How to translate from child ?

[creastic]

Hello,
I want to translate in french, I use the normal way in WordPress : I create “languages” folder into my child theme and I put “fr_FR.mo” into (create from fr_FR.po of the parent theme) and i put this code in functions.php :

COPY CODE

function my_child_theme_locale() {
    load_child_theme_textdomain( 'sweetdate-child', get_stylesheet_directory() . '/languages' );
}
add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'my_child_theme_locale' );

And it doesn’t work. Do you know why ?

Thank You

Hello, you should place translated files in wp-content/languages/themes with the name of the theme as you will find there

No it doesn’t work for me.
And why you don’t have any function like other themes do to have the possibility to upload the translate file in the child theme/languages???
Something like creastic has write…

Ok if somebody wish to add his translation in sweetdate-child/languages, just add the following code in your function.php of the child theme.

// i18n
load_theme_textdomain(‘kleo_framework’, get_template_directory() . ‘/languages’);

/* add translation po in child theme */
add_action( ‘after_setup_theme’, ‘my_child_theme_setup’ );
function my_child_theme_setup() {
load_child_theme_textdomain( ‘kleo_framework’, get_stylesheet_directory() . ‘/languages’ );
}
add_action( ‘after_setup_theme’, ‘sweetdate_setup’, 8 );

It’s working for me 🙂

Good luck!
