Child theme and translate problem

Good Evening,
I Bought your theme vantage premium. it’s a great theme and I congratulate you.
Simple to learn, with the options you need. neither too much nor too little.
But I meet 2 little problem. When I pass the preminm theme in theme child becomes my theme free theme and I lost all options.
Is this normal?
In addition, I am a french and I would like to translate the “more info” to “en savoir plus”.
How can I do?
Thank you for your future support.
best regards

    Hi Clément

    Thanks for your support and feedback. Glad to hear Vantage has been working out so far.

    I’m not quite following the steps you took. The problem could be this. When you activate a child theme you do lose settings under Appearance > Customize and Appearance > Menus, this can make your site look completely different so how you previously had it setup. What I usually do is first test out my child theme. If it works then go-ahead and redo my settings under Appearance > Menus and Appearance > Customize.

    To translate Vantage you’d need to use a program like Poedit, here is an overview: http://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/how-to-translate-a-wordpress-theme/.

    Additionally you need to use a child theme to store your translation files (.po and .mo). Perhaps run over this thread here: Thread: Translate “Posted on” and “Posted in” and see if that makes sense to you.

    Hello Andrew,
    thank you for your answers. I just solve the problem by going appearance. My child theme is again as premium theme. For the translation, I’ll try today.
    Thank you again and good luck.
