Cannot translate Leave a Comment and Post Comment

Hi there,

Are those words translated into your language here?: https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-themes/generatepress/

Let me know :)

Hi Tom,
Yes, the words are there.
Thanks

The words are translated? Which language?

Is there an "Update Translations" button in "Dashboard > Updates" in your admin area? If so, can you click it?

Let me know :)

No, there isn't such button. Maybe because I changed the theme folder name, I don't know... The words are translated in Portuguese Brazil.

Ah, can you try changing the folder name back to see if that's the issue?

Hi Tom,

I can't change name back because doing this WP won't load.

Hmm, I suppose you could try this:

add_filter( 'gettext', function( $text ) {
    if ( 'Leave a Comment' === $text ) {
        $text = 'Your new text here';
    }

    if ( 'Post a Comment' === $text ) {
        $text = 'Your new text here';
    }

    return $text;
} );

Hi Tom,

It didn't work :(

Sorry about that, can you try the updated code above?: https://generatepress.com/forums/topic/cannot-translate-leave-a-comment-and-post-comment/#post-982480

Now it is ok! ;)

Awesome :)

We really need to find a way to translate these words. Can you help please?

Hi Tom,

I downloaded generatepress translation from here https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-themes/generatepress and followed this instructions https://docs.generatepress.com/article/uploading-translations/ , and the problem was fixed.

Thanks

Awesome, glad it's all working now :)
