I want to translate a lot of things in the Theme (f.e. buttons etc.), because it is going to be a german online shop. The problem I have is that I can’t translate it via Loco Translate or any other similiar plugin. I am using a child theme and have updated the main one to the version 1.3. If I translate parts/words of the parent theme it doesn’t show up in the frontend. My question is, how do I make my translations in the parent theme work in the frontend?
Another problem I have is concerning the Codeless Builder. It doesn’t work for me anymore. It’s stuck in the loading page forever.
You can use the pot file to translate the site. Just translate every string in it using a normal text editor or the PoEditor. Save it as de_DE.po. Upload the edited file in the lang folder.
Add this line in your wp-config.php file: define( 'WPLANG', 'de_DE' );
Go to Settings > General > Site Language and select this file from the drop-down list.
So the site will use this file’s strings instead of the defaults. Keep a copy of the pot file in your computer to replace in case of future theme updates.
