Wordpress Themes - WP Forum at BFA
There will be no more development for Atahualpa (or any other theme), and no support. Also no new registrations. I turned off the donation system. I may turn the forum to read only if it gets abused for spam. Unfortunately I have no time for the forum or the themes. Thanks a lot to the people who helped in all these years, especially Larry and of course: Paul. Take care and stay healthy -- Flynn, Atahualpa developer, Sep 2021

Atahualpa 371 Wordpress 321

I'm trying to change the title of the Comments Form "Leave a Reply" and the content of the Submit button "Post Commment"

There are no options for these in Style & configure COMMENTS and Style Forms. How can it be done ?

URL of my work-in-progress blog: http://julesgobeil.com/wpfr/

Thanks for your help
Jules

Yes I did a forum search. All solutions involve making changes to comments.php and I hate to go that route because these changes are lost when upgrading to a new version.

I'm trying to add the required tags in Add HTML/CSS Inserts but my knowledge of CSS is quite limited

Adding this doesn't work:
Code:
h3.reply, h3#reply-title {
    value: "Ajouter un commentaire";
    }
Is there a better way ?

There is an error in comments.php which causes a PO file created from it to be incomplete skipping the translation for 'Leave A Reply'. The attached file should fix the error, but you will have to create the PO file from it to use it.

oops, I accidentally uploaded the uncorrected version (sigh) here is the corrected version
comments.zip

I removed the 'bad' version from the previous post.

Thanks for your help, much appreciated. It forced me to get a better understanding of this PO/MO translation thing. Unfortunately, it is not available yet for 3.7.1. No big deal, I still have a lot of work to do on this blog. I'll work on the contents for a while instead of the container. Hopefully the translation will be available by then.

Regards
Jules

Please, did you find a solution to get the text translated in the comments area.

I updated the comments.php file as said above, updated the po and mo files, but I still get "will not be published", "required" and "Post Comment" instead of french sentences.

In another blog with Atahualpa 3.4.9, I don't have this problem.

Thank you for your reply.

7bc: what version of Atahualpa are you using? What is the URL?

I see you have a caching plugin active. Have you flushed the cache?

Also I don't find any "Post Comment" sentence in the .PO file, in order to check whether the french translation is available.

Sorry to be so naive, but with Poedit, it's impossible to update the PO file from the downloaded atahualpa 3.7.3 pot file
The log file is attached.

here try this. I don't have a poeditor (on my mac) so I sort of hand constructed this. I should have fixed the errors you reported
atahualpa373pot2.zip

Thank you very much, JuggleDad, it's perfect, except for the word Name. Even if it's translated in the Po file, it doesn't appear on the web.
Did I miss anything ?

arugh... there are three places Name is used. two of them are 'Name' and one is 'Name ' and those two strings don't match...

Here is the easy fix - edit comments.php and change line 96 from
HTML Code:
				'&nbsp;&nbsp;<label for="author"><strong>' . __( 'Name' ,'atahualpa') . '</strong> ' . ( $req ? __('(required)','atahualpa') : '' ) . '</label></p>',
to
HTML Code:
				'&nbsp;&nbsp;<label for="author"><strong>' . __( 'Name ' ,'atahualpa') . '</strong> ' . ( $req ? __('(required)','atahualpa') : '' ) . '</label></p>',
(the change is adding a space after Name)
I'll add this to the updates for the next version

P.S. care to share your translation for others to use? Put it in the 'Languages & Translations' forum

Done and checked, it's all right. Thank you very much Juggledad.

In another thread, I guess the french designers would be happy to get the new POT or po file.
