Hi,

I installed WordPress (3.8) and BBpress (2.4) in arab for a client.
But I can’t have both translations at the same time…

If I want to have WordPress in arab, it only works if I to tweak the wp-config this way: define(‘WPLANG’, ‘ar_AR’); -> then, BBpress remains in english

So far, it’s one OR the other, but I would like, logically, one AND the other.

So…what can I do?

Thanks

You should use define(‘WPLANG’, ‘ar’); as both WordPress & bbPress Arabic translations use ar

Thank you for your answer.

Well, I must insist:
If ‘ar’ is used, only BBpress is in arabic and if ‘ar_AR’ is used, only WordPress is in arabic.

What you point out may be so in writing but pointing it out will not change the fact that it’s not working in real life.
It’s quick and easy to verify and the marge of error of doing it wrong is very small.
So, I’m quite positive.

So, what are my options then?

Thank you for your help.

From what I can see if you use just ‘ar’ it should work for both as per https://ar.wordpress.org/

Try contacting the Arabic translation via https://ar.wordpress.org/contact/

You could also ask the question on https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/
