2 notes regarding your own answer: try to not access on super global variables directly, but using filter_input your code throw a notice if $_GET[‘lang’] is not set So your code can be improved: function toscho_change_language() { return ‘bn_BD’; } if ( filter_input( INPUT_GET, ‘lang’, FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING ) === ‘bn’ ) { add_filter( ‘locale’, ‘toscho_change_language’ ); … Read more
Use get_post_types( [‘public’ => TRUE ], ‘objects’ );. This will return the already translated post type labels and other information. Example for tests: add_action( ‘wp_footer’, function() { $post_types = get_post_types( [ ‘public’ => TRUE, ‘_builtin’ => TRUE ], ‘objects’ // complete information, not just the name ); foreach ( $post_types as $slug => $arguments ) … Read more
Locale comes from WPLANG constant defined in wp-config.php. In the last version of WordPress (4.0, maybe 3.9) something is changing. You can install more languages setting WPLANG to different locale. Then you can select the language in the backend from Settings > General > Site language and set locale in the header. It seems that … Read more
You have slight timing issues because you generate title first (in constructor call), but postpone text domain load to later (init at default priority). Text domain mus be loaded for __() to translate correctly. Those are not “lazy”, they generate and return strings right where they are called. Text domain should be loaded very early, … Read more
.po and .mo files are for translating strings in code files. For translating post content use a translation plugin. I’ve used a few and find WPML to be the best in many aspects. Incidentally, they have a built-in workflow for translating both content and strings in code files.
It had to do with the file path for the required items I found an answer at this location that got it to work: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5647075/fatal-error-require-once-function-require-failed-opening-required
If you want to use load_textdomain you must also specify the file name: function my_custom_locale() { load_textdomain(‘my-name’, get_stylesheet_directory().’/languages/my-name- ‘.get_locale().’.mo’); } add_action(‘after_setup_theme’, ‘my_custom_locale’); In my example I added custom translations used in additional template files placed inside the theme-child folder, where I also added the languages files folder (es. my-name-it_IT.mo, my-name-en_GB.mo). I added the code in … Read more
When you distribute a theme or plugin you should “own”* the code. If you need the framework as part of the theme then include it as part of your theme code and make any modification you require. Use a source version control tool like git to be able to rebase your changes when a newer … Read more
Disclaimer This is not a complete answer, because I can’t really handle signs I don’t know. It should help to point you in the right direction. My (basic) solution Taken from StackExchange, I created this function for your functions.php: function ArabicDate( $time = false ) { if ( $time === false ) { $time = … Read more
Wrap the elements of $search and $replace arrays into __() function to get the translated strings: function search_replace_search() { $search_term = esc_attr( apply_filters( ‘the_search_query’, get_search_query( false ) ) ); // Get search term $search = array( __(‘word1’), __(‘word2’) ); $replace = array( __(‘something 1’), __(‘something 2’) ); $replacePairs = array_combine($search, $replace); echo strtr($search_term, $replacePairs); } … Read more
