Sorry, I thought you were related to ACF in more internal way.

What is the best way to suggest this being included in the plugins export then?

Thank you John! This solved my problem indeed.

I suggest adding this into the export code the plugin produces.

Oliver

Hi,

It doesn’t really matter if you are using esc_html__() or __() in this case.

I’ve created a new theme from TwentyFifteen for you (the only things I’ve changed is the theme folder name, theme name in stylesheet and I’ve added the code at the end of the functions.php file – have a look). Download the theme from https://www.dropbox.com/s/te6m2u43u3wk7sq/twentyfifteen_acf.zip?dl=0

How to test:

1. Download the theme and install it. Activate it. It’s named “Twenty Fifteen FOR ACF LOCALIZATION TESTING”.
2. Install the plugin and activate it.
3. Add a new post/page or edit existing one to see how it looks now (I presume you are using WordPress in US English, which is default).
4. Go to Settings > General and at the bottom set the “Site Language” to “English (UK)”.
5. Check the post/page edit page in admin again. You will see the reference text has been translated but the metabox hasn’t ( http://easycaptures.com/fs/uploaded/984/4755682617.png ).

Hope this will help you to trace the issue (could it be in the hook priority you are using in the plugin maybe?).

Regards,

Oliver

Hi,

Believe me, I have A LOT of experience setting WordPress translation as I am not English native speaker myself.

The issue seems to be related to how your plugin processes the array as I have never had similar issue before.

I will set a file for you to try with TwentyFifteen. (I think I’ve explained the issue well, anyway).

I will also give you better link for WP translations: http://www.cssigniter.com/ignite/wordpress-poedit-translation-secrets/

Hi,

I’m actually using load_theme_textdomain() in the theme.

I’ve tried to copy the code into TwentyFifteen’s functions.php file and adapted the text domain and translated the POT file (created PO and MO files). The TwentyFifteen also uses load_theme_textdomain().

Can you try yourself please?

Regards,

Oliver
