Dear friends.
I installed BBpress on my Russian site. Everything is ok. All words in admin panel and public are translated to Russian. I need change some words. I thought I can change what I need in bbpress.pot file, but there only English. I totally don’t understand where BBpress takes Russian words. I even tried download language file bbpress-ru_RU.po and changed there, but its didn’t work anyway. I totally confused here BBpress takes Russian words. Which file I should change? And where?

Hi,
bbPress translation is centralized here: https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/bbpress/stable/ru/default

If you want to propose a new translation so everybody in the world that uses it in Russian gets your update (when it gets approved), then you can do that using the above link.

If you only want to change it on your local installation, you can read the codex on https://codex.bbpress.org/getting-started/bbpress-in-your-language/

Didn’t work 🙁
I have /wp-content/languages/ So, I created /wp-content/languages/bbpress/
I dowloaded .PO from here https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/2.4.x/ru/default
Changed what I need. Saved as bbpress-ru_RU.po Compilated to .MO and put both (PO and MO) to /wp-content/languages/bbpress/ (bbpress-ru_RU.po and bbpress-ru_RU.mo)
I even clean cash. But nothing.
Help me please.

Hi,
I see you downloaded from the 2.4.x branch. You have a bbPress 2.4 installation ?

[Roman Matovsky]

I use last version. And I downloaded from here https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/bbpress/stable/ru/default
But problem is: files shouldn’t be here /wp-content/languages/bbpress/ , files should be here /wp-content/languages/plugins/
Change instruction please https://codex.bbpress.org/getting-started/bbpress-in-your-language/
