BuddyPress.org

Something got lost in translation. To reiterate, the code to the dynamic link in the menu will only show up when user is logged in, so we’re on the same page 🙂

It works perfectly but it is in the wrong position in the menu of our particular site.

How is it in the wrong position?

So can i change activity and friends navigations like them ? I mean show them only to me.

Something’s getting lost in translation. You want to be able to edit the friends navigations or make those navigation links visible to you only hence not allowing them to send messages not change settings …?

Easiest way is to download and activate this plugin: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-translations/

What exactly isn’t working? Please enumerate and be specific.
For example: footer is missing, header is missing, sidebar is missing or on top of the header.,, etc etc etc.

Something’s getting lost in translation and I want the URI to your website (not the theme demo) so that I can see what the problem is, and possibly give the solution sooner rather than later.

Quick update,

I have added an extension to Bebop, as well as many other fixes and enhancements. (pagination for one )/ I will be launching the latest version within the next day; im just waiting for a german language translation to be completed, and am giving everything a good test.

So, I am looking out for more ideas. What extensions do people want to see next? is there a feature that would be nice to have in Bebop? does documentation on obtaining oauth keys/secrets need adding?

If you think of anything, just open a ticket on github (https://github.com/lncd/bebop).

Thanks,

Dale

@koki_xiong something’s getting lost in translation. use http://translate.google.com/
As far as I can gather, if you cannot access wp-admin after activing BuddyPress, rename your plugins folder in server to e.g. wp-content/plugins-xxx Then after you get into wp-admin, rename plugins-xxx back to wp-content/plugins

To change slugs you change the page name and URL for that page in the WordPress admin. To change all instances of the word you create a language file

This works like the plugin reviews on this site. Example: https://buddypress.org/community/groups/buddypress-xprofile-custom-fields-type/reviews/

You can turn groups into “Studios” by creating a language file and changing all instances of Group/Groups to Studio https://codex.buddypress.org/translations/

@forfurure Across all you posts to date it’s increasingly apparent that there is a real problem in being able to help you, I doubt now that this is really an issue with language translation, as I doubt that in any language translated or otherwise that this title makes any sense.

Please stop and read you posts back before submitting and consider whether they make sense and present questions that we can understand and help with, and as mentioned on technical forums the title must reflect the nature of the problem / issue.

@ashraf something’s getting lost in translation. There’s no bganz plugin in the link you posted and guys above are already rapping.

@ashraf something’s getting lost in translation. Are you asking how to add profile fields (https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/configure-buddypress-components/#users-profile-fields) and/or asking for a demo site which allows you to add profile fields (none public that I know of) ?

Thanks shawn, not a spammer but someone making a request for a game ala Facebook. I think something got lost in translation.

You can find the Arabic translation file at https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/buddypress/dev

Hi,
you changed the wrong file. Never modify a core file when what you need is on the public side ! This means a template of the theme you’re using.
i said “you can search a term in the pot file”, not you must modify the pot file. This file is necessary for translation purpose and has no activity on your site. With a pot file you can generate a po file, and by saving it, you create the compiled mo file. PHP use this mo file at least.

How it works ?
– searching a word: xxx.pot file
– translating/modifying a word: xxx.po file (no T in the extension)
– saving the po file within a po editor sofware like poEdit
– saving the po file will generate a compiled format called .mo file witch must be uploaded on your server via FTP

In your case, the word “groups” you want to modify is used in these files. You will find this piece of code in your po file.

`#: bp-activity/bp-activity-loader.php:189
#: bp-activity/bp-activity-loader.php:284 bp-core/admin/bp-core-update.php:354
#: bp-core/bp-core-template.php:260 bp-groups/bp-groups-activity.php:143

msgid “Groups”
msgstr “”`

The plugin translation had to be in the plugin languages folder

Ola !

You have 2 translation when running BP. One for WP and one for BP
And many plugins using their own mo file. In this case, the translation is in a “lang” or “languages” folder delivered with the plugin.

The wp translation is called es_ES.mo and is in wp-content/languages/es_ES.mo
The BP mo had to be in this same directory wp-content/languages/buddpress-es_ES.mo

You have also to declare your site language in wp-config.php (define(‘WP_LANG’,’es_ES’) and you have to set this, if not already done, in WP’s settings.

If all this is correctly made, all WP/BP strings should be in spanish. If despite correct settings, you have strings in english, it’s probably because you’re using a theme or a plugin with uninternationalized strings.

The template pack has nothing to do with your problem. bp-template-pack is a kind of guide to help you modify/upset non BP compatible themes. The plugin doesn’t need to be in spanish.

To find exactly where your untranslatable strings are, i suggest you to open buddypress/bp-languages/buddypress.pot and look above the word in english, the file name where the word is used. So simple as that !

EDIT: the concerned file is bp-themes/bp-default/members/single/settings/delete-account.php
If you use a custom theme for your install, you have to use the same path:
your_theme/members/single/settings/delete-account.php

In this file, you must have this line 54:
`

`

make google chase your content and not the other way around: Translation: build your content for users and not for search engines. there are gazillion of web sites and communities out there that spreads rumors and myths about search rankings or SEO… some even go to the extreme that they brand seo as a science where in the reality is that SEO is just an abstraction. more often than not those ‘seo people’are not even children/enthusiast of the web but rather people/marketers who are just interested on other people’s money to earn a profit and im sick of them.

Hello,
there is probably an error in the WP’s spanish translation. Or you use a plugin witch have an old version of tyniMCE.

Are your language settings correct ? View in wp-content and in the dashboard.
Are your plugins compatible with WP 3.4.1 and BP 1.5/1.6 ?
Debug by deactivating them exept BP and use bp-default theme during the tests.
If you find nothing, you have to search in plugins languages .po file with a text editor like notepad+ and track all special caracters and all html tags you will find in it. Sometimes > or < are forgotten by translators…
Begin pehaps by Achievements as you mentionned it in relation with profiles…

You can also try to reactivate the old BP admin bar to see if that you have the same error.
Put this in a bp-custom.php file into your plugins folder:
`add_filter( ‘bp_use_wp_admin_bar’, ‘__return_false’ );`

For translations – you need to work with language files (I assume welcome pack supports these @djpaul).

See this for further information: https://codex.buddypress.org/extending-buddypress/customizing-labels-messages-and-urls/

You can also try the ‘codestlying localization’ plugin.

For me it doesn’t work. the upgrade totally damaged my installation… after reinstalling 1.5.7. all worked again, but the widgets and translations on my site disappeared… Any Ideas??
Please help!

Sorry, that’s what I meant (I’m not very well-versed in this area, yet). It appears validator users import .po files. From https://translate.wordpress.org/getting-started

Importing external files

There may be the case where a validator needs to import translations from an external file (current supported formats are .po, .android and .rrc). When the file is imported, only untranslated strings will be written. Also, if the imported file contains original strings not present in GlotPress’ list, those strings will be ignored.

You can import .pot files onto GlotPress, so I don’t think that’s a problem. And, yes, of course BuddyPress needs translation.

I am going to pick up this issue and investigate. I will update on here and on bpdevel.wordpress.com in due course.
