    Hi,

    what happens exactly, do you see any errors?

    I’ve reviewed the procedure outlined there and it works fine for me with latest poedit on a win10 PC.

    Let us know,

    Thanks

    I wont to translate GD to Italian language. I also use Custom fields and wont to translate both- core and custom..
    – i downloaded Italian core translation po file

    First, you have to merge db-language.php with /wp-content/plugins/geodirectory/geodirectory-languages/geodirectory-en_US.po as explained at https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/translating-custom-fields/

    Then you update /wp-content/languages/geodirectory-it_IT.po as explained in https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/updating-your-language-files/

    You are first adding the custom field to the Italian PO file and then you are asking to compare with the English PO file that has no custom fields, in other words you are asking the Italian file to match the English file which has no custom fields, so it deletes them.
