Get help with the translation process #
Join the GenesisWP Slack workspace and ask questions in the #translations channel.
Genesis language packs #
The Genesis GlotPress server automatically generates new language packs within five minutes of new translations being accepted.
Regenerate language packs manually #
If packs are not updated automatically after five minutes, ask in the GenesisWP Slack #translations channel for a language server administrator to manually update the language packs:
Please could someone with SSH access to translate.studiopress.com manually regenerate Genesis language packs using
wp traduttore language-pack build genesis-framework/genesis. I have waited five minutes after a translation was accepted and the packs do not seem to be updating automatically with my change. Thanks!
Download language packs in Genesis #
Genesis 3.3 introduced the ability to download language file updates automatically.
Switch your site language in the WordPress admin at Settings → General, then visit Dashboard → Updates to see a prompt to update language files.
Download language packs manually #
Find a list of Genesis language packs in JSON format to download packs manually if desired. Use a JSON-to-text conversion tool to make the JSON easier to read if your browser does not format JSON for you.
