Do you use the french WordPress install ?
Have you selected “french” as your site language ?
dashboard > settings > general
Yes, French is my site language now. It was in English, but then after having read what to do about Buddy Press being in French, I changed my site language to French. I also reinstalled after I changed my site language to see if it helped, but it didn’t.
Have you added a bp translation manually to another folder ? If yes, delete it.
If you use WP since a while and updated it recently, search a line containing define(‘WPLANG’, ‘xx_XX’)- xx_XX is a lang iso code, in wp-config.php. If you find one, delete it as it is no more used in WP 4.1
Control via FTP that bp translation is in wp-content/languages/plugins/buddypress-fr_FR.mo
If not there, ensure that /language/ and /plugins/ have their write access set to 755
The mo file should be 644.
Yes! Deleting WPLANG is what did it!
Merci beaucoup.
Je t’en prie 😉
