How to translate the Customizr WordPress theme in your language ?
Using the Loco Translate plugin
We recommend to use the
Loco Translate free plugin that you can install from your WordPress admin, in the plugins page.
- Make sure that the option Loco Translate -> Settings -> Compiling MO files -> Include Fuzzy strings is unchecked
- Go to Loco Translate -> Themes
- Click on the theme name (under Bundle name)
- Hover on the translation you want to customize. We'll use German ( de_DE ) for this example.
- Click on Copy
- Under "1.Choose a language" choose the language you need (e.g. German ) and make sure that "2. Choose a location" is set to Custom (you don't want any change loss on a theme update)
- Under "3.Template options" choose Copy target translations from "de_DE" (so that you start with our own set of translations) and check "Use de_DE as template when running Sync" (so that you want need to re-scan the whole project when new localized strings are added)
- Click on "Start translating"
