Title: [Plugin: EventPress] Problem with translation Last modified: August 19, 2016 --- # [Plugin: EventPress] Problem with translation * [Dennis](https://wordpress.org/support/users/altermann/) * (@altermann) * [15 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-eventpress-problem-with-translation/) * Hello, * I’am trying to translate the EventPress plugin, but it didn’t working right. I already tried to put the .po and .mo files in /lang/ and in the /trunk/lang/. * The file is named right, “eventpress-pt_BR.po / eventpress-pt_BR.mo”. * Anyone know how I can make it work? * [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/eventpress/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/eventpress/) Viewing 10 replies - 1 through 10 (of 10 total) * Plugin Author [kunalb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kunalb/) * (@kunalb) * [15 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-eventpress-problem-with-translation/#post-1982122) * Are you using EventPress with/without BuddyPress? If you’re using it with BuddyPres, you might need to translate BuddyPress Custom posts. * Thread Starter [Dennis](https://wordpress.org/support/users/altermann/) * (@altermann) * [15 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-eventpress-problem-with-translation/#post-1982125) * With BuddyPress. Well, I will try that. Soon I come with feedback, thanks 🙂 * Thread Starter [Dennis](https://wordpress.org/support/users/altermann/) * (@altermann) * [15 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-eventpress-problem-with-translation/#post-1982129) * My bpcp-pt_BR.po and .mo files are all translated, and I didn’t find the “just registered for the…” line and some other lines too. I need to change something in eventpress.php? * Plugin Author [kunalb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kunalb/) * (@kunalb) * [15 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-eventpress-problem-with-translation/#post-1982131) * You shouldn’t have to—I just checked, the “Just registered for the …” line is passed through a gettext call `$action = sprintf( __( '%s just registered for the event %s.', 'eventpress' ), bp_core_get_userlink( $userid), get_permalink( $eventid ), $post->post_title );` so it should be getting translated. * If you do want to edit the core files, this is in eventpress/controllers/bp.php. * Thread Starter [Dennis](https://wordpress.org/support/users/altermann/) * (@altermann) * [15 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-eventpress-problem-with-translation/#post-1982134) * Well, I important translations I made this way, but when it upgrade I will have to make everything again. :S * The translation file doesn’t working anyway. * Plugin Author [kunalb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kunalb/) * (@kunalb) * [15 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-eventpress-problem-with-translation/#post-1982135) * Strange—I don’t really understand why this is happening. Need to test it out properly before the next release, I guess. * Thread Starter [Dennis](https://wordpress.org/support/users/altermann/) * (@altermann) * [15 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-eventpress-problem-with-translation/#post-1982141) * Yes, because all other plugins I had to translate are working fine. Well, if you have any news or update for it I will be happy 🙂 * Just giving feedback, maybe somebody else have an similar problem. * I’am using CodeStyling Localization plugin to scan the files, and it “found” all I line I translated by myself. Doesn’t know if it helps, already thought was a bug with this plugin, but it works for other things. * Anyway. The translation file have to be in “eventpress/lang” and the file is “ eventpress-pt_BR.mo”, right? * By the way, what is “eventpress/trunk/lang/”? * Plugin Author [kunalb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kunalb/) * (@kunalb) * [15 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-eventpress-problem-with-translation/#post-1982143) * OK—so it’s embarrassing that I didn’t notice this before today, but apparently while checking in the new version I checked in a duplicate of the code within the trunk folder while moving between the Google Code hosting I use for regular update work and WordPress which I used for releasing new versions. * Will be removing the folder by the next version. * That’s what comes of never downloading my plugin from WordPress.org directly. * Thread Starter [Dennis](https://wordpress.org/support/users/altermann/) * (@altermann) * [15 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-eventpress-problem-with-translation/#post-1982147) * Hmm, Ok. Could I just delete the “trunk” folder? I installed eventpress “long time” ago, last version I just get upgrading I think. 🙂 * Plugin Author [kunalb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kunalb/) * (@kunalb) * [15 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-eventpress-problem-with-translation/#post-1982148) * Yup.
