@leighgregg perhaps you should look into the language folder located in the buddyboss parent theme. You will need to translate that file as well. NOTE: Plugins may also have a language file.
Plugins, yes that is fine, I knew this. I didn’t know buddyboss theme/child theme has a separate language file too. Why is this needed? Yes, I have sorted it out now, but, it is confusing to need an additional language file for only a few of the Buddypress translations…
@leighgregg since we edit these files we did not want to be dependant on BuddyPress language translation in case it changed and we didn’t notice. So we moved them to the BuddyBoss translation file. We have many other unique words to translate as well hence the file. Sorry for the confusion.
