Hello,
I would like to translate the phrases into French.So,

1) I translated the english.xml file into francais.xml and re-uploaded it to:
wpforo > admin > assets > xml >
But when I go back to my dashboard > wpForo > Phrases >
I can't see that I uploaded a francais.xml file and French is not offered. Screenshot attached.

2) Unable to do so, I translated the phrase directly and, never mind, put the translation in English, but nothing appears in the english.xml file; it does not seem to have changed.

3) In my LocoTranslate there's nothing related to "phrases".

Then :
How can I insert the translations from francais.xml into my forum ?

Thank you.
Lau

Thanks.

He said : ".... or Edit phrases in Forums > Phrases admin page (in case you have only one language). You have nothing to do with phrase XML files."
So my french xml file is useless.

But, in Forums > Phrases admin page
It takes a very long time to copy the sentences from my file francais.xml, one by one.
I was hoping there might be a quick solution.

To add your French translations in wpForo, simply go to WordPress Dashboard → Forums → Phrases, then edit or add the translated text for each phrase there—just uploading an XML file like francais.xml into the plugin folders won’t make the translations appear automatically.
