    Hello Tom,

    sometimes your language is so much easier, even if I only master it rudimentarily. πŸ™‚ For you there is only the speech “you”, in contrast to us German with the distinction of “Du” and the formal “Sie”

    As the title implies, the conversion of WordPress from German to German (Sie) does not work in the GeneratePress Theme πŸ™

    If I activate the Twenty Seventeen theme, everything works fine.

    If you have a solution for that, I would be very grateful to you, as this is required for a customer website.

    best regards
    Werner

    Hi there,

    Is this the translation you’re talking about?: https://translate.wordpress.org/locale/de/formal/wp-themes/generatepress

    If so, we’ll need to get it up to 100% in order for the translation to ship. If you can help with that, we can get it shipped ASAP πŸ™‚

    Thanks!

    Hello Tom,

    that’s exactly what I mean and I’ve just completed this as well as I could.

    Awesome, I’ve contacted the translation editor to approve them πŸ™‚

    Thank you!

    Hello Tom,

    Will you let me know if the translation is available?
    Thank you

    It should be available now.

    You can check by going to “Dashboard > Updates” and clicking the Update Translations button πŸ™‚

    Hello Tom,

    “Dashboard> Updates”?

    I can not find this. There are also no updates of the theme displayed.

    Or did I misunderstand something?

    You don’t see anything about translations in there?: https://codex.wordpress.org/Dashboard_Updates_Screen#Translations

    No.
    Translation:
    All translations are up to date.

    Well that’s annoying, you can see the language is at 99% now: https://translate.wordpress.org/locale/de/formal/wp-themes/generatepress

    If you go here: https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-themes/generatepress/de/formal

    Click “Export” at the bottom. It should download a .po file.

    Upload that file into wp-content/translations/themes (or something similar) using FTP or your file manager inside your hosting control panel.

    You should see a bunch of other .po files in there.

    Let me know πŸ™‚

    Hello Tom,

    Alright. But did not work until after I renamed the file in generatepress-de_DE_formal.po.

    One more question. I always use a child of a theme. How can I ensure that subsequent changes to a translation or plugin are not lost during an update?

    Thanks again for your help.

    Since you added them in wp-content/translations, they won’t be lost when you update πŸ™‚
