    Hi,

    I was wandering where to find the .pot file of the theme. In ../royal/languages/ I only found a default.po and .mo file. If there is a .pot file I would like to update it with poedit.

    After I have added my translations (in dutch, so nl_NL) I want to save my .po file. Which exact name should I give it so that worpdress and the Royal theme recognize the translation?

    Last step: If my .po file is saved with the correct name and my .mo file is generated, where should I save the files via FTP?

    Thank you for helping out.

    Regards,

    Richard

    Hello,

    Your files should be named nl_NL.po and nl_NL.mo.
    There is only default.po file. If you want to update the translation you can rename default.po to default.pot and update your translation.

    Hi Eva and Brian,

    Why are some things in life so simple and why am I not able to figure it out myself? 🙁 It looks like it is working! Finally put the nl_NL files in the correct place and BAM! it works!

    Thank you very much for your help!
