Thanks @manesh, I finally managed to install the translations! I spent more than an hours trying to setup the pt_BR.mo and pt_BR.po by different ways but the translation files weren’t working on the Clean Box theme on my site http://www.montoeu.com. Then I updated the theme from 0.5 to the new 1.0 version and it works. This new version comes with the da_DK included.
For people that aren’t familiar with Theme Translations, find hereafter the few steps to install a new language file to your WordPress:
First of all, update your Clean Box theme to the last version (1.0 or higher).
1- I found the Brazilian Portuguese language file for this theme at https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-themes/clean-box. There are a lot of translations from the community.
2- On the language page, at the end of the table, you can “Export” (“All current” in .po format).
3- I opened the downloaded file (wp-themes-clean-box-pt-br.po
) with Notepad++.
4- From the FTP folder /wp-content/themes/clean-box/languages
I downloaded/opened the da_DK.po
file with Notepad++ to have a look to the header.
5- I completed the header of my wp-themes-clean-box-pt-br.po
with the following missing lines:
“Language: pt_BR\n”
“X-Poedit-KeywordsList: __;_e;_n:1,2;_x:1,2c;_ex:1,2c;esc_attr_e;esc_attr__;_nx:1,2,4c;esc_html__;esc_attr_x:1,2c\n”
“X-Poedit-Basepath: .\n”
“X-Poedit-SearchPath-0: ..\n”
6- I downloaded the Poedit software and used it to edit few translations on my wp-themes-clean-box-pt-br.po
. It’s very easy to use.
7- With Poedit, I saved my file to pt_BR.po
and Compile to MO...
to get the corresponding pt_BR.mo
file.
Note: I don’t know if the file name of the .po
and .mo
files are case sensitive. I mean, is pt_BR.po
the same as pt_br.po
? By the way, the standard looks to be pt_BR.po
.
8- I uploaded both pt_BR.po
and pt_BR.mo
to the FTP folder /wp-content/themes/clean-box/languages
, where you will see clean-box.pot
, da_DK.mo
and da_DK.po
(Clean Box v1.0).
