Regenerate the .woocommerce-uk-wc-admin-app.json

The Loco Translate forum has not helped me yet

As per the parallel support thread on my plugin’s forum, Loco Translate cannot generate a JSON translation file with a naming convention like this, which by the looks of it may be named according to a script handle. (guessing here, because I’m not a WooCommerce developer).

I don’t see that the official WooCommerce language packs contain any such file and I’m not aware of GlotPress generating files of this naming convention anyway.

The existence of this file on the OP’s system is a mystery to me, but as my plugin can only generate hash-based JSON file names the original question of “How to regenerate woocommerce-uk-wc-admin-app.json?” is not something I can help with. Perhaps WooCommerce support can confirm whether this file should exist at all, and why it keeps getting installed.

Hello @timwhitlock,

Yes, I understand you. This is really a question not for the Loco Translate branch.
Thanks for trying to help!
I really hope that the WooCommerce team will be able to help me and I will be able to create a file woocommerce-uk-wc-admin-app.json based on a .po file.

Regards.

@timwhitlock,

It really doesn’t make any sense to go into the WooCommerce Admin plugin here as well, but that was the only thing that linked to the woocommerce-uk-wc-admin-app.json file.

Files you specified:

woocommerce-uk-1dee949f3bc3eacc1513cb13c32c60bd.json
woocommerce-uk-cff9e44defb88755b784b7f92a6c4f85.json

is indeed in my /wp-content/languages/loco/plugins folder.

I have already checked my translation a million times in the woocommerce-uk.po file. I uniquely marked it by adding ‘-woo‘ to the end. I can see my translation in the editor of the Loco Translate plugin.
So I see my translation in woocommerce-uk-1dee949f3bc3eacc1513cb13c32c60bd.json:

“Your inbox is empty”: [
 “\u0412\u0430\u0448\u0430 \u043f\u043e\u0448\u0442\u043e\u0432\u0430 \u0441\u043a\u0440\u0438\u043d\u044c\u043a\u0430 \u043f\u043e\u0440\u043e\u0436\u043d\u044f-woo”]

There is my ‘-woo‘ at the end of the line.
But on the site this line is displayed not translated.

And as soon as I returned the woocommerce-uk-wc-admin-app.json file to the site, the old frontend is displayed on the site (without my ‘-woo’ at the end of the line).

And the main thing is that this translation is really in the woocommerce-uk-wc-admin-app.json file:

“Your inbox is empty”:[
“\u0412\u0430\u0448\u0430 \u043f\u043e\u0448\u0442\u043e\u0432\u0430 \u0441\u043a\u0440\u0438\u043d\u044c\u043a\u0430 \u043f\u043e\u0440\u043e\u0436\u043d\u044f”]

Hello @iwpresss ,

I understand you’ve chased a solution to this problem for quite a while and ran several investigations. We really appreciate this.

I checked your detailed steps but couldn’t identify:

– Why exactly you are installing WooCommerce Admin plugin? It is included in WooCommerce already.
– I do not see the exact JSON file you’ve mentioned in my wp-content/languages/plugins/ folder

Instead of investigating the file name, let’s focus on making the translation work for the strings you want to translate.

Please share a screenshot of the string you want to translate in your admin dashboard while having English (UK) as your language. You can use https://snipboard.io/ to share a screenshot.

If you want, feel free to create a ticket with a link to this thread. We can investigate this in great detail over there.

Thank you.

Hello @rur165,
Thanks for the help!

I know that the WooCommerce Admin plugin is no longer used and I wrote above that I went through different options in order to understand where the woocommerce-uk-wc-admin-app.json file comes from.

I’ll try to trace the whole path with the help of screenshots.

Hi there,

Please tell me how to regenerate the .woocommerce-uk-wc-admin-app.json file. This file contains older translation strings, due to which I cannot see my updated translations.

Can you please let us know the full file path of the .woocommerce-uk-wc-admin-app.json file so we can take a look?

Do let us know!

Hello @wpnomad,
Thanks for the help!

Full path to woocommerce-uk-wc-admin-app.json file:
https://iwpress.co.ua/wp-content/languages/plugins/woocommerce-uk-wc-admin-app.json

Can you please tell me where this file comes from?

Best Regards.

Hello,

I have done a lot of tests and experiments. All of them described in this forum thread.
I can’t figure out if it’s possible that the WooCommerce team doesn’t know about the existence of the woocommerce-uk-wc-admin-app.json file that my website gets when updating the translation of the WooCommerce plugin?

Can you help me understand where this file comes from and how can I generate it from my woocommerce-XX.po?

Regards.

Hello @iwpresss,

Investigating the plugin files on your behalf, the file is built by the build_and_save_translations function in Translations.php, which is ultimately fired every time the upgrader_process_complete action is run for the WooCommerce domain. This is a core WordPress action hook, and it basically is run every time a plugin or theme is updated.

• To look at the code directly, follow this link to view the function on GitHub.
• I found this function by seeking where the filename itself is built and which functions use that name. It turns out the filename is created by the get_combined_translation_filename method called by the above function.

That shared, these are implementation details you shouldn’t need to update the translations on your site. From all the exhaustive work you’ve done, it could be there is either a bug, an issue where this file isn’t being rebuilt based on how you are updating your translations, or some particularly aggressive caching preventing you from generating this file correctly. Perhaps this information can help the Loco Translate team further diagnose why your translations aren’t being captured.

If you or the Loco Translate team find there is a bug regarding how this translation file is built or with WooCommerce’s use of WordPress’ translation features, I encourage you to provide steps which replicate the error and file it on the official WooCommerce GitHub Repository. If your process involves Loco Translate, you can include that information so the WooCommerce development community can weigh in on whether there are any improvements possible that would enable the workflow you’re attempting.

I hope that was helpful, and please let me know if you have any follow-up questions. Thank you!

Hello @lioneldaniel,

Thank you very much for your help and work. You have described everything very exhaustively.

I wrote somewhere that when the translation is updated, the WooCommerce file is updated. But he takes the transfer from translate.www.remarpro.com. And this means that there is no way to change the translation from Loco Translate, because it processes the file *.po and does not perform the functions WooCommerce.

Whether I’m right or not, I don’t know. But I understood it in such a way that the WooCommerce plugin cannot be translated using the Loco Translate plugin? And this worries me a lot. What should I do if I need a custom plugin translation and can’t use the translation from translate.www.remarpro.com?
Now this is a problem for me. Am I supposed to decode the binary file the woocommerce-XX-wc-admin-app.json file? And who needs *.json files if they are not used to display the translation?

I thank you again for your help to me.
Best Regards.

Hi there,

I believe this is the function that manages the file creation: https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce/blob/0f0b2d5064079429f30e52335b66c91fcf081d44/plugins/woocommerce/src/Internal/Admin/Translations.php#L56

Screenshot: https://d.pr/i/HmAFdQ

Kind regards,

Hello @conschneider,

Thanks for the clarification. You helped me a lot.
But why such a decision? Why not use the standard path – use *.json? They are created and woocommerce-XX-wc-admin-app.json is used instead to display the translation.

Does this solution preclude the ability to create a custom translation outside of translate.www.remarpro.com or change individual lines using the Loco Translate plugin or something similar?
This has become a big problem for my website.

Regards.

Hi there @iwpresss ??

If you are interested in contributing to WooCommerce translations or development, you are most welcome to participate. Here is the direct link to the development tab of the plugin, with further information on how to do so:

I hope that helps!
