    Hi, first of all thanks for this awesome plugin and the support you provide.

    Im trying to change the language of the plugin with the .pot file.
    I have done this with many plugins and I know that the files generated ( .mo and .po ) need to be named like “pluginame-languagecode”

    So, I save the language files with “dws-ES_cl” but nothing happens, I know that ES_cl is the right language code for me because I use it with many other plugins.

    I also tried to save the files with just “dws” but that didnt work also.

    How do I make it work?

    Thanks for your help!.

    Glad to help. I’m not sure why the language translation would not be working, but would recommend trying with a plugin like Loco Translate to see if that helps.

    Let me know how it goes!

    I really cant make it work.

    Where I can modify the php code to put the text directly there, without the php connecting with the language files.

    I know its not the best solution but I need it now, I want to change this text.

    Are you able to translate any of the other text in the plugin?

    With the .po and .mo files it seems like I cant. I just want to change that text in the image so I think it is acceptable if I just change it with the php code.
    But I dont know what to change without breaking the plugin.

    I can’t recommend modifying the plugin core files, but can definitely recommend is using a translation plugin. I use Loco Translate, but there are several good alternatives and/or services available. The good thing about using a plugin or service is that they point out any errors or issues so they can be resolved.

    I understand what you are saying but its not working, I always translate plugins so I really dont know why this is not working.

    See this, I used loco translate as you advised.

    The “Widget Box” text is still there ??

    I finally managed to change it with the original php code, It seems like that text is not linked with the language files.

    Im just a noob so I really dont know, thanks for your help and for this awesome plugin :).

    Thanks!

    So from the screenshot it looks like the other strings in the plugin are in fact translatable, correct? (just want to make sure!)

    Thread Starter limitlessventas

    (@limitlessventas)

    They appear as translatable but the translations dont work, at least with the box titles.

    I cant talk about the other translatable parts, I didnt tried with the other parts.

    (@specialk)

    Can you please try with the other parts? It would be awesome if you could let me know, because I want to fix any issues.. (you know to make it a better plugin)

    Okay

    I translated some random stuff and saved. It didnt work, I cant see any of my changes taking place.
    Maybe its my wordpress, but I dont think so because in other plugins the translations work without a problem.

    Alright thanks, I will look into it. Perhaps there is some detail that needs adjusting.

    Just to follow up with this thread, language/translation support in the latest version (DWS 1.2) has been greatly improved. Should be good to go for translating the plugin. Thanks!
