BEA – Loco Translate Enhancements

Description

Enhancements for Loco Translate.

How?

This plugin provides 3 targeted enhancements for Loco Translate:

  • Include mu-plugins folders in translation sources.
    This specifically targets folder-based mu-plugins, commonly loaded through bootstrap loaders such as mu-require or wp-mu-loader. The plugin extends source discovery so these mu-plugins can be translated with Loco Translate.
  • Allow language creation despite DISALLOW_FILE_MODS.
    This plugin keeps language creation available for the Loco Translate context on environments where file modifications are restricted.
  • Avoid stale Loco Translate plugin cache data.
    This plugin clears Loco plugin cache data to reduce outdated plugin entries during automated deployment workflows.

Tested with Loco Translate 2.8.4.
