Translating Plugins
Some of the labels you’ll encounter are theme are theme labels, while others are plugin labels. If you can’t translate a particular label using our theme’s POT file, then navigate to wp-content\plugins and check the plugins’ language folders for a POT file.
When saving plugin PO and MO files, note that they need to have the name of the POT file as a prefix in their names. The country and/or language code follows. For example, if the POT file is named prowess-core.pot, the PO and MO files could be named:
prowess-core-ca_AD.po
prowess-core-ca_AD.mo
A common question we hear is how to change a label on a shop page, such as the checkout page. If you cannot find this label in our theme’s POT file nor in our plugins’ POT files, then this is most likely WooCommerce’s label. You can find its POT file in wp-content\plugins\woocommerce\i18n\languages.
