[Escalated to WPML Developers team] Split: Woocommerce Germanized pro 3.2.16 fixes part of the issue, but not the whole issue

Good day,

Thank you for the feedback and the escalation again.

I'm afraid it already says

public function reload_locale() {
unload_textdomain( 'woocommerce-germanized-pro', true );

WC_germanized_pro()->load_plugin_textdomain();
}

in the file you mentioned. The issue persists.

Steps to reproduce the ongoing issue:

1. Make sure there is no "woocommerce-germanized-pro-de_DE.mo" at /wp-content/languages/wpml/ (and if there is, delete it).
2. Go to WPML String Translation and select the domain "woocommerce-germanized-pro".
3. Edit the German (!) translation of any string in the selected domain, for example for "TOS Generator".
4. This will create the file "woocommerce-germanized-pro-de_DE.mo" at /wp-content/languages/wpml/
5. Now the fix is falling apart and Germanized Pro is in English again, only the manually translated string from step 3 is in German.

I have reproduced this many times in my test environment and will test it in a sandbox at some point later this week as well, if I find the time.

Good day,

Thanks for your ongoing help and sorry for the late reply.

I can see you already re-created the scenario that leads to the problem in the sandbox.

The two strings
"TOS Generator - Easily generate your custom terms & conditions through our API."
&
"Cancellation Policy Generator - Easily generate your custom cancellation policy through our API."
are symptoms of the problem, yes.

However, it's not just these two strings, all strings from the Germanized Pro domain are in English, it affects the whole plugin.

I just created a dummy order in the sandbox and if you open this dummy order and scroll down a bit, it says "Invoices" and there's a button "Create invoice". This is from Germanized Pro as well, which should be in German (and is again, if deleting the "woocommerce-germanized-pro-de_DE.mo" at /wp-content/languages/wpml/). You can try clicking on this button and then an invoice will be created, most probably in English as well.

This, again, is also just a symptom, the bug affects all Germanized Pro strings.

Once the file "woocommerce-germanized-pro-de_DE.mo" at /wp-content/languages/wpml/ exists, it's like it's overriding the plugin's own translation file and only the one at /wpml/ is considered.

Hope this helps.

P.S.:
"I appreciate your persistence in showing us the Strings Translation problems with the Germanized for WooCommerce Pro plugin." 😀
Thank you for still putting up with me 😉

Hello,

I found it in /woocommerce-germanized-pro/woocommerce-germanized-pro.php

That does indeed do the trick!

Thank you very much.

So it was a Germanized issue after all (well, two issues actually) and Germanized tried to shift the blame.

Many thanks for your continued support and finding the solution. Please make sure that Germanized recognizes the issue and provides a permanent fix.
