  You are in the wrong forum as this forum isn’t for wordpress.org topics and problems.

  That’s wordpress.org and here it’s wordpress.com.

  Maybe so, but if you hover your cursor over the highlighted support forum in #1 of that section, there’s a link there to the COM community forums.

  I flagged this for Staff.

  @justjennifer that appears to be pulled from some kind of terms glossary they are using on wordpress.org, but I’m not sure why the definition (shown when you hover) includes a link to our forums. I think this is in error since we’re not involved in translating .org themes here on the .com forums. I’ll investigate and report that to prevent any future confusion/

  Hi @postmagthemes

  To clarify, you have submitted translations for French, Spanish, and German, and you need to have those submitted translations approved by a member of the intenationalization theme?

  Your theme has been submitted to the “open-source” theme repo at wordpress.org, and because it’s open-source, the process is community driven and there is not paid staff there to translate your theme for you. Instead translations would be submitted for approval by the community (or by yousels and/or your team) and those submissions are checked by a volunteer who speaks that language. If the submission seems like a suitable translation they will “approve” it for you, and if enough translations are approved (85% of all strings) then the theme will be available in that language.

  However, the team there does not do translation on demand if there are no submissions from the community. If you have translations you wish to submit for approval you can do that by following the steps here: https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/handbook/translating/glotpress-translate-wordpress-org/
