Language files (.po and .mo)

    I have edited the .NL language file for Zephyr projectmanagement plugin. I noticed that the language files are in the wordpress library under the standard plugin filetree: [httpdocs/wp-content/plugins/zephyr-project-manager/languages].

    My question is as follows: after uploading the modified .po and .mo files all changes appear in the front end of the plugin, however after say a week, the old .po and .mo files are active again. How does it come that my new language files are overwritten by the old files after some time?

    Hi there,

    Thanks for getting in touch.

    The files in the plugin itself could be overridden by plugin updates.

    I believe the best solution would be to place the translations in the following folder instead which wont be overridden:

    wp-content/languages/plugins/

    I hope this helps, and sorry for the inconvenience previously.

    Kindest regards,

    Dylan
