## Description

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.

You don’t 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.

#### Extra information

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.

The Portuguese Orthographic Agreement form available in the WordPress repository
is mainly obtained by conversion with Lince software, by [ILTEC](http://www.portaldalinguaportuguesa.org/?action=lince).

#### Credits

This project is being curated by the [WordPress Portuguese Community](http://wp-portugal.com)
and replaces [PT Variants](https://pt.wordpress.org/plugins/pt-variants/), now that
the Portuguese (AO90) is included in [GlotPress](https://translate.wordpress.org/locale/pt).
Let us know if it’s useful or if something isn’t right.

The ideas behind this plugin were suggested by [Preferred Languages](https://github.com/swissspidy/preferred-languages),
[Pascal Birchler’s](https://profiles.wordpress.org/swissspidy) plugin available 
on GitHub.

The plugin’s banner is blatantly inspired on this [template](http://pt.365psd.com/psd/free-psd-switch-buttons-template-53516).

## Installation

Use the included automatic install feature on your WordPress admin panel and search
for “PT AO90”. That’s it. No options, just activate PT AO90 and you’re ready to 
go!

### 󠀁[Agora WordPress em PT AO90 com fallback para PT pré-AO90](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/agora-wordpress-em-pt-ao90-com-fallback-para-pt-pre-ao90/)󠁿

Finalmente passa a existir uma solução para todos aqueles que querem ter a interface
do WordPress em Português com acordo ortográfico de 1990, mas com fallback para 
Português pré-acordo. É da máxima importância a utilização deste plugin, ou para
todos os temas e plugins para os quais não exista tradução em PT AO90, o WordPress
utilizará por omissão o Inglês.
