    Hi there
    I got to know your plugin a few days ago. I like this plugin “Subscribe To Comments Reloaded” very much, so I decided to translate the plugin into my native language Farsi (Persian). Since I have been a professional translator for about a decade, I am sure about the high quality of translations. Now, I would like to submit the translation file, which can be downloaded here:
    https://wikisend.com/download/939972/subscribe-to-comments-reloaded.zip

    Please click on “Download” link and download the file. But unfortunately, I have two problems with the plugin. The first problem is: The translation does not work. When I install the plugin, its language is still English although my website language is Farsi. How can I set the plugin language to Persian? Right now, I have only translated the POT file. Then I created a PO file and an MO file in “lang” folder. Nothing else. Those two files are named:
    subscribe-reloaded-FA.mo
    subscribe-reloaded-FA.po

    I thought this would be enough, but the Farsi translation does not work when I install this plugin on my website. What else should be done? I will explain the second problem later on.

    Thank you

  • Hello @javad2000

    Thank you in your interest to extend the plugin to another new language.

    The first problem is: The translation does not work. When I install the plugin, its language is still English although my website language is Farsi.

    If WordPress detects something wrong on the file it will not use it and use the default language instead, so I think we have to polish a little bit the translation.

    I have to set my local development into Persian so that I can see what is wrong.

    I will work this in any change and let you know.

    Regards.!!

    Hi Reedyseth
    Thank you for the quick reply. I wonder how fast you replied my post. I received your answer within 5 minutes after submitting the first post. In fact, I have not translated 100% of the PO file. I translated about 66%, but I have translated almost 100% of the user-interface. The non-translated parts are mostly admin options. Can this cause any problem for wordpress in running the file? I am the translator of Mailman too. I translated only 55% of Mailman and they said it was OK. Now Mailman has a Persian interface.

    I have not translated 100% of the PO file. I translated about 66%, but I have translated almost 100% of the user-interface. The non-translated parts are mostly admin options. Can this cause any problem for wordpress in running the file?

    Not at all, what happens with partial translations is that some parts are display correctly translated and others in English. So that would be enough to test.

    Can you create a new ticket here?

    So that we can add screenshots in case we need it.

    Hello
    OK, I signed up in Github.com, and clicked on “New Issue”. Then I explained this ticket over there. I hope I have done it rightly. I am looking forward to enjoying the Persian translation. My second problem is the all-time problem of all subscription plugins. Every subscription plugin has this main issue: the checkbox should be shown above “submit” button, but it is shown below submit button. I have tested Mailpoet, Subscribe To Comments”, and “Subscribe To Comments Reloaded”. All of them have this same problem. I wonder why the checkbox should be below “submit” button. the “Submit” button ought to be the last element in the form, or some persons won’t see it, particularly if, like myself, they are blind and they use screen reader for reading the screen. “Subscribe 2” has the option to take this checkbox above submit button, but the option does not work in my theme. Even the checkbox itself is not shown in my theme (Travelify), when I use Subscribe2, unless I manipulate the theme manually. I hope there is a workaround for STCR.

    Hello

    Thank you for solving the problem. I renamed the file and the Farsi interface works smoothly now. I revised a few statements and added new entries. Now, 77% of the file has been translated into Farsi. You can download the new translation here:
    https://wikisend.com/download/268700/subscribe-to-comments-reloaded-2.zip

    If you like to include the translator name in the plugin page, I am Javad Hoseini from Tehran:

    OK @javad,

    I will include your name as a translator. Please, let me know when you have the translation at 100%.

    Hello Reedyseth
    I am not sure I will ever translate the remaining items. Right now, all the user-side phrases are translated. The users can enjoy 100% Farsi interface. All the necessary and important parts of admin-interface are also translated. Only a few parts of admin-guide phrases are not translated yet. The admins usually understand those parts with their limited English knowledge. Maybe I will translate those parts once upon a time, and maybe I will not translate them at all. You ought to wait a few weeks to see if I afford the time to revise or complete the translation. If not, you will include the Farsi translation in the next release of the plugin.

    By the way, you didn’t say whether or not I have a tip or trick for moving the checkbox above the submit button.

    Hello
    The Farsi translation is 88% complete now. The latest file has been improved and tested. Everything is working fine, but this plugin lacks two big features. This has caused problem for my users and myself. I will discuss them in a separate topic. Download link:

    Hi again.
    By the way, I changed 3 of the phrases (in Farsi translation only). I changed the default subject this way (I don’t remember the exact tags I used, but it was something like this):
    New comment from [comment_author] in [post topic]

    I thought this sentence should not be repeated in the message body again. So I corrected the message body this way:
    [comment author]:
    [comment content]

    Link to this comment:
    [comment_link]
    link to this topic:
    permalink]
    Manage Your Subscriptions:
    [manager_link]
    I also included the guide for moving the checkbox. Instead of:
    uncheck the default checkbox if you like to move it somewhere else.

    I wrote:
    Uncheck the default checkbox if you like to move it somewhere else. In order to move the checkbox above the submit button, please put the following code in “comment_form function in wp-includes?comment-template.php….
