Plugin translation not working 100% – po files

  • Hi,

    I’m using the Dokan multi-vendor plugin with the pro version.

    I have downloaded the .po et .mo files for the french version. Unfortunately the files were not 100% translated so I used PoEdit to finish the job.

    Then I uploaded the files in the following repertory: /wp-content/plugin/languages
    It is the recommended way by Dokan documentation to avoid overwritting during updates.

    I named the files:
    – dokan-fr_FR.po
    – dokan-fr_FR.mo

    Some of the translations are working but still, I have some pieces of text which stay in english.

    I don’t know if there are other translation files ? For example I see that you have the dokan.po and dokan.mo in the /wp-content/plugin/dokan/languages repertory. Could that be related to my issue ?

    It’s the first time I use PoEdit and translate manually a plugin. I followed exactly what the documentation said but still having issues.

    If somebody could help me, that would be appreciated.

    Thank you.

  • Hello

    I’m french PTE (I can validate your French translation in https://translate.www.ads-software.com/locale/fr/default/wp-plugins/dokan-lite/) if you translated https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/dokan-lite/

    Do you use Free Dokan Plugin or the repository Dokan plugin ?

    I use the pro version of Dokan.

    But if I’m not wrong, the dokan-lite is complementary to the dokan (pro version) ?

    Which means I have both folders:

    – /wp-content/plugin/dokan-lite –> dokan-lite-fr_FR.po and mo files.
    – /wp-content/plugin/dokan-pro –> dokan-fr_FR.po and mo files

    I used the link you sent to download both of my files, and finished it manually (81% translated).

    The main problem by adding your premium string is wp-content/plugin/dokan-lite is you will lose them on next update (same for Pro translation)

    Dokan-lite translations files are automatically downloaded by WordPress during updates in wp-content/languages/plugins

    I don’t know how Dokan developers load their translations but adding
    – dokan-fr_FR.po
    – dokan-fr_FR.mo
    to wp-content/languages/plugins should work.

    The best should be you send your premium translation to Dokan and they add them into their plugins directly.

    Sorry my bad, they’re actually on the /wp-content/languages/plugin folder. Sorry !

    I’ll update as I can the translation on the dokan official translation.

    But still, I’m confused of my .po files not working (completely)

    I’m sorry, Dokan is a non free plugin and can’t help you more. You should contact their support and ask them to add your translations in their plugin.

    For pro or commercial product support please contact the developer directly on their site.
    This includes any pre-sales topics as well.
    As the developer is aware, commercial products are not supported in these forums.
    I am sure they will have no problem supporting you there.
