Change specific translated strings

#1 · July 22, 2017, 3:32 pm

The following code contains some examples on how to change specific translated strings to a custom one without creating/changing a complete translation file. The modified strings will not affect similar strings generated by other plugins.

As usual you have to add this code to your themes functions.php file.

add_filter('ngettext', 'change_ntranslations', 20, 5);
add_filter('gettext', 'change_translations', 20, 3);

function change_translations($translated_text, $untranslated_text, $domain) {
  if ($domain === 'asgaros-forum') {
    switch ($translated_text) {
      case 'Forum':
        $translated_text = 'My Board';
      break;
      case '%s Topics':
        $translated_text = '%s Threads';
      break;
      case '%s Topic':
        $translated_text = '%s Thread';
      break;
      case 'Last post':
        $translated_text = '';
      break;
    }
  }

  return $translated_text;
}

function change_ntranslations($translated_text, $single, $plural, $number, $domain) {
  if ($domain === 'asgaros-forum') {
    $translated_text = change_translations($translated_text, '', 'asgaros-forum');
  }

  return $translated_text;
}

Hello Asgaros,

I´m just exploring the plugin´s characteristics before installation. Is there a way to apply these translations to a specific forum among others? Maybe using its shortcode to assign the translation specifically to it?

It offers a translation management system and translation feature that helps you to create your desired language option on your website.

Before I install the plugin, I’m merely going through its features and looking at their documentation. Is there a method to apply these translations to a particular topic in addition to the ones that are available? Perhaps you could assign the translation particularly to it by utilizing the shortcode for it.

Il codice seguente contiene alcuni esempi su come modificare stringhe tradotte specifiche in una personalizzata senza creare/modificare un file di traduzione completo. Le stringhe modificate non influiranno su stringhe simili generate da altri plugin.

Come al solito devi aggiungere questo codice al tuo file di funzioni tematiche.php.
add_filter('ngettext', 'change_ntranslations', 20, 5);
add_filter('gettext', 'change_translations', 20, 3);

function change_translations($translated_text, $untranslated_text, $domain) {
  if ($domain === 'asgaros-forum') {
    switch ($translated_text) {
      case 'Forum':
        $translated_text = 'My Board';
      break;
      case '%s Topics':
        $translated_text = '%s Threads';
      break;
      case '%s Topic':
        $translated_text = '%s Thread';
      break;
      case 'Last post':
        $translated_text = '';
      break;
    }
  }

  return $translated_text;
}

function change_ntranslations($translated_text, $single, $plural, $number, $domain) {
  if ($domain === 'asgaros-forum') {
    $translated_text = change_translations($translated_text, '', 'asgaros-forum');
  }

  return $translated_text;
}

good morning,

the Forum is already translated into Italian but I would like to change some words (unfortunately loco translate doesn’t change them for me).

1 – How can I find the value in php of the words to change?

I attach screenshots of the words I need.

Thanks
