Comments ANDREAS PETRAKIS started the conversationMay 7, 2020 at 4:44pmHi, I have downloaded and translated the thrgem.pot file to greek and created the .po & .mo files. Puting .mo & .po files in folder "languages" in child theme doesn't work. It works only on the default languages folder under theme.It should also work putting these files on child theme to avoid future theme updates. Can you fix this? 7,092Oliver repliedMay 8, 2020 at 6:26amHi, We recommend to use Loco Translate plugin for the theme translation or you can translate theme manually with .po file, pls. follow the instructions: 1. Take file languages/thegem.pot or xx_YY.po from theme directory. 2. Open this file with Poedit software. 3. Translate necessary strings to your language. 4. In software open Catalog - Settings and set Language to Translation to xx_YY. 5. Then save the file as thegem-xx_YY. (You must have two files thegem-xx_YY.po and thegem-xx_YY.mo.) 6. These files you need to put to the wp-content/languages/themes of your site. With the same operation, you can translate TheGem elements plugin. Just put translations in wp-content/languages/plugins Please note if you comment on your ticket before we reply, your ticket will be pushed down of the tickets list.
