In this quick tutorial I'm going to show you how to change a translatable string in PageLines Framework 2.x
Tools Needed:
PageLines Framework 2.x
pagelines-customize plugin
POedit - http://www.poedit.net/download.php
So as an easy example I'm going to show you how to change the 'Tagged with:' string.
- Make a 'language' dir in the customize plugin folder
- Open POedit and click file/open and navigate to the pagelines.pot file in pagelines/language folder ( you will need to select 'all files' to open it )
- Now we need to find the string to translate, i used the find function to find the word 'tagged'
- Highlight the string to edit then add the new string in the bottom box.
- Now click Catelog/settings, you need to change a couple of fields before it will let you save. You have to change the team name and team email address
- Now click 'save as' and navigate to your customize plugin folder, and change the filename to en_US.po
- It should save out 2 files like this:
- Now refresh your page, it should be translated!
