Same issue for the french translation
Hey guys,
To fix that untranslated string I recommend using the “Say What?” plugin to update it to the proper translation: https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/say-what/
If you get a chance, we’d love for your to help our translation efforts here: https://translate.ww.wp.xz.cn/projects/wp-plugins/give

@devin Walker: the string is translated. But the translation doesn’t show, but only the original text. The topic should have been worded differently.
HI @westis I just triple-checked and that string is included in the Give .pot file correctly so should be accessible for translation no problem. I also tested with my own localized translation and had no trouble, see here:

My guess is that your translation file is not named correctly or perhaps not in the correct location. Review this doc carefully to make sure you’re using the correct nameing conventions:

Thanks!
I also have the same problem.
Actually, the problem can be fix by manually replacing the string on line 49 of the file shortcode-goal.php.
I’ve tried what you said Matt, but without success.
I’ve realized though that inside my wp-content folder, there’s a folder named Languages and within it, another one called Plugins. Inside this folder, there’s my localized files from Give.
Whether I delete these files and move them to wp-content/languages/give, the problem is still there.
I hope this can be fixed soon.
Nevertheless, thank you for your support and wonderful plugin.
I see that those strings are not translated – “%1$s of %2$s raised” and “%s%% funded“.
not in French:

and not in Swedish:
https://translate.ww.wp.xz.cn/projects/wp-plugins/give/stable/sv/default
When translated, it will take up to 12 hours to update the translation files (using wp cron), to your wp-content/languages/plugins/give-{LOCAL}.mo.
Thanks @ramiy
@magellan456 Basically, if your language is NOT in the right folder, then it will rely on the version from translate.ww.wp.xz.cn like Rami pointed out.
So it’d be BEST for everyone if you contributed your translation there, because then everyone benefits.
But if you need it locally, I would just say to triple-check to make sure of the following:
1) You are putting the file in the correct sub-directory: /wp-content/languages/give/
2) You have named the file correctly according to your language’s WP_Locale which you can find here:

Thanks for the feedback Matt. I’ll be happy to contribute to the French version.
