Loco translation prioritization

  • We need our own unique translation, so we don’t want to use WP system folders WP_LANG_DIR, we don’t need to update translations from the cloud.
    But when there is an existing custom translation file (like French, German, and Hungarian) which is located on the safe location recommended by Loco Translate wp-content/languages/loco/?it is not being prioritized, therefore, the prebuilt translations in the plugin are the ones being loaded first, overriding the translation made by the user.
    Is there a way to give priority to the location recommended by Loco Translate?

    Hi Vladimir Bender,

    Thank you for reaching out.

    For your custom translations to take priority, it’s recommended to place them in the System languages directory for plugins. This ensures that your custom translations are loaded before the plugin’s default translations.

    Here is the recommended location:
    wp-content/languages/plugins/

    By placing your translation files here, WordPress will prioritize them over the prebuilt translations provided by the plugin.

    If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, please let us know.

    Best regards,

    brianvu-tp

    The answer is incorrect. Read the question more carefully:

    System directory is not safe location.

    We need our own unique translation, so we don’t want to use WP system folders WP_LANG_DIR, we don’t need to update translations from the cloud.
