Translation issues
-
Hi,
I have a translation issue with Event calendar. I use Loco translate, and however the Events Calendar strings are translated, they show up still in English. In my case not the the month / week is not translated, but all remained in Enlgish. I syncronized the translations, but it did not help. I downloaded the system info and the PO for the events calendar, hope it helps.

Same issues. ✨
Similar on my side…
Free events show as “Free” instead of the German translation “Kostenlos”.
All translation keys are properly translated and synched.Hi @magdizajn78 ,
Thank you for reaching out.
For me to understand and learn more about your setup, could you provide the version of the following?
- PHP
- WordPress
- The Events Calendar
- Theme and Version
Hi, sorry, I just realized that I provided the wrong link. You can find the system details on the below link.

Hi @magdizajn78 ,
Thank you for your message and the information.
With Loco Translate, kindly try moving the language files from the plugin folder to WordPress’ parent language folder (see video: https://www.loom.com/share/620e1be3491e4f4e9e56fbd2ecd6984f), and see if that alleviates the situation.
Hi, it’s done, but nothing has changed. I tried to raise the PHP version from 7,4 to 8,1 but it didn’t help.
See the video I made about the settings: https://app.usebubbles.com/6bfioHVinwmGSmkx9z38zK/the-events-calendar
Hi @magdizajn78 ,
Thank you for your message and taking the time to produce the screen recording.
Kindly try the following:
- Head over to translations.theeventscalendar.com and select The Events Calendar link.
- Select the link for your locale.
- Scroll down, and export all current translations as
.mofile.

- Once downloaded on your machine, upload the same to your site’s /wp-content/languages/plugins folder (you may need to create the folder structure if it doesn’t exist).
Hi Again,
I followed the steps you mentioned, but result is the same. 🙁

Should I delete from the plugin folder the “old” eventscalendar.mo file? (hightlighted with red circle – actually it refreshed yesterday)
Thanks
I have the same problem and it seems I still need to wait for the fix. As a temporary solution, I wrote such a function:
add_filter(‘tribe_get_cost’, function ($cost) {
if ($cost === ‘Free’) {
return ‘Бесплатные’;
}
return $cost;
});
Hi there,
We just released a new version of our plugin that we believe should resolve the issue you reported.
Please update all your plugins, and if you’re still experiencing the issue let us know!
Sorry, but it didn’t help at all, maybe we are looking for the root of the problem at the wrong place.
I donwloaded an elementor extension widget for the events calendar to avoid english texts in the events front page, but if you click onto any event inside, the titles, descriptions etc. are in english, even if the have been already translated in all possible places.
Here is the new page: https://fiorimusicali.hu/koncertnaptar/ Click on “Bővebben” text on the right to see the event itself so you will see All events, This event has passed., details, organizer etc.
Could it be that something is blocking the translations for the events calendar so they don’t appear as they should?
Thanks,
Magdi
Hi @magdizajn78 ,
Thank you for your message and the information.
Do you still have The Events Calendar translation files (.PO/.MO) in the
/wp-content/languages/plugins/folder? If yes, could you try removing it from that location? If your site is employing caching solutions, can you also flush its cache?Hi @magdizajn78
I hope everything is going smoothly for you. I just wanted to touch base and inquire if you had the opportunity to review the response above as it has been some time since we last heard from you.
Looking forward to your reply.Hi, sorry for the late reply.
I removed the the-events-calendar-hu.po and the-events-calendar-hu.mo files, but as I see, there was an update for loco translate I executed and the po., mo files appeared again. 😀 So I removed them again, but there are two additional files as well – not sure if I can delete those too.
I took a screenshot and uploaded here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1QZ-EbLPxOdIRNObTtCBcK5rbWTftIgSE?usp=drive_link
I switched off the caching plugin (WP Fastest Cache), but result is the same. 🙁
Hi @magdizajn78
The screenshot you provided is not accessible. Could you update the sharing settings to allow public access? I believe you will need to set it to “Anyone with the link” so I can view it.
