8 years ago Updated the comiceasel-en_US/mo/po files, if you want to add french ones they should be comiceasel-fr_FR/mo/po and if they have 'wordpress in your language' configured it will use them; the WPLANG define in the wp-config.php file

8 years ago @Frumph Thanks for the update. :) I'll test this version as soon as I see the update on the comics dashboard (the translation is hosted by the author and I don't have rights to access the server besides the Dashboard).

8 years ago @Frumph I just finished to test properly the new file with Loco Translate 2.0. The end result is I only got 6 translated strings. After diving a bit into the .PO file, it looks like the problem comes from the #@ line used for every string ("Text Domain" for Loco Translate). It is either displayed #@ comiceasel or #@ comic-easel. I think the #@ line needs to be consistent thorough the file in order set it up properly. My suggestion is to use #@ comic-easel since the name of the plugin is made from to separated words.

8 years ago okay update made (not to live servers)
I got a lot of interest lately about Comic Easel from French comic authors, translators and readers, so I translated comiceasel-en_US PO and MO files with the best and most complete free tool I have on hand: Loco translate. (French is my native language)
The thing is, since the lang directory don't have any POT file, Loco Translate only dectect strings from comiceasel-en_US files, not the different ones put in the en_US files. As a result, it's currently impossible to translate fully the plugin in any language and publish comics to non-English readers with it! :(
For fixing this bug, and since, the POT file doesn't seem essential for Loco Translate, I suggest first to merge comiceasel-en_US and en-US PO and MO files.
