On a listing page I finds the terminology inconsistent – ‘Edit this Post’ = ‘Edit this Listing,’ ‘Favorite’ = ‘Favourite’ in UK English not US English, ‘Business Owner’ = ‘Claim Listing.’
Could these be updated in the future?
Thx
September 14, 2016 at 6:05 pm #266323Hi,
GD is provided in en_US as default language, not UK. All these changes can be made via translation files:

Please check links 1 and 2.
Thanks
September 14, 2016 at 7:13 pm #266461Hi Paolo,
I set the default language in WP as stated as English UK but it hasn’t changed the spelling of ‘Favorite?’
thx
September 15, 2016 at 2:42 pm #266828Hi Alistair,
the only language file that comes included with GD is en_US, please read the documentation to find out how to create a en_UK file and modify anything as you see fit.
Thanks
September 15, 2016 at 4:48 pm #266888Hi Paulo,
I have followed the GD translation information to the best of my ability but nothing has changed.
I must have done something wrong.
Please can you help me?
Thanks

it looks like you haven’t done anything that is explained here: https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/translate-core/
Please follow the text tutorial. It’s 6 easy points.
- Download poedit or check here for alternatives http://codex.wordpress.org/Translating_WordPress
- Open the .po file for GD core in poedit, this is located in the core plugin language folder geodirectory/geodirectory-languages/geodirectory-en_US.po, if you are translating to another language the you should copy this file and rename it, for example if translating to french you would rename the file geodirectory-fr_FR.po
- Translate GD core in poedit and save it to create the .mo file.
- Upload the .mo file in our case “geodirectory-en_US.po” to your wordpress language folder, usually your wordpress language folder will be /wp-content/languages/ if the languages folder does not exist then just create it. Then we use the textdomain for GD core which is “geodirectory” and create a sub folder, so eventually our file path should look like this:/wp-content/languages/geodirectory/geodirectory-en_US.mo
- If you have not set the language of your website yet, you do that by going to your wp-admin area, and then go to Settings > General > Site language and select your language there.
- Go to your homepage and refresh to see your changes

Yes it has!
September 15, 2016 at 7:46 pm #266958Hi again, in wp-content/languages you haven’t created a folder geodirectory and I don’t see the file geodirectory-en_UK.mo anywhere, so I can’t check if it’s been created correctly.
Unless I’m looking at the wrong website, which one is it? There are 3…
