Hello,

I just discover that some FR translations are not working well.
I have for example the following classes :
js-toolset-media-field-trigger (when you have an image field inside a Form)
where the text is : UPLOAD OR SELECT IMAGE
Regards
Pat

Hello,

I assume we are talking about a post form with option "Use the WordPress Media Library manager for image, video, audio, or file fields " enabled.

You can translate the text with WordPress filter hook "gettext", for example:

add_filter('gettext', function($translation, $text, $domain){
	if($text == 'Upload or select image' && $domain == 'wp-cred'){
		$translation = 'My text here ...';
	}
	return $translation;
}, 10, 3);

Hi Luo,

Thanks, this is working fine now.
I was thinking this kind of translation was done within the Toolset plugin?
Was I wrong?
Regards

No, this translation is not done yet, since option "Use the WordPress Media Library manager..." was added recently.

And I have escalated this thread, hope our translator will be able to work on it soon.

Herer is a quick update for you. It looks like the translation files have not yet been updated in the latest releases, and our developers have not provided an ETA for adding them.
