp-plugins/give/
you will have to contact locale team, or Project Translation Editor for this plugin, see the information on sidebar.

Hi Rik,

Commercial addons are not on translate.www.ads-software.com
If something is wrong with the translation, you have to contact the author. You could also have a look at the folder where the addon is installed. It will probably have a language folder containing the nl_NL translation.
You could make a modification to the file to see if it works. But be aware that after an update your modification gets lost

Hi there

In terms of the first question, you can always use something in the lines of Loco Translate to create translations. But that will be only for your site. But I can add nothing else to what Yui and Peter said.

thank you all, i’m amazed by the speedy and helpful comments here.
best regards to all,
Rik
