Xibo CMS: customizing .mo translation file

Get Help
1

Hello,

I’ m having some issues regarding installing new translations to my Xibo CMS. When I customize my .mo file and upload it to the locale folder, the new changes aren’t visible. My locale setting within the CMS is set to the filename without the trailing .mo, so that should be correct, also the detect language option is set to off.

I know I can upload my new translations to Launchpad but I rather have my translations applied directly instead of waiting for a new Xibo version.

I also saw some other threads about this topic but they didn’t resolve my problem and those threads were about 3 years old.

I’m using Xibo for Docker on Linux and Xibo CMS version 1.8.11.

Hopefully someone can help me out.
Thanks in advance!

If you’re not uploading them in to Launchpad then nobody else benefits from them, which is a shame. It also makes it less worthwhile for us to help you out as there’s no contribution to the project as a result.

If you’re using Docker, then the locale folder is inside the container. You’d need to get your MO file inside the container - you can’t have it outside and expect it to be picked up. How are you getting that inside please?
