Multistore - one language for two theme

[klifort]

I have a multistore store (PS 1.7.6.4) that has 2 stores (DE and AT) and one DE language, I need the same texts to be translated differently for each store.

I did this for the DE store by adding a classic template, and for the AT store, a child_theme was created with "parent: classic", which only contains the assets and translations folder. Well, the translations are not separate, when I change the text for AT, the text changes for DE as well.

 
Maybe someone had something similar.

Not sure if child-themes really support different translations. Maybe another option would be to copy German to German-AT language? Test it carefully on a test-instance first before messing-up your live shop 😉

The de-AT language is not available in PS (git PrestaShop / TranslationFiles), as it adds the AT iso code and the de-AT language code, it is an error 

Invalid resource provided: "1.2"; Errors: [ERROR 1824] Element '{urn:oasis:names:tc:xliff:document:1.2}file

 

for this I did a slightly different way (it may be wrong, but at the moment I don't see any other way)
- I added a language from the Germanic group (Sweden)
- I connected this language to the Austria store
- I copied the texts from the German store to the Austrian store

 

If there are other possibilities to solve this problem, I will be happy to hear from you

I simply renamed the original German and then imported the language pack again. No error message. But your way seems similar.
