Because you need to make a childtheme then it dont do that
Hi there,
Thanks for your question. The plugin indeed preserves the files in wp-content/languages. When you want to continue translating after an theme/plugin update, the CodeStyling Localization Preserver automatically merges the translation from wp-content/languages with the updated plugin/theme. While merging, a a higher priority is given to translations stored in wp-content/languages, so your own adaptions are not lost.
I hope this helps. As Svend mentions, I also advise always using a child theme, but this does not effect the CodeStyling Localization Preserver.
Sorry, but Your CodeStyling Localization Preserver doesn’t work properly.
After update my theme, original .po and .mo files are deleted from the languages folder of theme. Yes, plugin preserves the files in wp-content/languages. But WordPress DOESN’T read translation from wp-content / languages. It just does not work. So I have to manually copy translations from wp-content / languages into languages folder of theme. What can I do to make it work automatically and I do not have to do it manually?
Hi Davidki,
Thanks so much for your questions, I’m happy to help. The Preserver plugin is not able to remove files; it only reads, merges and stores; it does not move or delete. I understand you’re using the OptimizePress theme. Could you also tell me the filenames that are given to the .po en .mo files in the wp-content/languages folder? WordPress should read those translations, but the theme you’re using possibly has used another way of naming those files.
Unfortunately, the Codestyling Localization plugin has been removed from the WordPress.org repository recently, but it’s still available here. We’re currently trying to find out more about the reasons behind this removal, after which we can decide whether or not it is useful to extend support of this Preserver add-on, which obviously depends heavily on the capabilities of the Codestyling Localization plugin.
@stevelock : maybe this 2 problem still occurred :
