Translation stopped working

Hi @bapakrob,

It’s totally possible that the translation files were overwritten on the plugin update. Will you please grab the latest translation files and install them to see if it makes a difference?

The latest versions can be found here:
https://translate.www.ads-software.com/projects/wp-plugins/the-events-calendar/stable

Instructions for installing translation files can be found here:

Hello Geoff,

Thanks for looking into this.
I downloaded, renamed the files to the-events-calendar-nl_NL.mo (and .po) and uploaded them.
However it didn’t work out.

As a test, I’ve also installed all-in-one-calendar plugin. This plugin also has a Dutch translation that should be recognized immediately. But it also doesn’t grab the language files.

Could it be a WordPress thingy?

Rob

@bapakrob,

Better help with translating it on translate.www.ads-software.com:

https://translate.www.ads-software.com/projects/wp-plugins/the-events-calendar/stable/nl/default

As soon as it reaches 95% approved strings, every plugin user will benefit if they use the nl_NL translation.

Thanks,
Chantal

Hi Rob,

It’s very possible that the last version of The Events Calendar did not grab the most recently revised translations or that the most recently revised translations are different than what was bundled in previous versions.

The links provided in my last reply will indeed help you move forward.

You can grab the latest translation files for the plugin here:
https://translate.www.ads-software.com/projects/wp-plugins/the-events-calendar/stable

Once downloaded, you can install them here with these instructions:
https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/changing-the-language-on-your-calendar/

Or, if those do not provide you with the translations you need or want, you can modify the translation files manually and translate the strings as desired:

@geoffgraham The issue is solved. It appeared the language setting of my WordPress is ‘Dutch formal’. Apparently there are no language file for this.
When i switched to ‘Dutch’ everything was fine again.
