Translating theme doesn't seem to work.

[aikr]

I've bought a theme which came with the usual languages, but I wanted it in Dutch.

I downloaded the Dutch language pack from the prestashop site and installed that one,

it didn't come with a front office of the store though.

 

With the theme I bought, was a file that seemed to be the front office part, so I just took the english one, translated it and called it nl.php.

I then put it in the language part of the theme folder (where I got it from), but it doesn't show up when I try to modify the dutch translation.

 

When I manually translate the dutch translation in the modify translation part in my admin, it doesn't show up on my site either. (I did choose Dutch as my default language)

 

Help me! I don't really get what I'm doing wrong.

 

I attached the nl.php file that i modified (the one I got with the theme).

nl.php

try regenerating your .htacess file...

That doesn't work, had tried it already..

I did try once copying one other language file to another and making the xlations. It did not work, something to do with the hash that proceeds the xlation.

 

Have you tried just doing the xlations from scratch, i.e. no .nl file, do a couple lines...save it...and there is a nl xlation file?

No, I just copied the en.php file, and translated the english sentences to dutch,

then I renamed it to nl.php and saved it in the same file that contained en.php and some other languages.

My understanding and experience and advice by the community was that this will not work because it does not generate the hash required.
