multilingual problem

  • Hi,

    First of all, thank you for the pretty good theme.
    The multilingual feature is not working. The reason may result from incorrect .mo and .po file name. In wordpress, the site language is configured by WPLANG constant inside wp-config.php file. Therefore, wordpress CMS can find the language file by WPLANG constant.

    Some language like Traditional Chinese and Simplified Chinese abbreviations are zh_TW and zh_CN respectively in WordPress setting. However, in minnow/languages/ directory, these two language is zh-tw.mo, zh-tw.po, zh-cn.mo and zh-cn.po. It causes that minnow theme cannot find the correct language file name. Those files’ name may change into zh_TW.mo, zh_TW.po, zh_CN.mo and zh_CN.po.

    Thanks.

  • If you change the language files to zh_TW.mo, zh_TW.po, zh_CN.mo and zh_CN.po is everything working normally otherwise?

    If so, I’ll investigate whether those filenames can be provided in the xx_XX.mo/xx_XX.po formats in the theme files by default. Just please first confirm whether that’s the only issue here. Thanks!

    Hello, Kathryn!
    Yes, I only changed those file names into zh_TW.mo, zh_TW.po. It’s working for me.
    However, I don’t test zh_CN.mo and zh_CN.po.

    Thanks for your reply.

    Thanks for letting me know. Looks like there’s a glitch in the language file-naming process, which our developers are looking into. We’ll keep you posted.
