 * My woocommerce doesn’t seem to take notice of my translation file in wp-content/
   languages/woocommerce.
 * Maybe I’m approaching this on the wrong manner, but I have no idea how to resolve
   this.
    In fact I’m not really translating, but I just want to have some terms
   changed, store-wide. (‘Cart’ should be ‘Quote request’ everywhere). So I thought;“
   My site is english (en_US). So if I create an en_US.po file, and change all the
   terms there, Woocommerce will pick it up.” So I picked up the .pot file from 
   wp-content/plugins/woocommerce/i18n/languages, renamed it to en_US.po and placed
   it in wp-content/languages/woocommerce. Then I opened it with Poedit and started
   changing. After I was done I saved it, an en_US.mo was created and I checked 
   it. But no changes visible.
 * The only thing that I can think of is that the source base path in the PO file
   is wrong. This is set to ../../plugins/woocommerce
    (from wp-content/languages/
   woocommerce to the woocommerce plugin) but to be perfectly honest, I have no 
   idea.
