Prevent language files be overwritten with updates

[Jos Blokdijk]

Hi,

i did rather some work in editing the language-files but after an update all my work was lost (and yes… i learned from this :-)).

BUT… how can i prevent updates of Events calendar Pro overwrite my modified language files?

Thanks!

Hi Jos,

Sorry for the losing those updates. I hope you have a backup.

Unfortunately, we do not have a method to store those files outside the plugin.

So they will be lost on each update.

The best thing to do is make sure you have a backup and upload it after a plugin update.

I have just created a ticket in our system to look into changing that so there is a location you could put the language files that is safe from updates.

Let me know if you have any follow up questions.

Thanks

Brian,

i do have a backup, no worries 🙂

“I have just created a ticket in our system to look into changing that so there is a location you could put the language files that is safe from updates.”

That would be great, i’m developing 5 websites at this moment with which i will have this issue, so if i need to upload the files each time after an update, that won’t make me happy.

I tried WPML but that causes issues with the Woocommerce Ticket plugin.

Thanks!

Sounds good.

We are releasing 3.10 in a couple weeks hopefully and this will not be apart of that release as the code is frozen for testing.

Hopefully we can get it into a future release this summer though.

Since this is resolved I am going to close this ticket, but if you have any questions related to this or something new, please create a new ticket for us to help you out 🙂
