Missing translation after update

We are maintaining only the English language. And with each update, we may add new strings in the en.json or some file in the en folder. We list this in the list of updated files.

If you have your site translated into some other language, you will need to add these missing translations.

The easiest way to do that will be to switch the site language back to English. After that, go into "Translations" and select your language and group you need to translate. In most cases, you need to translate only the "Single" group.

The missing translations will show as empty. So make sure you translate them.

After adding the missing translation, you can switch to your language.

-- Another option will be to use a tool like PoEditor, where you can update en.json in order to maintain full translation.
