Hi, i’m trying to translate my CHILD THEME so i installed Loco Translate plugin.
The problem is that, even if i translate the language files in the child theme, my blog still see the PARENT theme files! What shoud i do?
Hi,
What exactly are you translating in the child theme? The child theme currently supports these files to be used in it
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-child-theme-support-tutorial/
If the files are not supported, than to make your modifications you would have to use main theme files.
In my child theme i created a “language” folder in which i added it_IT.mo and it_IT.po.
Anyway the site doesn’t read the translation from there but reads my files only if i put them into the parent theme language folder.
The problem is that every time the theme is updated my files are lost!!!
Is there a solution?
That will not work in the child theme, you will have to make the modifications in the main files. Back-up the modified files, after an update replace the new ones with the modified ones.
Or maybe update the theme by patch – https://www.screencast.com/t/jw9Q6nvLF
We provide the modified files in each theme package.
