Translating "Subtotal" invoice and delivery

Hi there!
The totals in the invoice come straight from WooCommerce, together with the already translated labels. If you want to change this, you have to update the WooCommerce translations.

Let me know if you have any other questions!

Hi,
here the same problem. I cant find the “subtotal”. In all .PO Files it is translatet allready. And i use WPML and search for subtotal. But there is no string.

This is after the last update happen, i think.

Hello CanisMajoris,
In the (unmodified) Simple template, the string “Subtotal” comes from WooCommerce and cannot be modified with the .po files from this plugin, you need to fix the translations in WooCommerce.

What’s your language?

Let me know and I’ll see if I can find the issue!

Our language is german.

Are you using the default Simple template?

Also check whether in the WooCommerce email (the email text), this string is also translated (my guess is that it is not!).

We use DIVI from Elegantthemes. And this problem is new. After last update i think. Before there was all ok.

Hi again,

dont exactly where the email strings are. i checkt all, there is no problem i think…

I meant the PDF template (Simple in the free version), not the WordPress theme.
Can you forward a WooCommerce Order email with the pdf attached to [email protected]?

Again, although the problem may be new, those strings actually do not come from the PDF invoice plugin, so as far as I know this is unrelated. Please not that it might also be related to another plugin (like WooCommerce German Market for example, which has been known to make a lot of modifications to the WooCommerce output). You could test this by temporarily deactivating some suspect plugins and then try again. Also make sure that your WooCommerce translations are fully up to date.

Thanks!

Ok, i just send you a email.

Thank you!

It turned out that the translation was indeed missing from WooCommerce.
Check wp-content/languages/plugins/woocommerce-de_DE.po /.mo

You could also try to see if this has been solved already by going to WooCommerce > System Status > Tools and then do a force translation update (somewhere halfway down the page), although this may also overwrite any changes that you made to the WooCommerce translations.

Hi Ewout,
i want to change the phrase “subtotal”, were i can find it?in wich php file? this is because my invoice or receipt oredr must be ever in my italian language.

Hello Nicola,
This phrase comes from WooCommerce and should normally already be translated. I’m starting to think there is an issue with the latest release of the WooCommerce translations and they somehow missed this string. You should not change this in the php files but update the language files as indicated above.

Hope that helps!

Hi
in function.php put that code below
as You see, You can use it for every string on page and email also
in my case I have changed ‘subtotal’ to ‘Podsuma’ and ‘You are here’ to ‘Jeste? tutaj’

//string translate
add_filter(‘gettext’, ‘translate_reply’);
add_filter(‘ngettext’, ‘translate_reply’);
function translate_reply($translated) {
$translated = str_ireplace(‘You are here’, ‘Jeste? tutaj’, $translated);
$translated = str_ireplace(‘subtotal’, ‘Podsuma’, $translated);
return $translated;
}

That’s a neat trick Bartek, thanks for sharing!
