Title: Problems translating WPadverts Last modified: August 30, 2016 --- # Problems translating WPadverts * Resolved [ibiza69](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ibiza69/) * (@ibiza69) * [10 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-translating-wpadverts/) * Hi, thanks in advance for the plugin šŸ˜‰ * I have a problem, I installed wpadverts plugin [https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpadverts](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpadverts) * And next, I went to translate it at LOCO Translate. Everything went fine, the plugin showed at our site in spanish. * Then, WPadverts had a ā€œbug updateā€, so we had to update it, yer or yes. After updating plugin, the translation dissapeared and the plugin became again into english. But, we had downloaded a backup of PO and MO files: adverts-es_ES.po and adverts-es_ES.mo * So, we uploded thru FTP those files in wp-content/languages/plugins/ with 0755 permissions, and because it didnĀ“t work, we uplodaded them too in wp-content/ plugins/wpadverts/languages * But, any of these worked, the plugin keept being in english. So we translated all sentece again, about 287 frases and SAVED. * But, nothing happened, the plugin still in english and there is no way of telling the system, that we want to use it again in spanish. * Can you help us please, the plugin admin at wpadverts told us to please ask you. * Thanks for your time and any help. * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/loco-translate/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/loco-translate/) Viewing 6 replies - 1 through 6 (of 6 total) * Plugin Author [Tim W](https://wordpress.org/support/users/timwhitlock/) * (@timwhitlock) * [10 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-translating-wpadverts/#post-6610189) * The location youā€™ve mentioned (`wp-content/languages/plugins/adverts-es_ES.mo` sounds correct. I cannot account for why this didnā€™t work. * Loco does not control the loading of MO files when you view your site, but looking at the wpadverts plugin just now, it seems this is the correct name and location. * If youā€™ve started moving files around manually, my guess is this is where things have gone wrong. * Thread Starter [ibiza69](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ibiza69/) * (@ibiza69) * [10 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-translating-wpadverts/#post-6610190) * Hi and thanks for the answer Tim. * About moving files, we have being administrators for 2 decades, so itĀ“s not a problem. We didnĀ“t move the files just because ā€¦ We checked that the translation at LOCO TRANSLATE, didnĀ“t apply after translating it, the second time, after updating the plugin wpadverts. So we went to check the files at those languages dirs at /wp-content if had the correct permissions. That shouldnĀ“t be a problem. * Anything else for helping on why didnĀ“t translate or recognize the files? If they are there, and there arenĀ“t any DB tables or anything that can call this files? * Thanks in advance for your help. * Plugin Author [Tim W](https://wordpress.org/support/users/timwhitlock/) * (@timwhitlock) * [10 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-translating-wpadverts/#post-6610405) * The plugin doesnā€™t have any DB tables of its own. It uses the WordPress transients API for caching. You can disable this by enabling WP_DEBUG mode, but I donā€™t think this will help your problem. * As Iā€™ve said, Loco Translate does not load MO files into WordPress. If the files are in the correct place with the correct names and with the correct permissions, then wpadverts will load them. If all these things are true and you donā€™t see translations, then Iā€™m out of suggestions. * [ruayrod](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ruayrod/) * (@ruayrod) * [9 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-translating-wpadverts/#post-6610547) * Hi ibiza69, please you can send me the wpadverts spanish translations files. ruben @ rubenydesi dot com Thank you. * Thread Starter [ibiza69](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ibiza69/) * (@ibiza69) * [9 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-translating-wpadverts/#post-6610548) * Hi!
