There is a Danish translation (partly translated) included in the WPForo zip, but it is full of spelling errors and wrong translations. How can I correct this? Every time I install WPForo on a new site, I have to start all over again correcting these errors which takes many hours.

A few examples of errors:

  • Subscriptions are translated as "Abbonomenter" instead of "Abonnementer" - that's like writing Suppriptions...
  • Delete is translated with "Sket" which means "happened" - should be "Slet"
  • Etc, etc.

And by the way: how does one change the display date format from yyyy-mm-dd to dd-mm-yyyy? Setting it in the WP preferences has no effect?

Hi @frokjar,

You can do that using Hosting Service cPanel > phpMyAdmin Database Manager.

1. Using that tool open first website database and export wp_wpforo_phrases table
2. In second website database make sure the table prefix is the same wp_ , delete that table and import the translated (first website) exported wp_wpforo_phrases table.

oh @frokjar, sorry.

Are you sure the "WordPress Date/Time Format" option is enabled? The option is located in the Dashboard > Forums > Settings > Features admin page. 

More info here:

I have overlooked that ! Or rather I did not know the function was there.

Thanks again!
