Translate 1 word in email

Hello,

If you can’t find where that text is coming from, your best bet would be to use the String Locator plugin to track down those strings:

Hi @maykato ,

I have tried this but I can’t find it. This is maybe a translation within WooCommerce? It is in the E-mail, how do I change this?

Hello,

Have you tried using the Say What? Plugin? i.e. https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/say-what/ it is helpful to alter or replace strings on your site.

Let us know how it goes.

Hi @ihereira ,

Is this like Loco Translate? Because I use Loco Translate and I can’t find the word. It is a word in the WooCommerce E-mail so not on the front-end of the website..

Hi @basvweb

I understand that you tried using Loco translate but the desired output couldn’t be got yet.

Here’s a guide on using the Loco Translate plugin, that you may find useful:

If you need more help or detailed instructions for Loco Translate, you can receive that by posting your query in the plugin’s support forum: https://www.ads-software.com/support/plugin/loco-translate/

How do I translate the quantity header text in the WooCommerce new order and processing order e-mail

Also I have looked in the email-order-details.php amd I can’t find it

Thanks for clarifying that you want to make the change not on your website but in the WooCommerce emails.

As you want to edit your email header, you’ll need to make edits to the email-header.php file. You can read more on this in our blogpost (scroll down to the section where it says “Creating custom templates with code”): https://woocommerce.com/posts/how-to-customize-emails-in-woocommerce/

I hope this helps!

Hi @margaretwporg ,

Thank you for the help but I am not trying to edit the header.

I am trying to edit the text ‘Aantal’ in the order table which has a <th> tag:

Hi @basvweb,

What you want to accomplish should be achieved by overriding the email-order-details.php template file in woocommerce ? templates ? emails.

Here’s the line that you’d have to change:

https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce/blob/fe1c83de1e8f9df20c325bc45ceae9e2f019e34c/plugins/woocommerce/templates/emails/email-order-details.php#L43

To override, copy the default template from wp-content/plugins/woocommerce/templates/emails/email-order-details.php and paste it in your child theme’s folder at wp-content/themes/[path-to-theme]/woocommerce/emails/.

Hope this helps.
