Update translation strings

[Kirsten]

Hey guys,

I updated the theme to version 2.40 and also updated my translation file to that version, but a lot strings are now not being translated when the were before. Can you please update your .po files? See screenshot for some of the non translated strings.

Hi,

Can you send me .po file you are using?

Did you previously manually add any strings?

Thanks.

Hi David,

Here you are. I haven’t manually added strings.

Information:
I have updated my .po file with POedit every time a new update from Cardinal was rolled out. For these updates I used the US.po file.
I run my .po files from the child theme folder on the server.

Thank you.

Hi,
Please copy the language directory with .po and .mo files and paste at child theme directory. Now paste this code at functions.php of child theme.

add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'sf_child_theme_setup' );
function sf_child_theme_setup() {
    load_child_theme_textdomain( 'swiftframework', get_stylesheet_directory() . '/language' );
}

Thanks
Mohammad

Great Mohammed, adding the function did the trick. po files were allready in my child theme. What was wrong with the old function, originaly in the child theme:

load_theme_textdomain(‘swiftframework’, get_stylesheet_directory_uri().’/language’);

Hi,
You are using the this function get_stylesheet_directory_uri() that return web url. While i used this function get_stylesheet_directory() that returns an absolute server path (eg: /home/user/public_html/wp-content/themes/my_theme), not a URI.

Thanks
Mohammad

Ok thanx for the explanation. It was the original line of code I uncommented like stated in the functions file of the child theme. But I see that line has changed through the year. Thank you for your time.
