Found out how it works in poEdit, this’ll make my job easier.
Instead of the full 100%, I only have to do about 30% translation.
If you need any help translating let me know, I’ll be glad to help
I also have no idea how the translation stuff works, but that shouldnt be so hard?!
It has both his po and mo, so what do I do now? I’m new to translating. And since I’m also planning on translating both bbpress and wpmu. I’m eager to learn.
And btw, I also use Poedit.
Hi bp community,
I’m planning on making a translation for the newest buddypress in Dutch, but I saw that there’s already an old translation for Dutch. It’s less time consuming to use an existing one after all..
Can I see somewhere whats changed since then (1.0RC) and what I have to translate or change? I geuss the trac, but Im not farmiliar with working with that.
Thanks,
Mitchell
Topic: BP Translate
Translation suite for BuddyPress (Beta super bleeding edge use-at-your-own-risk release)
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-translate/
Includes a multilingual page/post capability for blogs (based on qTranslate), a po/mo editor (based on Codestyling Localization), and a slew of ajax functions for translating BuddyPress core component user interaction through Google Translate on the fly.
Very little support will be offered for this plugin, so use at your own risk. It’s held together with duct tape and glue, so parts may be loose or totally broken for you.
For plugin authors, it will be easier for your audience if you localize your plugins. This means more than just wrapping text in “__” and “_e” functions.
- You need a directory to put your po/mo files, preferably wp-content/plugins/your-plugin/languages/.
You also need to make sure all of your plugin files exist within the same root folder and not have one go in /wp-content/plugins/ and the rest within /wp-content/plugins/your-plugin/.
Why?
For those of us that localize your files with a Po/mo editor, the file outside of the folder is missed in the scan, and those strings aren’t added to the translatable strings.
- You need to make sure you have your own textdomain and not rely on BuddyPress’s or WordPress’s.
__( 'Title of page', 'your-own-text-domain' );Why?
Because when theme authors want to use your plugin, they will need to know which translation files to edit to output the desired text without modifying your plugin to pieces.
- Be sure to include your language files gracefully. Use a method like…
function bp_load_your_plugin_textdomain() {
$locale = apply_filters( 'bp_load_your_plugin_textdomain', get_locale() );
$mofile = WP_PLUGIN_DIR . "/bp-your-plugin/languages/bp-your-plugin-$locale.mo";
if ( file_exists( $mofile ) )
load_textdomain( 'bp-your-plugin', $mofile );
}
add_action ( 'plugins_loaded', 'bp_load_your_plugin_textdomain', 9 );Why?
Because otherwise your translations will never load, or they will load out of order with the other plugins and cause things to get prematurely loaded that shouldn’t be.
In all honestly very few, if any, plugins currently handle localization correctly. Even outside of the BuddyPress world there are thousands of plugins that are English only without a method to localize them properly.
Taking the steps mentioned above will really help widen the audience of your plugin, and make sure that your users are able to translate and modify the verbiage it uses without hacking the core.
Hi DJPaul,
here i am with a discussion you proposed here:
http://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/1202
A missing translation has nothing to do with misconfigurtion i think. And the indicated words are not translated.
The variable %2$s shows a wrong path, but shows something. And despite of what is written, my template is coming from the right place.
Go to view yourself and explain me what could be wrong. I’m very interested !
Topic: BuddyPress i18n Topics
Time to time I post problems of BuddyPress not supporting i18n other than translation. There’re lots of limitations for non English users. For example, making group names in own language often returns 404, etc.
Some moderators say they carefully watch this, but my other topics never get response from moderators or core developers. Maybe one is not enough to raise awareness and drive them to take actions.
So anyone using BuddyPress other than English, please post your experiences, discuss, and find solutions together.
1): done with 1.1.1.
5): Think its done

7) Create new group works, but when the user add at step 4 an avatar bp brings this message on an blank page:
(Link:http://test.de/members/admin/groups/create/step/group-avatar)
Bist du sicher, dass du das tun möchtest?
Bitte nochmal versuchen.
Browser back > click on “next step” > same error.
Browser back > click on “previous step” >bp site loads but without content at step 2
The group is created with the avatar! Wrong link in the “step” buttons?
Test on firefox > no problem! Think its only on ie!
Create group headlines without translation9) Admin doesnt see invisible groups from other users. Not good, there is no control!
No trac, but you can just send patches or code through my profile or irc. The svn at the moment is temporary until Erwin takes over again. I should note, that while testing is really appreciated and that you for sure can use the plugin as is, there is no guarantee that Erwin will actually use this code base and he could take a different direction all together. Just to disclaim on my part
So, also new features will not be implemented as the base code first needs to be accepted.That being said. On what url or you missing icons? I might have completely overlooked it. I have gone through a LOT of code, so it easy to miss something. I’ll fix the translation as well. Thanks…
I just set up a new event, and the issue with the location still exists
This could be because you have upgraded? On a clean install I am pretty sure this is not the case, but I will verify later today.
If you’re like me and really like customizing BuddyPress to fit your needs, then sometimes the built in BuddyPress verbiage might not fit for your particular website. Maybe you need to rename “Wire” to “Wall” or you don’t like that avatars are called “Avatars” and want to rename them “Profile Pictures,” well it’s actually way easier to do than you’d think and it doesn’t involve modifying ANY core files at all…
If your sites native language is English, then in your bp-languages folder all you need is a buddypress-es_US.po file. Then, use your favorite po/mo editor to change the text that you want changed, save the file, and upload it to your site.
Done.
That’s right; WordPress, bbPress, and BuddyPress all allow you to do this. So if you don’t like some of the hard-coded verbiage that any of the platforms use, you can change it simply by modifying your own languages po/mo file.
You could go nuts with this method, and create an English/Pig-latin translation. Klingon? Sure! Pirate English? Go right ahead! Start with English and change it up however you wish.
- You need a directory to put your po/mo files, preferably wp-content/plugins/your-plugin/languages/.
