Hello,
I have installed the Loco plugin and the translation in German is also shown in the file.

But the translation is not carried out on the website.

I have tried everything and am now at a loss.

Some of it is translated and some of it is not.

In the picture, the blue ones are translated, the red ones are not.

I need help.

Hi Pila Stone,

Thanks for reaching to us.

+ In order to change / translate words. Please make sure you synced the strings first before changing / translating WooCommerce, WoodMart Core plugins and WoodMart theme. You can refer to article

https://xtemos.com/docs-topic/theme-translation/
https://xtemos.com/docs-topic/how-to-make-woodmart-multilingual-with-wpml/

+ You are also need to select the language for the backend and theme settings for admin from the admin user profile, please edit the user’s profile and then select the language for that user it will show the same on the backend.

If you have any questions please feel free to contact us.

Regards,

Hello,
Thank you very much.

Now I have the problem that I have 3 language files in Loco but it is not translated in Woocommerce.

Now I have noticed that if the language file .po is deleted under SYSTEM, the translation takes place.

After some time (update of a plugin???) the deleted .po file is automatically recreated and then the translation is no longer there even though the translation is also entered in the .po under SYSTEM.

How can I prevent the .o file from being created under SYSTEM or how can I ensure that the translation then works?

Hi Pila Stone,

When you create translation files, you can select the destinations to save files. Can you please describe in more details for better understanding?

I specified “package directory” as the directory for the WooCommerce translation.
Then the translation works.
If there is an update of any plug-in, a new translation .po is automatically created in WooCommerce in Loco.
This new directory is saved under “system”.
As soon as this new .po has been created, the translation is no longer there.
The translation only works again when I delete the .po file in the system directory.

Here are the steps I took:
1. Uploaded the woocommerce-de_DE.po file to Loco Plugins Plugins/WooCommerce (System) Path: languages/plugins/woocommerce-de_DE.po
2. Synchronized

Result:
No translation!!!

3. Uploaded the woocommerce-de_DE.po file to Loco Plugins Plugins/WooCommerce (package directory) Path: plugins/woocommerce/i18n/languages/woocommerce-de_DE.po
4. Synchronized

Now I have the German language twice
Result:
No translation!!!

5. Deleted the woocommerce-de_DE.po (System)

Result:
A translation is being performed!

Problem:
After a while, a new woocommerce-de_DE.po (system)
is created
If this woocommerce-de_DE.po (system) is created, it is no longer translated.
I am not creating this woocommerce-de_DE.po (system)!!!
WooCommerce or Loco does this itself.
