Title: Usable but many errors Last modified: September 2, 2016 --- # Usable but many errors * [argosmedia](https://wordpress.org/support/users/argosmedia/) * (@argosmedia) * [12 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/usable-but-many-errors/) * This translation is reasonably well done, but has many errors. Sometimes texts are not properly translated, sometimes they are not properly localized, there are MANY “spacing” errors and some “D/T” errors. Also translations are not always consistent. * BUT, I know translating software is much work, and this translation is very usable to build on. So thanks! * ===================== * BTW: a note to all non-professional Dutch translators, editors and writers: in Dutch we NEVER use spaces within “words”. So it’s “bankrekening” instead of ” bank rekening”, and “betaalgegevens” instead of “betaal gegevens”. And in case of combined Dutch-English words, we use a dash. So “winkelwagen-button” instead of “winkelwagen button” or “winkelwagenbutton”.

We keep track of the translations in our own GlotPress installation: * [http://glotpress.pronamic.nl/projects/woocommerce](http://glotpress.pronamic.nl/projects/woocommerce) * We can create an GlotPress account for you so you can improve the translations yourself. If you want to help just mail us on [support@pronamic.nl](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/usable-but-many-errors/support@pronamic.nl?output_format=md). * Hopefully we can bump up the 3 star rating to a 5 star rating :). * Thread Starter [argosmedia](https://wordpress.org/support/users/argosmedia/) * (@argosmedia) * [12 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/usable-but-many-errors/#post-7775415) * Hi Remco, * I already have done many edits in the .po file, so I’m really not so keen on doing it all again by hand on that website 🙂 * I can send you my edition when I’m done, if you like (still working on it). * Plugin Author [Remco Tolsma](https://wordpress.org/support/users/remcotolsma/) * (@remcotolsma) * [12 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/usable-but-many-errors/#post-7775416) * I think it is quite difficult to merge your changes into GlotPress. We also have other users work on the translations. We can’t just overwrite all those translations with yours. * Thread Starter [argosmedia](https://wordpress.org/support/users/argosmedia/) * (@argosmedia) * [12 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/usable-but-many-errors/#post-7775417) * Hm, then I’ll just post a link to the file when it’s done. People can download and see for themeselves if they want to use it. * [Geert De Deckere](https://wordpress.org/support/users/geertdd/) * (@geertdd) * [12 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/usable-but-many-errors/#post-7775427) * I’m just wondering what advantage you see in creating a separate plugin for the Dutch translation? Why not all focus on the po-files that ship with WooCommerce out of the box, as argosmedia did? Translations can be updated via GitHub. * Plugin Author [Remco Tolsma](https://wordpress.org/support/users/remcotolsma/) * (@remcotolsma) * [12 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/usable-but-many-errors/#post-7775428) * We also translate other WooCommerce addon plugins in the “WooCommerce (nl)” plugin: * WooCommerce WooCommerce EU VAT Number WooCommerce Subscribe to Newsletter WooCommerce Gateway Fees WooCommerce – Gravity Forms Product Add-Ons WooCommerce Print Invoices& Delivery Notes etc. * It’s also handy that we can launch updates and don’t have to wait for new WooCommerce releases. * [dragon1600](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dragon1600/) * (@dragon1600) * [12 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/usable-but-many-errors/#post-7775430) * hello * thanks for the plugin, the problem i have that i miss a few translations, * like * buy checkout My Account * and the text that are within these link, can i change these myself or could u maybe change it in your next update * Plugin Author [Remco Tolsma](https://wordpress.org/support/users/remcotolsma/) * (@remcotolsma) * [12 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/usable-but-many-errors/#post-7775432) * [@dragon1600](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dragon1600/) These text are probably part of your theme and not of the WooCommerce plugin.

Of mis ik een eenvoudige manier?

If you do I rate this plugin with 5 stars 😉 Viewing 10 replies - 1 through 10 (of 10 total) The topic ‘Usable but many errors’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/woocommerce-nl_847db4.svg) * [[DEPRECATED] WooCommerce (nl)](https://wordpress.org/plugins/woocommerce-nl/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/woocommerce-nl/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/woocommerce-nl/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/woocommerce-nl/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/woocommerce-nl/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/woocommerce-nl/reviews/) * 10 replies * 6 participants * Last reply from: [menderto](https://wordpress.org/support/users/menderto/) * Last activity: [12 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/usable-but-many-errors/#post-7775436)
