Hi there.

The current JavaScriptJavaScript JavaScript or JS is an object-oriented computer programming language commonly used to create interactive effects within web browsers. WordPress makes extensive use of JS for a better user experience. While PHP is executed on the server, JS executes within a user’s browser. https://www.javascript.com/. code for counting words in editor ignores Chinese characters, so I am working on a patch which I intend to ship with future cn.wordpress.orgWordPress.org The community site where WordPress code is created and shared by the users. This is where you can download the source code for WordPress core, plugins and themes as well as the central location for community conversations and organization. https://wordpress.org/ packages.

It seems that the easiest fix is to enqueue a modified wp-admin/js/word-count.js. Is it okay to put a modified version under the corresponding SVNSVN Apache Subversion (often abbreviated SVN, after its command name svn) is a software versioning and revision control system. Software developers use Subversion to maintain current and historical versions of files such as source code, web pages, and documentation. Its goal is to be a mostly compatible successor to the widely used Concurrent Versions System (CVS). WordPress core and the wordpress.org released code are all centrally managed through SVN. https://subversion.apache.org/. dist/ directory, and get the original word-count.js replaced, OR I have to put it under wp-content/languages/ and play around with the hook to make it be queued to load?

Thank you.

Conceptually, I’d argue that the first option (replacing the original word-count.js) is changing coreCore Core is the set of software required to run WordPress. The Core Development Team builds WordPress. code, and hence recommend against it. That said, it also depends on what you mean by “play around with the hook to make it be queued to load”. Completely personal and subjective opinion, of course, would love to hear more from the others.

  Okay then the first option is out. The real issue is that the built-in word counting function is not working for Chinese characters. By “play around with the hook to make it be queued to load” I mean I intend to include a zh_CN-word-count.js or something else and add a few lines of codeLines of Code Lines of code. This is sometimes used as a poor metric for developer productivity, but can also have other uses. in zh_CN.php to make it be loaded and deregister the original word-count.js so that the original coreCore Core is the set of software required to run WordPress. The Core Development Team builds WordPress. code remains intact and we can make the word counting work when WPLANG is defined as zh_CN in wp-config.php.

    This sounds very good, on the other hand 🙂

Japanese package includes a fix for this as a pluginPlugin A plugin is a piece of software containing a group of functions that can be added to a WordPress website. They can extend functionality or add new features to your WordPress websites. WordPress plugins are written in the PHP programming language and integrate seamlessly with WordPress. These can be free in the WordPress.org Plugin Directory https://wordpress.org/plugins/ or can be cost-based plugin from a third-party:

If you’re interested, I’d be happy to help the author translate the whole thing but here’s Google translated version of the description page:

  @jiehanzheng, I would recommend you do what the Japanese guys did. It’s working great.

    Cool. Thank you for your advice. So for the pluginPlugin A plugin is a piece of software containing a group of functions that can be added to a WordPress website. They can extend functionality or add new features to your WordPress websites. WordPress plugins are written in the PHP programming language and integrate seamlessly with WordPress. These can be free in the WordPress.org Plugin Directory https://wordpress.org/plugins/ or can be cost-based plugin from a third-party solution, am i supposed to include a copy of the plugin under SVNSVN Apache Subversion (often abbreviated SVN, after its command name svn) is a software versioning and revision control system. Software developers use Subversion to maintain current and historical versions of files such as source code, web pages, and documentation. Its goal is to be a mostly compatible successor to the widely used Concurrent Versions System (CVS). WordPress core and the wordpress.org released code are all centrally managed through SVN. https://subversion.apache.org/. dist/wp-content/plugins/? Who should be the plugin author, and may I have a WordPress.orgWordPress.org The community site where WordPress code is created and shared by the users. This is where you can download the source code for WordPress core, plugins and themes as well as the central location for community conversations and organization. https://wordpress.org/ account with the name wordpresschina?
    
    I will look into it, see how it works during the upcoming school long weekend and hopefully include the fix before our next release. I will post any updates here.

  Thank you so much, Naoko. It’s a pretty nice idea because of the similarities of Japanese characters and Chinese characters. I will look into it.
  
  The Google Translate version is… to some extend, readable. So thank you for your offer and I will do the research.
