How to create multilingual website with CitadelaWP

You can use the WPML arba IšverstiSpausdinti plugin to translate the CitadelaWP website into multiple languages and run a multilingual website. Both WPML and TranslatePress allow you to translate website content and also the theme’s strings.

TranslatePress compatibility with Citadela

CitadelaWP is fully compatible with TranslatePress plugin. Our www.ait-themes.club website is running TranslatePress plugin to manage translations.

WPML compatibility with Citadela

CitadelaWP WordPress theme and plugins should be also compatible with the latest version of WPML plugin. It allows you to translate all conted and create multilingual website in multiple languages simultaneously.

You have to adapt some settings in WPML (for example, for the items), ex., for the coordinates, website etc., which need to be set to ‘Copy, don’t translate’. And change the configuration for the text (and subtitles) to ’translate’. You must change settings in several places, but nothing tricky.

It is also important to check the following: WPML -> Languages -> Language switcher options -> Preserve URL arguments

Please note that we are not WPML experts, we cannot help you with all the detailed WPML plugin configuration.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

Manual WordPress theme translation using PoEdit

Please use this translation method ONLY if you’re professional developer and you know what you are doing.

All CitadelaWP products include the translation .pot file in the ./languages subfolder. Using the .pot file you can translate words from theme or plugin files to your language.

We recommend using Poedit translation editor to translate words from files. The editor allows you to translate words from theme or plugin .php files. After installation, go to preferences of Poedit via menu File > Preferences, and in the Editor tab of options select “Automatically compile .mo file on save” to automatically create a .mo file during saving .po failas.

Once your translation is done, Poedit save your translation files with extensions .po ir .mo. From the existing .pot file you will create .po ir .mo file types:

  • .po file type created from .pot file and you will use this file for all further changes in translation
  • .mo file is created automatically during saving .po file, .mo file is the file which WordPress require to load translation

Names of files are very important to allow WordPress to load your translation.

  • Theme translation files would have format theme-name-{locale_CODE}.po
    – example of file name for German translation of CitadelaWP Theme: citadela-de_DE.po
  • Plugin translation files would have format plugin-name-{locale_CODE}.po
    – example of file name for German translation of CitadelaWP Listing plugin: citadela-directory-de_DE.po

If you are going to edit the .po file and change translations over FTP, download the .po file to your computer and edit the file locally because generated mo file is not uploaded to your server automatically with the saved .po failas.

We highly recommend storing your own translation files in the Child Theme to prevent loss of your translation files with the next Theme or Plugin update. If you store translation files outside the theme or plugin folders, you will not lose translation with the next theme or plugin update.

Correct language locale codes can be found on official WordPress pages: https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/handbook/translating/requesting-a-new-locale/#find-your-language-code

Note please that translation of words from Gutenberg editor (blocks and settings in the editor) require additional action to generate .json translation files from your translated .po files. Blocks and editor settings are based on the javascript, thus make a working translation of these words you need to follow advanced WordPress documentation: https://developer.wordpress.org/block-editor/developers/internationalization/#create-translation-file

For now, WordPress does not offer a user-friendly way to generate .json translation files for words in Javascript files. Creation of these files can be done only using WordPress Command Line Interface (WP CLI).
