 * I am using the latest version og Theme 2014, and latest version of Loco translater.
 * To start With: It worked before, but now it dont Work anymore.
 * My changes Work for a while, an hour or so. And then they change back.
 * I am working with Twenty Fourteen and da_DK
 * I have tried 10 times now.
 * Something must be wrong. It seemes as it just after an hour changes back to that
   translation (Danish) of wordpress, that is the official.
 * Am I doing something wrong? I am opening the file PO dk-da Danish, and translate–
   make changes – and save. An it Works.
 * But an hour later it has changed back!!

 * Where are you saving your custom MO files?
 * Loco doesn’t alter your files without you manually saving them, so I don’t see
   any way Loco can be reverting your translations. It sounds more likely as if 
   an update process is undoing your work

 * Thank you very much for your reply.
    That is very kind of you.
 * I have used LOCO for a while, and it is new thing it is not working.
 * But I have always had to translate again after a WordPress update. But now it
   translates back.
 * I do not know what you mean precisely by manually saving. I press the button 
   Save. Shall i do more?
 * This how i do:
 * [
    (Three steps)
 * Shall the Mo files be any particular place?
 * I have installed the plugin.
    I have made a map called languages via FTP, but
   i just checked and it is empty. Maybe i putted it wrong place?
 * In this map there is a .po and a .mo file:
 * /public_html/wp-content/languages/themes
 * I have made a map here, but it is empty:
 * /public_html/wp-content/themes/twentyfourteen/languages
 * Hope you will guide me through.

 * As I’ve already said, Loco won’t overwrite your files without your action.
 * WordPress updates will.
 * So don’t store your translations under `wp-content/themes/twentyfourteen`.
    Only
   store your translations under `wp-content/languages/themes`
 * To make sure Loco saves in the latter location, make sure `wp-content/languages/
   themes` is writable by the web server.
