Translating WordPress Plugins The steps involved in translating a plugin are: Run a tool over the code to produce a POT file (Portable Object Template), simply a list of all localizable text. Our plugins allready havae this POT file in the /languages/ folder. Use a plain text editor or a special localization tool to generate a translation for each piece of text. This produces a PO file (Portable Object). The only difference between a POT and PO file is that the PO file contains translations. Compile the PO file to produce a MO file (Machine Object), which can then be used in the theme or plugin. In order to translate a plugin you will need a special software tool like poEdit, which is a cross-platform graphical tool that is available for Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X. The naming of your PO and MO files is very important and must match the desired locale. The naming convention is: language_COUNTRY.po and plugins have an additional naming convention whereby the plugin name is added to the filename: pluginname-fr_FR.po That is, the plugin name name must be the language code followed by an underscore, followed by a code for the country (in uppercase). If the encoding of the file is not UTF-8 then the encoding must be specified. For example: en_US – US English en_UK – UK English es_ES – Spanish from Spain fr_FR – French from France zh_CN – Simplified Chinese A list of language codes can be found here, and country codes can be found here. A full list of encoding names can also be found at IANA.

Do you run a WooCommerce store where you need more detailed location information from a customer? If so, then why not let them choose their exact location on Google Maps?

With this plugin, lots of time can be saved by allowing customers to select their exact location on Google Maps at checkout with WooCommerce. NOTE 🛑 The plugin does not currently support the WooCommerce Blocks checkout. To use this plugin you need to have a normal checkout page that has the [woocommerce_checkout] shortcode.

For this plugin to work, you need to delete all contents of that blocks page and add the shortcode: [woocommerce_checkout] inside it. You can see this link for reverting to classic checkout WooCommerce doc Once thats done you’ll have the normal WooCommerce checkout page and the plugin options will show. Still need help?
