I have add_filter( 'auto_update_translation', '__return_false' ); in my functions file but bbpress language files are updated anyway. What can I do to stop it? Thanks for help!

I found this topic…

My language files are overwritten by update

…but I don’t agree with @johnjamesjacoby – with that filter BuddyPress is no longer overwriting my language files, bbpress is doing it.

are you using a custom translation file for your site to say change/replace text instead of just translating it??

[HansRuedi]

Yes, and I have my file in the plugins language directory but don’t like to see one in /wp-content/languages/plugins

I can’t tell if you need to put your custom language files in a different area or this is a bug in bbPress or not. I will try to get some other help from a dev to see whats up.
