Hi all
After a lot of digging i´ve found that the only way to translate the Topic Status dropdown strings is via the “bbpress/includes/topics/functions.php”, around line 1963, we have:

function bbp_get_topic_statuses() {
	return apply_filters( 'bbp_get_topic_statuses', array(
		bbp_get_public_status_id()  => _x( 'Aberto',    'Open the topic',        'bbpress' ),
		bbp_get_closed_status_id()  => _x( 'Fechado',  'Close the topic',       'bbpress' ),
		bbp_get_spam_status_id()    => _x( 'Spam',    'Spam the topic',        'bbpress' ),
		bbp_get_trash_status_id()   => _x( 'lixeira',   'Trash the topic',       'bbpress' ),
		bbp_get_pending_status_id() => _x( 'Pendente', 'Mark topic as pending', 'bbpress' ),

i´ve also downloaded the last development version of pt_BR.po from https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/dev but despite of strings being there they don´t get translated.
Opening the po with a text editor i´ve noticed the absense of the “X-Poedit-KeywordsList: ” which i guess should be something like that:

"X-Poedit-KeywordsList: __;_e;__ngettext:1,2;_n:1,2;__ngettext_noop:1,2;"
"_n_noop:1,2;_c,_nc:4c,1,2;_x:1,2c;_ex:1,2c;_nx:4c,1,2;_nx_noop:4c,1,2\n"

For now i´ll try to add the keywordlist by hand at the top of my pt_BR file. Hope that fixes te issues specially with the _x:1,2c keyword

What could be wrong with the glotpress generator?
Thanks

I’m looking into this now @stickfinger, if you have any updates on the testing you did please let me know 🙂

[Stephen Edgar]

I just changed the https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/dev pending string to stickfinger and it works as expected 😉

Hi Stephen

Thanks for your input here.:-)

I guess i did not understand you very well 🙁
You telling that in the en_US.po file it works, am i correct?

I´ve just download a fresh copy of the po file at: https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/dev/pt-br/default

and that is the header:

 Translation of Development in Portuguese (Brazil)

there is no Kewyword list
I´ve read something regarding this issue also on buddypress foruns. It seems that the strings after the “_x(….” caracter is the problem on some languages.

A year or two ago we had lots of translation issues with bbPress, to fix this I got en_AU (English Australian) of the ground and translated all the things, WordPress, BuddyPress and bbPress and help out on the #polyglots team https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/

The string I translated to test was the Pending string replaced with stickfinger for en_AU:

https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/dev/en-au/default?filters%5Bstatus%5D=either&filters%5Boriginal_id%5D=196793&filters%5Btranslation_id%5D=9251229

I then downloaded the .po and .mo files (at the bottom of that screen you can export these) and replaced my en_AU bbpress-en_AU.mo/bbpress-en_AU.po files in /wp-content/languages/plugins

What happens if you export the .po/.mo files from /bbpress/2.5.x/pt-br/default?

Also make sure your files are named bbpress-pt_BR.mo and bbpress-pt_BR.po

[Stephen Edgar]

Also to note, until bbPress 2.5 pt_BR is 100% translated the only translations delivered via WordPress Update will be bbPress 2.4, language packs are only built once they are complete at 100%

This link shows the bbPress language packs available:
https://api.wordpress.org/translations/plugins/1.0/?slug=bbpress&version=2.5

These need to be translated to 100% to get these via WordPress Update
https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/2.5.x/pt-br/default

If you can help translate those strings then you’ll get bbPress 2.5 translations, you can also get in contact with your locale team via https://br.wordpress.org/
