 * Hi , I have a website which is in French but the plugin on the admin area is 
   still in English.
    I’ve check you have the language folder with the file .pot
   I’ve try to change for example and save but it still not change for me.
 * #: post-expirator.php:156
    msgid “Year” msgstr “Annee”
 * Sorry I’m very new to this and just been google of how to do the translation
   
   I’ve also try Poedit to save the file to .mo and .po and change file name to 
   post-expirator-fr_FR.po and still not work. Now I really don’t know what to do.
 * Please give me some guide.
 * Thank you.

 * I’ve found the solution ,
    So open the post-expiration.pot in Poedit and modified
   the translations and then export to .mo with the file name of post-expirator-
   fr_FR.mo

 * hello,
    I am having issues with the language too. I created the .mo files and
   the translations show correctly on the back office. But my issue is with the 
   footer on the posts. I enabled to show footer with this text: El post caduca 
   a las EXPIRATIONTIME el EXPIRATIONDATE
 * on the preview on the back office I see the date format correctly:
    EXPIRATIONDATE-
   > Domingo marzo 12, 2017
 * but on the frontend it shows like this:
    El post caduca a las 7:42pm el Friday
   May 19, 2017
 * See? The date is showing in english, not in spanish as it shows in the admin.
   Why=
