Hello,
I have developed a custom payment gateway which references text from event_espresso text domain, for example: $payment->set_gateway_response( __( ‘Payment Failed’, ‘event_espresso’ ) );
I’ve also prepared translation file as wp-content/plugins/netopia-mobilpay/languages/event_espresso-ro_RO.mo.
Despite this, the translation does not get picked up and either there is no translation or, if one is available in wp-content/uploads/espresso/languages/event_espresso-ro_RO.mo, that one is picked up.
Is there any way of having my plugin translation file be used? If not, how I see it I need to rename the text domain from event_espresso to my custom plugin name (it is not enough if I translate the texts in the official EE translation site as some custom plugin strings appear only for my plugin and are not part of EE).
Thank you.

Hi there,
Is there any way of having my plugin translation file be used?
You can’t have 2 plugins using the same text_domain and different .MO files.
Text domains are essentially pointers to MO files, when you try to use the same text domain with 2 different files, you basically overwrite the filename of one with the other.
I think you’ll need to use your own text domain for your strings and likely your own call to load_textdomain to load the correct mo file.
Is your code publicly accessible somewhere where I can take a look?

Hi, Tony,
I understand. I can send you the code; just point me to the right email address / contact form.
Thanks!

Hi, Tony,
I’ve just sent you the files. Is there anything else that I need to do besides replacing the text domain? Functional wise, the payment gateway has been tested ok.
Thank you.

Hello again,
I’ve managed to activate my custom text domain by setting below code in the payment gateway class file. Is the code ok from your point of view? Do I need to do anything else?
Thanks.
Class EE_Netopia_Mobilpay extends EE_Addon {
/**
* class constructor
*/
public function __construct()
{
add_action( 'plugins_loaded', array( __CLASS__, 'netopia_mobilpay_load_plugin_textdomain'));
}
public static function netopia_mobilpay_load_plugin_textdomain()
{
load_plugin_textdomain( 'netopia-mobilpay', FALSE, basename( dirname( __FILE__ ) ) . '/languages/' );
}

The above looks fine to me and I don’t think you’ll need anything else.
You’ll now be loading your own translations so they should work throughout your plugin.
I tried to take a look over your code however you’ll need to make it public as its limited to the support[at]eventespresso.com user.
