WPML Support
One offers support for WPML plugin. Be aware that this plugin is not provided by us, and you will have to buy it in order to use it : WPML Official.
- Using .mo/.po files
- Translating the theme from within WPML
Our theme provide .mo/.po language files in the /lang folder of the theme and you can use these files on WPML plugin. To use translation from a .mo file, choose the first option from the theme localization menu. The only thing that you need to specify is the text-domain that is 'One' for our theme. You need to enter this value in the text domain field, so that WPML can load the translation file and assign it to the theme.
When WPML localization is selected (the 2nd option in the image above), WPML will scan the theme and find the texts that can be translated. It reports what it finds and let you enter translations, right from within WordPress.
Click on Scan the theme for strings and WPML will go through all the files in the active theme and get translatable texts from them (texts that are wrapped with gettext functions).
It shows how many strings were found in the theme and their translation status. To translate them, click on View strings that need translation. This will take you to the String translation page, where you can enter translation for each of the texts found in the theme.
