    Really sorry – I must have been viewing a cached version or something cos it’s working now. Doh!

    I’m not sure if I should start a new thread about this. All was going well with the translation but I don’t seem to be having any luck with this phrase (line 5561 onwards in the orignal buddpress.pot file):

    #: bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/activate.php:16
    msgid “”
    “Your account was activated successfully! You can now log ”
    “in
    with the username and password you provided when you signed up.”
    msgstr “”

    If I add my own phrase in the msgstr “” line, nothing changes.

    I’m just wondering if it is OK that the original phrase is underneath the msgid “” line rather than within the quote marks?

    Or is there something else I am doing wrong?

    many thanks again for your time.

    Hi

    Just thought I’d share that this method worked for me, although I used the ending en_GB.

    I didn’t have any experience of this before and I thought this info might someone else in that situation:

    In the .po file you add your ‘translation’ in the msgstr line, eg:

    msgid “Create an Account”
    msgstr “Apply for Membership”

    Probably obvious to most people but not to me…!

    And you can generate a .mo file here:

    Thanks for your help danbp.
    all the best

    Hello again
    I tried following the instructions in the link you gave but it seems this is now out of date. There is no bp-languages folder (it seems this changed since BuddyPress 2.1) – see https://buddypress.org/support/topic/buddypress-2-1-bp-language/
    Would it be possible to update these instructions or perhaps advise me what to do?
    many thanks

    Ah, OK. I’ll give that a go. Thanks for the tip.
