"Reply" label, double language

[agm65]

As you can see in the image sometimes "Reply" label is present in the language of the original post and in your own profile language

Hi @agm65, could you add a bit more context around that? On which P2 did you encounter it? It's Italian, I assume?

[agm65]

Hi @obenland, yes it's italian. The post was

If you want to create a post I can make comments and see if the same behaviour happens

I wonder if it's just due to either an incomplete set of translations, or two textdomains, where one has translations and the other does not. It's also surprising to me that translations are offered there in the first place, outside a language subdomain.

Do you happen to have more information on that @ocean90?

[ocean90]

I'm guessing that it's the custom user language which is set to Italian. Since o2 uses admin-ajax.php for fetching new data we're in admin context so the user language is used for translations.

o2 should probably be changed to use custom REST API endpoints instead.

@agm65 It looks like the required effort to fix this is not trivial. Do you think you could live with it for a while?

[agm65]

Yes of course.
if it helps in the investigation, it seemed sometimes that the label changed from English into Italian, just as a change resulting from an ajax fetch
