also the link you recommend, it only lead to a partial chinese translation.

thanks.

no i havent tried 5.3 version. does it contain the chinese translation files that I need?

this is to go into the locations list page by the way i.e.

https://www.mywebsite.com/events/locations

thanks, perhaps my wording was incorrect, so I apologise for this

i need a search input field for locations and not a locations filter i.e. it’s a text input where user types in a location name and the system returns any locations that are similar as a list. you know something similar to the events list page where users can type in text to find matching events

I’ve just followed your instructions, but I see no option to update to dev version 5.2.9.2

I got the message:

There is a new version of Events Manager available. View version 5.3 details or update now.

I’m using multisite by the way, events manager plugin is installed on network. I’ve set the enable dev version from the events settings tab on network dashboard

thanks, I was looking into this. was just wondering the proper way to do it since you have a better understanding of the plugin than I do.

gracias gracias!

can I update on my test site, then just copy/paste the .op, .mo files to my live version?

the word “dev” makes me nervous, and everytime I update a critical plugin on the live site, you know my heart pounds faster! ha ha!

I’ve just visited the following link:

https://www.shanghaiexpat.com/event/4-days-beijing-photography-tour-23501.html

As you can see it’s an English language map for Chinese city (the road names are in English). I’m web browser is Chinese language also.

It would be beneficial to have more control over the language of the street names for non-English speaking countries (i’m working on a expatriate website)

I’m know googlemaps can cater for different language maps, but what’s the best way to do this in events manager?

this is great news! Where can I go to get the dev update? What URL? Is the Chinese translations released as of this message post?

I’m guessing we’re from different international time zones. My time is Beijing time (GMT+8 hours)

yes, I am using an incomplete chinese translation, but I should still beable to modify the .pot file which i tried without success

if a new updated and complete translation file is available in Chinese, that would surely make things alot more easier. Currently I’ve had to manage alot of the translations using the above hack with feels very wrong and is definitely a bad working solution. Anyway as long as it gets the job done that would have to suffice for now.

Importantly; If you have any advice as to my previous post (the one with: So how could I translate for example: 活动 I’m Attending into the full chinese text?), then please let me know otherwise, thanks for your help thus far which I really appreciate

thanks, I tried this and it worked.

some of the translations are a bit more involved. When I view the events personal menu under “my events” link https://www.XXX.com/members/admin/events/my-events:

My Profile
Events I’m Attending
My Events
My Locations
My Event Bookings

How would I translate these? After applying the suggestions above I’ve got:

个人资料
活动 I’m Attending
My 活动
我的活动地点
我的活动预订

My 活动
Add New
Upcoming (0) | Pending (0) | Past 活动

So how could I translate for example: 活动 I’m Attending into the full chinese text?

oh and for events that span more than one day, I changed the above code to:

<div class=”entry-meta”>
<span class=”entry-date”>
<abbr class=”published” title=”<?php echo $EM_Event->output(‘#_EVENTNAME’); ?>”><?php echo $EM_Event->output(‘#F #j#S, #Y #@_{ – F jS, Y}’); ?>
</abbr>
</span>
</div><!– .entry-meta –>

thanks very much. For everyones’ reference, I used the following to solve my issue:

global $post;
$EM_Event = em_get_event($post->ID, ‘post_id’);

<div class=”entry-meta”>
<span class=”entry-date”>
<abbr class=”published” title=”<?php echo $EM_Event->output(‘#_EVENTNAME’); ?>”><?php echo $EM_Event->output(‘#F #j#S, #Y’); ?>
</abbr>
</span>
</div><!– .entry-meta –>

I tried the code, but it doesn’t work. Nothing happens

The events manager plugin seems to integrate ok with buddypress, but when trying the translations, this particular word is difficult to source and change for other languages. You do know I’m refering to the events tab on the group details page right? Events manager will add a “Events” link next ot the other links like this:

Home Forum Events 0 Members 2 Member Groups

how would I change the language of the word “events” in the tab menu when you visit the buddypress group detail page. Is this from the database by default?
