Non-translatable string?

Resolved

(@jaaaay)

I cannot figure out how to translate the word “in” shown in the forum widget before the forum title. I think it is on line 1001 of pg_forum_widgets.php. Is it possible?

<?php if ( ! empty( $settings['show_forum'] ) ) : ?>
					<div class = "pg-activity-forum">
						<?php
						$forum = bbp_get_topic_forum_id($topic_id);
						$forum1 = bbp_get_forum_title($forum) ;
						$forum2 = esc_url( bbp_get_forum_permalink( $forum )) ;
						echo '<span class="pg-la-text">' ;
						_e ( 'in ', 'bbp-private-groups' ) ;
						echo '</span>' ; ?>
						<a class="bbp-forum-title" href="<?php echo $forum2; ?>"><?php echo $forum1 ; ?></a>
					</div>
					<?php endif; ?>

what language are you trying to translate it to?

French

Just to clarify, I cannot find any reference to the string that contains the word “in” in the .po file.

ok, I’ve added it to the pot, but worpdress now has a ridiculous way that translations work, so I cannot control it’s release.

in the meantime, try adding this to your theme’s functions file.
```
function pg_text_strings( $translated_text, $text, $domain ) { 

	if ($translated_text == 'in ' && $domain == 'bbp-private-groups' )  {
	$translated_text = __( 'dans ', 'bbp-private-groups' ); 
	} 
return $translated_text;  
}
	
add_filter( 'gettext', 'pg_text_strings', 20, 3 );
```

Wow – you even translated it for me 😉

Works nicely. Thank you!

If I understand you right, I could also just leave my hardcoded changes in pg_forum_widgets.php and wait for your next release.

the way that translations work is bad now. it relies on someone in a wordpress team approving my changes, which may or may not ever happen !

If you have hardcoded, then you will need to redo the entry each time I upgrade, which is fine if you are happy with that.

Otherwise use the code above and you can forget it.

the choice is yours!
