Translations in Plugins

[nilshoerrmann]

If I add translations in a plugin as explained in the docs, how should I handle terms that I know the panel already uses (like search or open and such)?

• Should I still add those just to be sure in case Kirby removes them from the core later on?
• And if I add common strings like search or open, how will that effect the panel: which translation will take precedence, the core’s or the plugin ones?

And if I add common strings like search or open , how will that effect the panel:

The Panel gets its translations directly from the translations folder. So what you do in your plugin doesn’t affect the Panel.

Yes, I think you should.
