    When booking an event, after everything is completed and you get the option to add the event to your calendar, the close button in English I believe states: Finish. The Dutch translation now says Afwerken, which isn't a good translation. It would be better is this is Voltooien.

    I tried editing the NL language zip file you sent me by changing this value in the .po file, then rezipping it and uploading it to the website via FTP.


    #: src/Infrastructure/WP/Translations/FrontendStrings.php:107
    msgid "Finish"
    msgstr "Voltooien"


    However for some reason it's not changing the result. I must be missing it somewhere, but how and where can I change Afwerken into Voltooien in the language pack?

    Hello Marc, 

    Sorry for replying late, we are not working on weekends!

    Translations/changes to the strings must be made using some translation plugins or programs. Unfortunately, you can't change this like that directly in the file, because of the .mo files (they are generated from the .po files). 

    For example, you can use POEDIT or Loco Translate . I suggest you to install Loco Translate and translate these string.

    If you want to use POEDIT then you should follow these instructions:

    1. You need to download and install POEDIT

    2. After that open the program and open the file from the extracted folder on your computer ameliabooking/languages/fr_FR/wpamelia-fr_FR.po.

    3. Translate/change all the strings that you want

    4. Save the translation.

    5. Go to ameliabooking/languages/fr_FR/ folder and copy these two files called wpamelia-fr_FR.po and wpamelia-fr_FR.mo back to your website in the location ../wp-content/plugins/ameliabooking/languages/fr_FR/.

    This is example for French language, but you will choose Dutch.

    Hope this helps!

    If you have any further questions or concerns don't hesitate to ask,
