This is where you can download the source code for WordPress core, plugins and themes as well as the central location for community conversations and organization. https://wordpress.org/ accounts. I taught some of them how to use POEDIT, for others I manually import their translations into POEDIT or similar platforms (such as transifex). When they have completed a translation I generate the .po file which I can then import into https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/bibleget-io/. I would therefore like to request access as CLPTECross-locale Project Translation Editor A Cross-Locale Project Translation Editor is an account owned by a plugin or theme author (or the authoring organization), which uses professional translators to localize their product. The cross-locale project translation editor can import/validate strings on a specific project for more than one locale.

Cross-Locale Project Translation Editors need to meet a set of criteria before being appointed by General Translation Editors. for the bibleget-io plugin, my wordpress.org username is @lwangaman .

Hi.

I’m currently only working as a translator for the extension “Events Made Easy” https://translate.wordpress.org/locale/fr/default/wp-plugins/events-made-easy/
There are very few of us who do. Considering my investment and the exchanges with Zoug, the current official editor, I ask to have the same profile for this extension that I practice daily and that I think I know quite well.
Can you please give me this ability or tell me how to proceed? Thank you in advance for your answers.

Bonjour à tous. J’interviens uniquement actuellement comme traducteur pour l’extension “Events Made Easy” https://translate.wordpress.org/locale/fr/default/wp-plugins/events-made-easy/
Nous sommes très peu nombreux à le faire. Compte tenu de mon investissement et des échanges avec Zoug, editor officiel actuel, je demande à avoir ce même profil pour cette extension que je pratique quotidiennement et que je pense connaître assez bien.
Pouvez-vous me donner cette capacité svp ? ou me dire comment procéder ? Merci par avance de vos réponses.
