Hi, Johan. (@johan_walter).
Thanks for getting in touch! We are aware of the translations issue you’re experiencing with WooCommerce Product Tabs, which occurred after updating to WordPress 6.7, and appears to persist in WordPress 6.7.1.
For info, translations are broken in WordPress core itself right now, and this affects numerous plugins other than our own. This is due to what’s mentioned at https://make.ww.wp.xz.cn/core/2024/11/19/wordpress-6-7-1-release-schedule/ :
Translations not being applied properly (#62337)
You are correct – Translations worked prior to WordPress 6.7. Our suggestions in the meantime are to:
- Roll back to WordPress 6.6.2 and wait. The easiest way to do this is to restore the backup/version of your website prior to updating to WordPress 6.7. Otherwise, I suggest that you get in touch with your website’s web hosting provider, who can assist you with this best.
- Manually copy translations.
If you’re familiar with the steps, or have a developer who can perform them for you, our developers have provided the following example:
Let’s take WPO for example and assume the site is using Spanish as language.
- Navigate to
wp-content/plugins/woocommerce-product-options/languages/
- Copy the the 2 files that end with the suffix
es_ES . They have different extensions – .mo and .po
- Navigate to
wp-content/languages/plugins – create the folder if it doesn’t exist.
- Paste the files.
Once done, translations will start working again, but you may see notices/warnings. To disable this from being displayed, see: https://developer.woocommerce.com/2024/11/11/developer-advisory-translation-loading-changes-in-wordpress-6-7/
I hope this makes sense and helps. Please let me know how it goes, and if you have any questions.
Best regards,
Edge
Hi @barn2pluginsupport
I haven’t updated yet our prod website, I am following and testing on stagging website until I found update stable
I already use folder wp-content/languages/plugins for all translations
Do you mean that having all files in wp-content/languages/plugins prevent any translation;issues?
Hi, Johan (@johan_walter).
Thanks for your reply. Yes, manually copying a plugin’s .mo and .po translation files to /wp-content/languages/plugins should allow its translations to work.
You will also need to disable the notices/warnings as mentioned.

Hi, Johan (@johan_walter).
Thank you for your patience.
The translations issue you reported experiencing is resolved in WordPress 6.7.1 and WooCommerce Product Tabs 2.1.8, which we released on Tuesday (26 November).
In case you haven’t done so yet, please could you update both WordPress and the plugin to these versions on your website, and confirm whether doing so resolves the issue.
After updating the plugin, please also remember to clear/delete/empty all/any caching that might be active;
- On your website (i.e. via a caching plugin),
- Its web server (i.e. via a server-based caching service such as Cloudflare),
- And your browser (you can also review the issue via an incognito/private browser window that’s not cached – or use a different browser as an alternative; i.e. if you usually use Chrome to browse your site, then use Edge or Opera).
Please let me know whether this resolves the issue, and if you have any questions.
Many thanks!
