Hi,

I keep getting translation issues with X/WordPress. On this site: http://www.keyfactor.nl/inspiratie-blog-digital-projectmanager-pieter-kramer/ I have added my nl_NL.po file but still one word won’t get translated: ‘COMMENTS’ at the top of the post excerpt.

Yes, I know how to edit .po-files and done that. Yes, I tried several ‘solutions’ on the forum. The damn word is here to stay. Please help! 😉

Thanks guys!

Hello There,

Thanks for posting in and we’re sorry you’re having this issue. Please try adding the following code on your child theme’s functions.php file:

add_filter('gettext', 'translate_text' );
function translate_text($translated) { 
  $translated = str_ireplace('Comment', 'Comment translation here', $translated);
  $translated = str_ireplace('Comments', "Comments translation here", $translated);
  return $translated; 
}

Hope this helps.

Hi There,

I updated the provided code to this:

add_filter('ngettext', 'translate_text' );
function translate_text($translated) { 
  $translated = str_ireplace('Comment', 'reactie', $translated);
  $translated = str_ireplace('Comments', 'reacties', $translated);
  return $translated; 
}

Everything is working fine now.

Cheers!!!

Yes. Kindly refer to the link below for more information.

ngettext

Hope that helps
