Plugin affects public site

    Hi,

    I have been very happy with this plugin until today: when I was testing functionality of my WooCommerce installation, I discovered that WooCommerce identifies WP-LANG as en_US when english is used in the WP admin through this plugin. This has the effect that the WooCommerce error messages are not translated (e.g. “xx is a required field” messages if the form is not correctly filled in on the Woo checkout page). If I switch back WordPress Admin to “Native”, the translation works as expected on Woo error messages again. Any idea what could be the problem?

    Thanks

    Hey Gorillo,

    This happens because all AJAX requests in WordPress go through /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php and are thus classified as “admin” requests. This include form validation in WooCommerce.

    You’ll be happy to know that this will not affect any customers, because they have no option of switching to the english language, so they’ll get the proper language on checkout. You can verify this by simply logging out and clearing your cookies.

    However, be careful when performing actions from WooCommerce that trigger emails, as those will be sent in the language you are currently using.

    Hope that helps.

    Hey Gorillo,

    This should be solved as of version 1.5, feel free to try it out!
