Help Translate Version 2.0

viktor · April 12, 2024, 2:16pm

The .pot files for v2.0 must be generated using WP-CLI. All the tooling we had for v1 does not work in it’s current form. So unless someone wants to fix it, there is a WP-CLI command to generate core translation strings. There’s more information in this issue:

📝 Translation warnings

status: discussion type: bug

### Expected behavior As few warnings as possible. ### Current behavior … A lot of warnings are generated by `wp i18n` command. Some warnings can be ignored, but some may need to be fixed. ### Possible solution Go through warnings and fix the ones that need to be fixed. *The file provided on the "Warning" line is not the only file where that string is used. That's just one of them. The command doesn't list all the files where the string is used.* **Instructions:** Each warning needs to be verified. The context of strings needs to be checked, and if translator comments are correct you can check the task off. If translator comments needs to be changed, ideally, need to turn task into an issue by hovering over it. Some warnings are about missing translator comments. Those can be converted into issues, if appropriate. - [ ] Warning: The string "Network Admin: %s" has 2 different translator comments.
