    Hello!
    For some reason my bp-language folder is missing. Even tho i could and did create it manually, but for some reason translation i do after, won’t work. I’m not sure if the problem comes from the missing folder in the first place, but it should be

    I don’t know if this helps anything, but when i try to translate with codestyling and localization and i try to create a language file(with the newly installed buddypress, so no modifycations) it says
    “You don’t have the permission to create-‘/home/rohamjel/domains/rohamjelvenyek.com/public_html/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-languages/buddypress-hu_HU.po’ -file.”

    When i make the folder manually it does not show the “<-permission” message, i can translate normally, but translation doesnt show to happen on the website.

    bp-languages folder doesn’t exist in BP 2.x

    If your WP use hungarian language, when you install BP, the BuddyPress translation comes automatically from translate-wordpress.org into wp-content/languages/plugins/, which contains also by default the askimet translation.

    Also, php gettext use the compiled mo format to show a translation. The po file is only used to translate.

    Much more about translation in this topic.

    Could you please explain me what exactly i should do to get translation work?
    I downloaded hu_HU po and mo files from wp translate website(i know its not fully complete, but yet those which are are not being translated), i saw you wrote to put them into wp-content/languages/plugins -done that. What further steps do i have to make?

    Assuming its WP 4.1.1 Multisite and BP 2.1.1

    Go to wp-content/plugins/buddypress
    Find and use the buddypress.pot file to create (for example, by Poedit
    buddypress-hu_HU.po
    buddypress-hu_HU.mo
    [name the files exactly as above if hu_HU is your language]

    1. Create /wp-content/languages/plugins
    2. Place these two files there
    buddypress-hu_HU.po
    buddypress-hu_HU.mo

    Refresh, F5 and see your site again.
