    Hi, my site is in english and I want to replace some of the strings in the english language with other terms (in english). How can this be achieved? Thanks.

    p.s. I have already the .po and .mo files available (done in a different tool).

    Any news on this?

    Hello.
    This is a forum related to WooCommerce Multilingual.
    Please direct your WPML questions to the WPML forum.
    To respond to you – if you wish to change the default language of the strings – you can either use the method that is described to work in that ticket or just change the string itself so that represents the value that you want to translate.

    Hi, what method should I use to change the string itself? Is this possible in the tool itself or did you refer replacing the contents in the actual file manually? Thanks.

    Anyone?

    Hello!
    For some reason, my previous reply was not published here, so I am writing again.
    As you already noted in the ticket that you referred to in WPML forum, you can do what you want by changing the string language to some other language, and then translate to the default language.
    I would not advise using that method as it is not the proper way of how things are intended to work.
    And yes, I was suggesting that you should edit the file manually.
