 * Hi! It seems the language of the plug-in is changed to German automatically. 
   I can’t even set it to any other language. I don’t know if it’s a WPML issue 
   or this plug-in.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Flanguage-changed-after-update-3%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi, thanks for reporting this.
 * The plugin doesn’t have a language setting of its own.
 * It simply loads whichever language WordPress (or WPML, if active) tells it the
   current locale is, and it only shows German when that locale is German (de_DE).
 * Nothing changed in how translations are loaded in the latest update, but recent
   versions did complete the German translation, so text that previously fell back
   to English on a German-locale site now shows in German.
 * Could you let me know:
 * – Which version you updated from?
 * – Where you see German: in wp-admin, on the affiliate dashboard page, or both?
 * – Settings > General > Site Language, and the “Language” set on your own user
   profile.
 * – If WPML is active: the WPML default language, and the admin language chosen
   in the WPML admin bar switcher. WPML uses its own admin language for the wp-admin
   display, which overrides the WordPress profile language.
 * – Are other plugins (WooCommerce etc) also showing in German?

 * Hi!
    - I don’t know the number of the previous version.
    - German, Hungarian and English are mixed both at the back- and front-end. Some
      words are in German, some in English and some in Hungarian.
    - Site language and default language for the profile are both Hungarian.
    - WPML is also set to Hungarian.
    - No other plugins are in German (or more precisely: in mixed languages)
