    I installed the plugin and activated it.
    The functionality itself is perfect!

    I have only the problem, that the error messages are not in German.
    These unfortunately appear in English. E.g. when logging in “User not fond”

    The default language for my wordpress is German.

    The files:

    wp-content/plugins/simple-membership/languages/swpm-de_DE.po
    wp-content/plugins/simple-membership/languages/swpm-de_DE.mo

    are also installed.

    What am I doing wrong?

    @otto-ffm, I am sure that those strings have not yet been translated into your language. You might like to read the following instructions to help you further.


    @ivanlinares
    , is your site set up to Spanish under WordPress admin Settings -> General -> Site Language? If it is did you also update the plugin language file? Usually when you install a plugin in a site other than English, WordPress will let you know that there is a language update available for that plugin if there is one. If you have can you check the following path.

    www.yoursite.com/wp-content/plugins/simple-membership/languages/

    And if you see the following files swpm-es_ES.mo and swpm-es_ES.po can you delete them. Then refresh your site if you are currently logged in. Then check again to see if the plugin is displayed in Spanish.

    And also swpm-ca_ES.mo and swpm-ca_ES.po.

    Thank you

    Thank you for your kind response, these are my findings:

    1.- indeed my site is in Spanish.
    2.- I didn’t updated the plugin since I installed from scratch
    3.- I found and deleted the 4 .mo .po files in the path.
    4.- refreshed, still in English.

    thank you for your patience.

    @ivanlinares, this is very strange.

    Okay try the following, delete the plugin and reinstall it again. Then once again delete the 4 mo and po files. Then check to make sure the plugin language files have also been downloaded. Then check to see if it is in Spanish.

    If the above steps don’t help. Can you check your wp-config.php file and tell me if it has a language entry? For example.

    define(‘WPLANG’, ‘es_ES’);

    Report back.

    Thank you

    Hi @mbrsolution,

    1.- Deleted & reinstalled Plugin.
    2.- I deleted the 4 files.
    3.- I didn’t receive an update language notice, am I doing something wrong here?, (i just deactivate and activate the plugin and nothing)
    4.- My wp-config.php does not have that language entry, i do the configuration in the main wp lang page.

    thank you!

    @ivanlinares, can you deactivate all your other plugins except this one and see if this fixes the problem. What version of WordPress are you running? Is your site locally installed or it is live?

    If this is very strange.

    Just for testing purposes can you add the following line into your wp-config.php file.

    define(‘WPLANG’, ‘es_ES’);

    Thank you

    Hi,

    I Finally resolved the issue, my site was configured in MX-Spanish (México), I switched to the plain ‘Spanish’ option in WordPress and voila, issue resolved.

    Thank you,

    I am happy to hear 🙂

    I never thought about other Spanish translation. Perhaps next time someone has a Spanish translation issue I will keep in mind the other Spanish languages and mention it 😉

    Take care

    Hello
    I have the same issue, but only partially spanish strings appears in the form. For example, Alert messages are not traslated and it appears always in English.
    I already try:
    Desactivate all the other plugins
    Add define(‘WPLANG’, ‘es_ES’); in wp-config.php file
    Delete the 4 files
    Deactivate and reactivate the plugin

    But never works.

    Do you see the following files swpm-es_ES.mo and swpm-es_ES.po? If you do can you delete them. Then check to make sure the Spanish mo and po files are located in the following path yoursite.com/wp-content/plugins/languages/plugins/. Afterwards refresh your site if you are currently logged in. Then check again to see if the plugin has been translated into Spanish.

    Thank you
