The code doesn’t do anything to force a specific encoding. Does the data that gets saved to the database look correct? Does changing the collation of the database help?

Hi,

You’ll need to find the original string in the code – and check what the string is, and what the domain is. There’s some examples of the sort of thing you’re looking for here:

Any ideas would be appreciated

I guess I’m a bit confused about why you’d want to change the string twice? You’re either “translating” it – in which case you can translate it how you like, or you want to change the original. I’m a bit confused about why you’d want to “change” the original, and then “translate” the changed string?

Yep, I’ll try the .mo file, that was my next move planned, thanks for the hint 🙂

About the need, I don’t know, it seems obvious to me that I should be able to actually translate the string that I just changed, otherwise I see no reason to use a translating system.

Hi,

If you’re comfortable preparing .mo files then I’d suggest just doing that for en_us. That said I’m not sure why you’d get a translated string AND a replaced one – you should get one or the other.

Hi Paul,

The honest answer is that I have no idea! The plugin doesn’t do anything specific that should stop it working – but maybe there’s something extra I need to do to enable them?

If someone has any pointers happy to take a look.

I can use Japanese text elsewhere on the site without any problem.
