Warning: Loco requires the “mbstring” PHP extension.

  • I have just noticed that Loco Translate shows up following warning: “Warning: Loco requires the “mbstring” PHP extension. Ask your hosting provider to install it”.
    I installed the mbstring, restarted Apache and check if the module is loaded (php -m). The module is loaded and all looks fine, buy the plugin still does not work and the warning is displayed.
    I would appreciate your help.

    If the warning is displayed then the extension isn’t enabled. Loco Translate simply calls PHP’s extension_loaded function.

    I can’t offer server support, but note that php -m (over command line) does not go though Apache, so this is no good as a test. My guess is the extension is not actually enabled in your Apache config or you’ve not successfully restarted it.

    If you need further help with your server, please contact your hosting provider and tell them that extension_loaded(‘mbstring’) still returns false.
