Child theme translation

[webdeves]

Hi.

I’m using the flexform-child theme and having no luck getting the translated file available in

\flexform-child\language\

to work.

I’m adding the following to the flexform-child\functions.php file:

load_theme_textdomain( 'flexform', get_stylesheet_directory() . '/language' );

and also trying with:

add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'my_child_theme_setup' );
function my_child_theme_setup() {
    load_child_theme_textdomain( 'flexform', get_stylesheet_directory() . '/language' );
}

as found on the web…

Neither of these get the theme translated.

Help would be appreciated, many thanks.

Please add a WP login so we can take a look at the child theme setup.

Hi,
Please try to use this code.

add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'my_child_theme_setup' );
function my_child_theme_setup() {
    load_child_theme_textdomain( 'swiftframework
', get_stylesheet_directory() . '/languages' );
}

Thanks
Mohammad

Hi M.

That did it! But changing /languages for /language instead.

Many thanks indeed!!!!!!

Kind regards.

Ok, hit a new wall!!!

What about keeping a plugin translation safe from a plugin update? Can I do this under the child-theme somehow?

I am specifically trying it for the Embed Any Document (ead) plugin.

Thanks!

Hi,
I am not sure about it. This article can help to you about plugin translations:- https://ulrich.pogson.ch/load-theme-plugin-translations.
