The PT AO90 plugin sets WordPress language to Portuguese (AO90), according to the orthographic reform of 1990, and adds fallbacks to the pre-AO90 orthography, the default language pack for Portugal (the 1945 norm, reviewed in 1973), when AO90 translation is not available.<\/p>\n\n
You don\u2019t need this plugin to set the Portuguese (AO90) language, you can set it in WordPress options. But this enables fallbacks to the default Portuguese (pre-AO90) language packs, instead of WordPress defaults (en_US). WordPress does not currently supports language fallbacks, so using this plugin is the only way to have non-AO90 translated projects (plugins and themes) in Portuguese (pre-AO90) instead of English.<\/p>\n\n
No language files are included with this plugin. They are loaded from the official WordPress repository (GlotPress). Not every file has 100% strings translated for Portuguese (AO90), therefore, when you activate the plugin, some text may fallback to the default Portuguese pre-AO90 orthography.<\/p>\n\n
The Portuguese Orthographic Agreement form available in the WordPress repository is mainly obtained by conversion with Lince software, by ILTEC<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n This project is being curated by the WordPress Portuguese Community<\/a> and replaces PT Variants<\/a>, now that the Portuguese (AO90) is included in GlotPress<\/a>. Let us know if it\u2019s useful or if something isn\u2019t right.<\/p>\n\n The ideas behind this plugin were suggested by Preferred Languages<\/a>, Pascal Birchler\u2019s<\/a> plugin available on GitHub.<\/p>\n\n The plugin\u2019s banner is blatantly inspired on this template<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n Use the included automatic install feature on your WordPress admin panel and search for \"PT AO90\". That\u2019s it. No options, just activate PT AO90 and you\u2019re ready to go!<\/p>\n\n\nCredits<\/h4>\n\n
