    How do I translate the categories displayed on the map on gdhome? I am not seeing the existing translation “orte” in the geodirectory po file.

    Hello!

    I’m not familiar with “Orte” either. What language is that?

    Could it be that “Places” or another CPT was already renamed at GD > Custom Post Types

    Take a look at the Custom Post Types Addon

    It’s German for places but i don’t see the translation anywhere. The custom post types isn’t used on this site.

    Hello!

    There’s no need to bump your topics, it doesn’t move them up in the order they are addressed, it actually bumps them ‘down’. https://wpgeodirectory.com/support-policy/

    Let’s see if we can get on the same page and find a resolution. With your last post here, I am not sure what you are asking for. First you asked where “orte” came from, then you say you translated places to something besides orte, and then you say orte is not coming through, but your first post and the image shows orte coming through. 1# You want to change the text ‘orte’ at the lower left of the map?

    Here’s a search/filter to see the places where ‘orte’ occurs in the German file for core. https://wpgeodirectory.com/translate/projects/geodirectory/de/default/?filters%5Bterm%5D=orte&filters%5Buser_login%5D=&filters%5Bstatus%5D=current_or_waiting_or_fuzzy_or_untranslated&filter=Filter&sort%5Bby%5D=priority&sort%5Bhow%5D=desc

    It shows ‘orte’ is the places slug, amongst others. 2# Do you already have the german core file installed?

    The map filter on the bottom, where it shows ‘orte’, is showing the CPT information, not categories. If you click events, then all the events categories show on the right. Click places, all the places categories show on the right.

    3# Does that clarify the situation? Is there a problem with the core translation not showing up?

    https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/translate-core/

    Let us know what you are looking for here and we will be happy to help. You can also include a site URL and WP Admin to allow us to take a look. We would need FTP to verify the location of the translation files.

    Thanks

    Hi Alex,

    I need to translate change the word from “Orte” to “Kinderkleiderbörse”.

    I looked in the following po files but i don’t see the places URL slug.
    /wp-content/plugins/geodirectory/geodirectory-languages/geodirectory-de_DE.po
    /wp-content/plugins/geodirectory/geodirectory-languages/geodirectory-en_US.po
    Where is that file located?

    I’m not sure if the german core file is installed. how do I verify?

    Hello,

    The German translation of GeoDirectory Core should be located on your server in the following places:

    /wp-content/languages/plugins/geodirectory-de_DE.po
    /wp-content/languages/plugins/geodirectory-de_DE.mo

    Inside that file you will find ‘places’ translated as ‘orte’ and can change it to “Kinderkleiderbörse”

    The steps for translation are outlined here: https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/translate-core/

    Thanks Alex. That’s where I made the change but I did not realize there was an error on poedit. We opened the file on a different machine , resaved it and it was all good. Thanks again for your help 🙂
