Don’t hijack other topics please. Moved your question to it’s own topic.
What have you done ? it’s probably because you did it wrong, this happens while learning.
I changed this note “Registering for this site is easy. Just fill in the fields below, and we’ll get a new account set up for you in no time” to my custom note, and i changed “Blog detail” to “Profile detail”. Then i made 2 file : 1) – buddypress-en_US.mo . 2) buddypress-en_US.po and i uploaded both to /wp-content/languages/plugins/ .
Yeap, and is your WP setup for en_US ? See Settings > General > Site language
Ok, now we need more details about what is appearing on your register page.
– do you use a register plugin ?
– what is your theme name ?
– which tool have you used to generate the mo file ?
-I use Agreeable plugin.
-My theme is vantage premium.
-Brackets.
Howdy Dan,
I have found similar instructions and made updates to no avail. I would appreciate the missing pieces so as to fully customize all labels and messages BuddyPress serves throughout various steps of the online engagement process.
In kindness and cooperation,

Hi @rodne
Which parts of the process are you struggling with?
thanks @henrywright for the swift reply … i was struggling with where to place these files, not seeing updates and generally wondering what I had been doing wrong. Basically I had been replacing the messages of the .po files when generating the new .mo translations … instead one should simply add a preferred translation as the following article suggests (https://wpalchemists.com/2014/05/buddypress-translation-files/)
oh the woes of .po & .mo ‘s … hope this helps someone else though!
Glad to see you’ve managed to solve the problem yourself.
