Preguntas frecuentes

Can I use it to change any string?

You can only use the plugin to translate strings which are marked for translation.

How do I find the string to translate?

You can either have a guess, or checkout the plugin in question’s source code, translatable strings are generally wrapped in __(), _e(), _n(), or _x(), for example:

$foo = __('This is a translatable string', 'plugin-domain');

The article here shows some examples of what you’re looking for. Alternatively, the Pro version of the plugin provides a String Discovery mode which means you can search for strings on your site via autocomplete suggestions.

Is there any support for importing replacements?

“Say What?” has preliminary support for exporting, and importing replacements via http://wp-cli.org/. The following commands are currently
supported:

  • export – Export all current string replacements.
  • import – Import string replacements from a CSV file.
  • list – Export all current string replacements. Synonym for ‘export’.
  • update – update string replacements from a CSV file.

See the GitHub homepage for examples.

Can I set different replacements for different languages?

Not in the free plugin, however this is available in the Pro version of the plugin

This is the plugin's description:An easy-to-use plugin that allows you to alter strings on your site without editing WordPress core, or plugin code. Simply enter the current string, and what you want to replace it with and the plugin will automatically do the rest! I tried it with this string: <div id="wrapper"> that I want to replace with: <div class="wrapper">, but nothing happened.It says in the description that I only need to enter the current string, and what you want to replace it with and the plugin will automatically do the rest. But it doesn't work that way.

Does exactly what it supposed to do. Don't need to change the core file for changing strings we want to translate. You will need to find the exact string name and it's location (site domain).

I was in the process of creating a webshop with a Woocommerce and Blocksy theme. With this plugin, I've translated a few strings from the Blocksy theme which I didn't translate with a Loco Translate plugin. Soo cool!
