Only partial translation

[rely27]

I’ve been using the plugin loco translate to manage the translation in French, but in the end the website is just partially translated and I have no idea why, for example the Posted By, By remain in english. Any idea why ?

I’m using the latest wordpress version 3.8.1 (in French) as well as the Dante theme 2.5

My website : http://www.la-thailande-et-l-asie.com

Hi,
I recommend downloading PO Edit, from http://www.poedit.net/. Once you have installed please follow the steps below:

1. Open the /dante/languages/ folder and duplicate the en_US.po file, then rename it to your desired language code. For example; for German you need to re-name it as de_DE.po for Spanish es_ES.po for Turkish tr_TR.po etc. You can find all the codes from this link http://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_in_Your_Language
2. Then you will need to open the .po file in PO Edit. Once opened, you will see all strings that needs to be translated. Type the translation of a string into the “Translation” column. Do not delete or edit “Original string” part.
3. When you finish translating, save the file. This will create an .mo file in the same directory.
   Upload the new files into the languages folder of the theme /wp-content/themes/dante/languages/ and then follow this guide: http://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_WordPress_in_Your_Language#Single-Site_Installations

I’m agree with Rely27 some words or sentences are not translate. And when i’m looking for it in the po file it appears…
example : in Blog the “posted by” item
Posted by %1$s on <span class=\”date updated\”>%3$s</span> in %4$s
Posté par %1$s sur <span class=\”date updated\”>%3$s</span> dans %4$s

There is “Follow” in the swift frameworks tweets for widget

Any idea ?

Thanks

Hi @sebcaverne,

Have you tried the included French translation file? Please make sure you are also using the latest version of the theme.

My last version 2.5 (update by wp) I think it’s the last one ???. I’ll try to download it seperatly and upload po & mo french files.

[sebcaverne]

In the sf-post-formats.php file, there is :

'By <a href="%2$s" rel="author">%1$s</a> on %3$s'
'By <a href="%2$s" rel="author">%1$s</a>'

But i can’t find it in the fr_FR.po file… Is it right ?
Only 'By <a href="%2$s">%1$s</a> on %3$s' & 'By <a href="%2$s">%1$s</a>'

Ok, i took 5 minutes to create a new french translate files with the US.po … Everything is ok.. I think the French po files with dante theme 2.5 is old version.
