Translate plugin to Spanish

Thanks for reaching out @sitesamantha. It’s great to hear you’re trying to translate the plugin. I’m by no means a WordPress translation expert, but you’ll want the files to be named “wired-impact-volunteer-management-es_ES.mo” (or .po) or use whatever WordPress locale is chosen to replace “es_ES”. You can find the WP Locale column at https://make.www.ads-software.com/polyglots/teams/.

It’s also worth noting that WordPress is now using language packs to automatically provide translations in different languages. If you add your translations to https://translate.www.ads-software.com/projects/wp-plugins/wired-impact-volunteer-management/stable/es/default and complete at least 95% of the translation, they should start pulling automatically with new downloads. That said, I’ve never used this before, so I’m unsure how reliable it is.

Let me know how it goes and what else we can do to help.

Jonathan,

Thank you for your quick response and thank you for creating this plugin. I started translating more strings and when I replaced the mo file, I was able to see the translation. I am copying and pasting the translation in the Translating WordPress site for Spanish (Spain). Do you know how do I upload my po file, so i don’t have to copy and paste each translation?

Thanks again,

Hi Aly,

It’s great to hear the translations are working. I don’t know if there is a way to easily upload your po file to the Translating WordPress website, although I’m not an expert. I looked for a while and couldn’t see a way to do it. If you have the time to do them manually that’s great, but I understand if you need to stop given the amount of time it might take.

Otherwise, is there anything else we can help with?

Jonathan

Hello Jonathan,

Thank you so much. I will try to contribute with the translating. Thank you for answering my questions.

No problem at all Aly. Thanks a ton for contributing.

Also, since the plugin is so new we’d love it if you’d leave an honest review at https://www.ads-software.com/support/view/plugin-reviews/wired-impact-volunteer-management.

Otherwise, have a great weekend!
