    Hi,
    I used Loco Translate to translate the plugin pages in french.

    However, after updating the plugin today, all translations have been lost.

    I saw this post which seems to explain why – could you consider adding compatibility for it?

    Thanks

    I’m afraid you can’t unless you saved a PO/MO file somewhere on your computer. Some themes/plugins allow you to put translations in the folder /wp-content/languages/ which is the main languages folder used by WordPress. That folder is update safe and your translations won’t be lost while updating. If your theme/plugin does not allow it, contact its author and ask him to include that path in the code of the plugin/theme.

  • Hello Sbz, sorry to hear all your translation efforts disappeared. Yikes, that’s rather frustrating.

    Not so sure how Loco Translate works, although our plugin seems to be compatible without researching further.

    We have commissioned an official translation of MailPoet 3 in French (and 8 other big languages) which is in the process of being done.

    Maybe you can wait for our official translation?
