I followed the link you provided and they share an “el.mo” file. I guess I shouldn’t have spent 7 hours last night translating mu..
Anyway, my problem wasn’t the file, I already had mine. The directory I’ve put it in is “/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-languages/” and it’s named buddypress-el_GR.mo. I saw in another thread that the directory should be “/wp-content/mu-plugins/buddypress/bp-languages/”, is that my fault?
I also changed the language in the wp-config.php file to “define (‘WPLANG’, ‘el’);” and it didn’t work, so I created a folder named “languages” in “/wp-content/”. It still didn’t work.
AFAIK, you have to use the same language in WPMU as in BuddyPress. BuddyPress gets the language setting from WPMU. There is some info about the greek WPMU translation here, but I don’t read greek, so it’s not necessarily the info you need
But you’ve named the file(s) right, you only need the .mo file in your
bp-languagesfolder.So basically you need to use the same language in WPMU that you want to use in BP. So get the greek WPMU translation, upload it to you WPMU install, and change the language in you admin section…

Ahhh, I found the error…
Some of the things I\’ve done on my installation was done before I translated and uploaded the .mo file.
When you do an activity, let\’s say you write on a group wire. The whole thing including the text wrote on the wire of the group is stored in the DB (in the table
wp_bp_activity_sitewide), and thus if you change the language that will not change…But when you do something new, then the correct language is shown (and stored in the DB).
So changing the language after you\’ve done something in your BuddyPress install is not a good idea

Yea, I know. It _should_ work. But noooo
It’s probably an easy answer to it. I just don’t see it…
Hope someone can give me some hints on what’s causing this. Thanks for your suggestions DJPaul and Arturo!

Hi all, and congrats on the 1.0 milestone!
I’ve translated the 1.0 into Norwegian, but I have a problem with translation of text that starts in the code with
sprintf( __('%s created the group %s', 'buddypress'), $u.......That text is not translated. The translation is there (in the .mo file) and everything else is translated just fine.
Does anyone have an idea on what’s going on?

Hi..
I translated the buddypress.pot file into greek, using PoEdit, and I saved it as buddypress-el.po . I then ran a command that converted the .po file into .mo . Now I had 2 files that needed to be uploaded to /wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-languages, so I did that.
Having uploaded the files, I edited wp-config.php so as to change the WPLANG value. The line looked like this \”define (\’WPLANG\’, \’el\’);\”.
Having done all this, the language is still english and I have absolutely no idea why that happens.
I\’d appreciate any help.
Something strange happening on my install.
I didn’t touch my computer for the day, and I only use my laptop to configure my buddypress install. But my buddypress is updated with the latest release, as of 29th. So my custom file and translation files are deleted by the buddypress update.
If my server is hacked, I’d know…but it’s only buddypress acting strange not wpmu or any other files on my host.
I totally forgot about the wp’s plugin up grade system that when you update plugins, old files are deleted once in order to install new ones.
What is written in the document is not exact, so make sure you backup bp-custom and your translations (po,mo) files local before upgrade via plugin’s system.
Since the language file you’ll be creating (and the bp-custom.php file that loads it) aren’t in the BuddyPress SVN repository or BuddyPress download packages they will not be overwritten when you upgrade to a new BuddyPress version.
Some questions….
1) Remove all your bp widgets. (Done that)
2) Open translation.po
(Where is that file located?)
3) Find bp-core/bp-core-widgets.php (it is mentioned many times and write down the line numbers)
(Didn’t find it….) ??
4) Open mu-plugins/bp-core/bp-core-widgets.php
5) Translate manually the lines where the translation file was supposed to do it.
(Can anyone tell me the line numbers?)
6) re-upload mu-plugins/bp-core/bp-core-widgets.php
7) activate widgets that now will be named on your translation language e.g. “welcome” will be “Bienvenido”
send me a beer!(Ill send you 20 beers if you help me)
Thanks yall!!
