[Plugin: WP-Members] How to translate to other languages

No problem – glad to hear you got it going.

Hi, i have another question. When i log in by going to the “members-area” page, i stay on the same page and all i see is <!–members-area–>.

How can i redirect the users to the front page? thanks.

A couple of things…

First, wherever one logs in, you will resolve to that page. In the majority of cases, it doesn’t make much sense to attempt to view a page, login and be directed away from that page.

Second, but more importantly, if you are seeing <!–members-area–>, then you have something wrong with the short code. My guess is that you do not have that configured correctly. If you put this in using the visual editor for the page, WP will convert that as it believes you did not intend to put in HTML markup. You have to use the HTML view to put in the shortcode.

Alternatively, shortcode support has been added and for the WP shortcode API, you would use the visual editor. Use the shortcode [wp-members page=”members-area”]

So to sum up:

• login will always resolve to whatever page you are logging in on.
• if you use <!–members-area–>, you MUST use the HTML view in the editor.
• if you use [wp-members page=”members-area”], use the Visual view in the editor.

Hi,

i need your help.
I need to translate the plugin in italian. I’ve created the .po and the .mo and i named it wp-members-it_IT.po and wp-members-it_IT.mo.
I’ve uploaded the files in the lang directory but nothing is changing.

The wp-config have is alredy it_IT. So i can’t understand why the translation doesn’t work.

thank you.

Do you have a link to an example?

Is it that there is no translation, or are you seeing that the field names are not translated? (if so, see discussion in this thread about checking that and how to force an update to the settings in the database)

Also, I assume that you mean the /lang/ folder in the wp-members plugin folder structure, correct? (if not, that’s where it should be)

Thank you for the answer.

Here you can see the link:

The lang folder is the correct one and as you can see all is in English, I have also deactivate the plugin with the method that you have described in this forum but nothing changed.

I don’t know where is the problem.
Thank you.

I have to admit, but you have me a little stumped there. You could double check to make sure the load_text_domain is correct (it’s in wp-members.php at the beginning of the file). As far as I know, it is and is working. Hopefully you can track down why it’s not loading that translation.

hi,

some people say that there are already translated file’s… but where can i fine them? i need the dutch translation…

for now i started making one myself

greetings

I’ve put together a page with the current translations that I have as well as the most recent POT file.

Hope that helps.
