I tried it again, and it worked! CASE CLOSED.

When I run WPT Custom Mo File, it returns this error: “Sorry, this file type is not permitted for security reasons.”

I have performed the PoEdit process you described and uploaded the files to the directories I stated earlier. The message was unchanged.

Neither process as described in https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/customizing/customizing-labels-messages-and-urls/ seems to work.

More suggestions? Is there a php (or other) file I could edit?

[Ivan William Pfeifer]

I (1) downloaded buddypress.pot; (2) made the changes to it using a text editor; (3) copied buddypress.pot to buddypress-en_US.po; (4) used poedit to create buddypress-en_US.mo; (5) copied all 3 files to /wp-content/languages/plugins/; (6) tested Register; (7) messages unchanged.

So I (1) copied all 3 files to /wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-languages/; (2) tested Register; (3) messages unchanged.

What did I do wrong?

Thank you.

Thank. It works fine with WP 5.1.1 and BP 4.2.0.
