POT file duplicate definition error

Please remove last 3 lines from file icy.pot it will fix the problem.

I will include fixed file in the next release, so others won’t run into the same problem.

Hi,

I never used a .pot file for a translation so this was my first attemp.

1. I downloaded icy.pot and changed the name to
icy-de_DE.pot
2. I removed the last 3 lines with written text from that file.
3. I downloaded and installed Poedit and opened icy-de_DE.pot with Poedit.
4. Poedit asked me some stuff with plural forms and I entered
nplurals=2; plural=(n != 1);
from https://docs.translatehouse.org/projects/localization-guide/en/latest/l10n/pluralforms.html?id=l10n/pluralforms for german
5. I entered the translation for “Read More” and saved the file. Poedit also created an .mo-file at this moment.
The .pot looks now like this https://s14.directupload.net/images/130728/k7s9ypxs.png
6. I uploaded the .pot and the .mo-file into /wp-content/themes/icy/languages
7. I called the startpage and I can see “Read More” instead of my translation.

– My wp-config.php has the
define (‘WPLANG’, ‘de_DE’);

How can I activate the translation?

Salam alaikum idienstler,

Translate the icy.pot using POEdit and save it as de_DE.pot not icy-de_DE.pot

Hopefully that’s it.

Hi Wakil Nikzad,
