    I don’t know what i should do to get the translations working, i’ve tried everything:
    I edited the themes languages files: doesn’t work.
    So then i downloaded the stable german translation from tribe-events github and put them into /wp-content/languages/plugins/ : doesn’t work. I put them into /wp-content/plugins/the-events-calendar/lang : doesn’t work.
    So i edited the strings in the plugins templates directly – doesn’t work either.
    Then i was looking in the other support threads and saw some additional translation in the functions.php. I copied the code and modified the translations but that doesn’t work either. I’m really stuck now since nothing seems to work.

    You can find an example here: https://moosrank.ch/spezialwoche/
    It should say “Vorherige Veranstaltungen” instead of “Previous Veranstaltungen” and “N?chste Veranstaltungen” instead of “Next Veranstaltungen” and “Weitere Infos” instead of “Find out more”. I found the strings in the .po files but the website won’t take the translations and i really don’t have any idea why. (It’s not the first time where i have to translate strings from the event tribe plugin and i never had that much problems).

    Thank you for your feedback.

  • Hey Ramona,

    Thanks for reaching out and sorry for the delay in our reply!

    My guess here is that those words translations are being overwritten by the theme you are using. Can you please try to switch to Twenty Sixteen theme temporarily to check on this? If we can confirm it’s the theme causing the issue then you’ll need to ask their devs about it and see how you can prevent this or just contribute the correct translations to their product.

    In my local test site I’m seeing the correct translations when testing The Events Calendar in German with Tweenty Sixteen.

    Please let me know if this is correct,
    Best,
    Nico
