    Hello,

    I am updating a website locally before i deploy my changes on live site. My environment is an xampp with php 5.6. I updated simple membership plugin to the latest version and the problem is that Greek translations mo file is not working. I have done my tests with twenty seventeen theme and all plugins except simple membership disabled and the problem is still there. My site language is Greek.

    Hi.
    Do you have the plugin already translated by yourself and created the .mo file?
    If you had done that in the previous version, the update possible has deleted the .mo file. Confirm that the .mo exists.

    Also, the plugin is not translated in Greek yet via the
    https://translate.ww.wp.xz.cn/projects/wp-plugins/simple-membership/dev/el/default.
    If you want to help translating it, just add your strings there.

    But i can see the simple-membership-el_GR.mo file with the new prefix ‘simple-membership’. Before the update the file that previous dev has build had the ‘swpm’ in the name. I also opened the simple-membership-el_GR.mo that i see with poedit and all Greek translations are in there.

    Hi @sokostas, as @lenasterg mentioned above the Greek translation is not completed. There are only a few strings translated.

    If you would like to help with the translation, you can follow what @lenasterg said above.

    Kind regards

    At your readme file and at plugin page i can see that you have Greek language to available languages section. So if it is not available why you have it there?

    I solved the problem by myself. The lang code to work at you mo file is ‘el’ and not ‘el_GR’. When i changed it, Greek translations mo file loaded correctly and Greek language appeared.

    I will try to find some time to contribute to Greek translations for the rest of strings.

    Thank you for not helping btw 🙂

    Hi Kostas, sorry for not detecting that issue you mention.

    I have submitted a message to the developers to investigate further your findings.

    Thank you also for helping out with the Greek translation. That is very kind of you.

    Kind regards

    I think that you haven’t done anything wrong. I found this on wp-config from previous developer.

    define(‘WPLANG’, ‘el’);

    Hi, that is no longer needed if your are running WordPress 4.9.4. You can read more about it from the following URL Language packs: No WPLANG anymore.

    If you are adding the above WPLANG constant to your wp-config.php file and you are running WordPress 4.9.4 then there is something else happening in your site. You might need to investigate this further.

    This is my humble suggestion.

    Kind regards
