 * Hi sinaydavid,
 * what plugin are you using for translating? Loco Translate? What language is your
   WordPress installation set to?
   I think the easiest way to ensure the translations
   are working properly is by adding official translations: [https://translate.wordpress.org/locale/he/default/wp-plugins/wc-donation-platform/](https://translate.wordpress.org/locale/he/default/wp-plugins/wc-donation-platform/)

 * HI
 *  I translated to Hebrew with POEdit software and uploaded the exported files (
   he_IL.po, he_IL.mo) to the “Language” folder in the plugin directory
   the site
   is set HE_IL (Hebrew) language

 * Hi,
 * I would recommend you to use Loco Translate and use a custom directory for your
   custom translations (otherwise they will be overwritten on plugin updates).
 * Best,
   Jonas
