So at the moment there is no simple solution ???
This is a tough one to resolve. I noticed before that someone managed to merge their pot files for wordpress and bbpress into one and load that into wordpress (and in turn bbpress)
Use PoEdit:
msgmerge --no-fuzzy-matching -o ru_RU.po wp_ru_RU.po bb_ru_RU.po
I tried that but there is apparently a problem when mergin because when I open the merged file there is nothing from bbpress language file inside.
Can I use copy paste to merge the two files ??
Youhou I think I found a more simple solution than merging bbpress and wordpress language file:
– Download your bbpress language file (for me fr_FR) then rename it using another name than the language file you use for wordpress (in my case my wordpress language file is fr_FR and I renamed it in ru_RU) then put it inside your /wp-content/languages folder.
– duplicate wp-blog-header.php and rename the copy as wp-blog-header-bb.php
– duplicate wp-config.php and rename the copy wp-config-bb.php
– open wp-blog-header-bb.php and replace the two occurences of wp-config.php by wp-config-bb.php
-open wp-config-bb.php and replace the line define (‘WPLANG’, ‘yourlanguage’);
by define (‘WPLANG’, ‘newnameofyourbbpresslanguagefile’); (in my case I replaced define (‘WPLANG’, ‘fr_FR’); by define (‘WPLANG’, ‘ru_RU’)
-In your bb-config.php replace wp-blog-header.php by wp-blog-header-bb.php
You’re done now each time bbpress loads wordpress will load your bbpress language file instead of the wordpress one.
I hope my explainations were clear.
