• Hi,

    I am using the Appointment Lite, so far really enjoying it.
    As the title stated, I need to change all front-end display words into chinese, and change up some of the font sizes.
    My default language for wordpress is still English, and I am not planning on changing that.
    I just need to change the front-end display words into chinese as my clients dont read English.

    So far, I can only change the title of each shortcodes you provided in the plugins, but that doesnt meet what I am looking for, also, once I change the title (eg.My Appointments) to the language that I want, the font size become 12px and even though I added style font size or color code before the title, it didnt help the problem.

    I am using a child theme, and capable of translating by myself, but how can I do that?
    Should I edit the plugin files or just edit in my child theme?

    Thank you for your time, it will be wonders if you can help me out here.

    Hello @thechihuahua, I hope all is well!

    You can translate the plugin by translating .po and .mo files. Use PoEdit open source program. if you’re translating Chinese for China, the file should be “appointments-zh_CH.po”.

    You will find in /wp-content/plugins/appointments/languages/ the appointments.pot file, download it and open the file with PoEdit. Open Poedit and go to File > New catalog from POT file.

    Start translating the plugin.

    Once you have the translation files ready, edit the wp-config.php and add the following:
    define ('WPLANG', 'zh_CN');

    Upload the .po and .mo files

    You can also try the Loco Translate plugin, where you will be able to edit in-browser WordPress translation files.

    So far, I can only change the title of each shortcodes you provided in the plugins, but that doesnt meet what I am looking for, also, once I change the title (eg.My Appointments) to the language that I want, the font size become 12px and even though I added style font size or color code before the title, it didnt help the problem.

    Would you please share a link to your site so I couls see athe titles and provide you teh correct CSS code?

    Please advise,

    Hello @thechihuahua, I hope you are doing well today!

    I just tested the plugin on my site with only the Appointments Lite and the Tablepress activated and can’t reproduce the same. Would you please do the same, to make sure there is no other plugin that may interfere?

    Please test the following:
    – Switch to a default WordPress theme
    – Deactivate all other plugins, leave only the Appointments Lite and Tablepress activated.

    Will the tables be broken? If not, please activate one plugin at the time to find the one that might be conflicting.

    Let us know how it went!

    Kind regards,
    Nastia

    Hi,
    Thank you for the advise on how to test out the problem.
    It turns out it is the theme that I am using causing the problem…
    The theme I am using is Perth from Atheme.
    When using this theme, I can’t get Appointment Lite and Tablepress to work together.
    Is there any way I can solve this problem?
    Or do I have to change the whole theme?

    Thank you so much or the help, I appreciated it.

    Hello @thechihuahua, I hope you are doing well today!

    Would you please let us know do you use lite or Pro version of the Perth theme. I’ve tested the lite version and can’t replicate the same.

    Have you added any custom CSS to your theme? Or have you created a child theme?

    Please share a link here to the Appointment page so I can have a closer look to it. I might be able to fix this with a CSS code.

    Please advise,

    Cheers,
    Nastia
