    Hi,

    I was gonna edit some translations for event manager plugin which had my languange already translated to 100% out of box… because of this it stated the translations was in stock folder and would be removed if WP updated those. So I went to the “move” tab and chose custom folder – which I usually do when adding my own language if its not present.

    After this all the translations disapeared.

    I tried using the “restore” feature but to no effect.

    Any idea how to restore and get the translations to be put in the custom folder instead of system folder?

    Best regards,

    Flamuren

    Ok sorry… I just used the move feature and put them back in system folder. Now it translates again.

    But how can I move them to custom folder to keep the translations if I update?

    If the custom folder doesn’t work, then you won’t be able to save your files there. There are many reasons it may not work, but the most common cause is the translations being requested before Loco Translate has been allowed to start up. (see related FAQ). There is nothing my plugin can do in this situation to force itself to load earlier.

    If your only choice is to save translations in the “system” folder, then you will have to disable automatic translation updates for the Event Manager plugin. I mention this briefly in another related FAQ, but please consult WordPress documentation for the most up-to-date methods of controlling automatic updates.
