Set your WordPress to a RTL language, then use the following code in functions.php or as the plugin: <?php add_filter( ‘locale’, ‘my_set_admin_locale’ ); function my_set_admin_locale( $locale ) { // check if you are in the Admin area if( is_admin() ) { // set LTR locale $locale=”en_US”; } return( $locale ); } Or otherwise, set WordPress … Read more
No, they were never there. The link you posted is for WordPress.com hosted blogs, not self-hosted WordPress.org software. Refer to Installing WordPress in Your Language for info on use in other languages.
The translation strings not only get parsed during rendering (output on screen/in browser), but also by the GNU gettext parser. This one is not a PHP parser, so it can’t fetch variables. This is the only part of a Theme or a Plugin, where you need to repeat yourself and add the plain string to … Read more
WordPress doesn’t have built-in features for a site that is served in multiple languages. Yes WordPress has features for translating the UI labels into different languages, but not for the actual content. You are going to need to use a plugin that basically keeps multiple versions of each Post for each language and has means … Read more
You can use below code for translating strings: add_filter(‘gettext’, ‘translate_text’); add_filter(‘ngettext’, ‘translate_text’); function translate_text($translated) { $translated = str_ireplace(‘Choose an option’, ‘Select’, $translated); $translated = str_ireplace(‘Original Text’, ‘Your Replacment Text’, $translated); return $translated; } But I have no idea for translating complex contents. I know you don’t want to use plugins but as my research, we … Read more
After some more reseach, I found load_textdomain function which can help to load .mo file from any location. load_textdomain($domain, $mofile);
Yes, sort of. Any localized plugin such as WP-Members runs off of the “locale” that WordPress is set to. This value can be filtered for WP as a whole using the locale filter. But it can also be filtered for plugins using plugin_locale See: https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/hooks/plugin_locale/ To use plugin_locale specific to the text domain for the … Read more
You can set the site language to whatever you wish in the Settings > General > Site Language. After that, you can head over to your profile and choose a language for the back-end. To do so, head over to Users > Your Profile > Language and change it to English. However, there is an … Read more
Best way to do this is probably by using a second, custom-made, plugin. Make a new plugin directory. Call it something like “example-com-custom-langs” or something unique to your site. In there, make a php file with a plugin header describing what the plugin does (for your own sanity), and do something like this: add_action(‘plugins_loaded’,’example_com_custom_langs_plugins_loaded’); function … Read more
You can apply the language_attributes filter to language_attributes() function (source). Basically you can do this by adding something like this to your functions.php: add_filter(‘language_attributes’, ‘custom_lang_attr’); function custom_lang_attr() { return ‘lang=”en-US”‘; } Note: Keep in mind, that you’re overwriting the language parameter; the original string (see @param) is a space-separated list of language attributes.
