Hi, I’m setting up mi first blog. I love “textbook” theme, but I’ve two problems:

1) The “add a comment” in the header of single article remain in english, while my site is in Italian
2) anyway, I can’t eliminate it and at the same time allow the comment feature.

Thank in advance to who will help me :)

The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi Luca,

I’m going to tag staff to confirm my answer here, however I’m fairly certain after a bit of testing that string only cannot be removed without custom CSS, which requires the Premium or Business Plan.

It seems that it’s one of the few strings in the Textbook theme which still need translating into Italian: https://translate.wordpress.com/projects/wpcom/themes/textbook/it/default?filters%5Boriginal_id%5D=222926

Unfortunately, until it’s translated, it seems that bit of text alone can’t be removed.

Hi there,

@torres126 is correct – removing that text will require custom CSS, which is only available in our Premium and Business Plan.

But if you are willing to add the remaining translations for the theme the translated version can appear on your site again. The theme must be at least 85% translated for that to happen.

Once you’ve added the translations, let us know here and we can make sure the translations are validated so they can go live on your site.

Hi,

I’ve just translated 8 of 17 remaining untranslated expressions.

I hope it’s enought: let me know.

Thank you again

Almost enough. Right now it’s at 76% translated, and it needs to be 85%… so about seven more strings before it reaches that threshold.

Done.

Hi there, Luca, and Happy New Year!

The strings have been reviewed and validated, so you should be all set now.

Please let me know if you have any further questions or doubts, and I’m happy to assist you.

Cheers!

Happy New Year to you!

I see the “add a comment” block, in english. It is not translated yet, which was my goal. Maybe the system take some time to update everything?

In the meantime, I have another question: when I look at the preview of a post, the page refreshes every few seconds, and this makes almost impossible to evaluate the work. It remains stable only if the page is already updated, but at that point the preview is useless. Is a theme’s issue or there is a solution?

Thank you!

After taking a look at the site I do not see any English. Can you send me a link to where you’re seeing the add comment bit? Thanks!

It’s ok now. When I wrote my last comment, it was in english yet.

Thank you for support!
