Question

i'm doing a wordpress plugin.

my_plugin.php

/*

* Author URI:  http://abel-olguin.com
* Text Domain: my_plugin
* Domain Path: /languages
*/

*.po and *.mo files are in lenguages and i call traslate whit

__("text in po", "my_plugin")

my_plugin-en_US.po, my_plugin-es_ES.po...

but strings are not translated, always show everything in English and my browser is in spanish. what it's wrong?

Answer 1

You need to load your plugin’s translations files using the function load_plugin_textdomain().

function my_plugin_load_plugin_textdomain() {
    load_plugin_textdomain( 'my-plugin', FALSE, basename( dirname( __FILE__ ) ) . '/languages/' );
}
add_action( 'plugins_loaded', 'my_plugin_load_plugin_textdomain' );
