If I did not understand, I had the same problem and solved it by correcting some apathetic errors in the Italian translation


K2_CATEGORY_ADDED_IN_THE_LIST="La categoria \\"_QQ_"CATEGORY_NAME_HERE"_QQ_\\" è già nella lista."

Max, I really appreciate your feedback :)

Sorry for replying to this old thread but there are still problems with Italan translations. It's not working because of some text errore like this:

K2_CATEGORY_ADDED_IN_THE_LIST="La categoria \\"_QQ_"CATEGORY_NAME_HERE"_QQ\\" è già nella lista."

I don't know how it should be, just fixed my website removing all the "\\" in the ini file. If you can give me the correct format i will correct it in the transifex.
Thank you

EDIT: also, in the K2 download area, there are both "italian" and "italian (Italy)". Only the second one works because it has the corret tag it-IT, the first one with only "it" just don't work.

Okay, this problem is back for me. After updating to the newest Joomla version 3.9 the core hack doesn't work anymore because the Language.php file works different now. I'm talking about hte core hack from Krikor:

$strings = @parse_ini_file($fileName, true, INI_SCANNER_RAW);

Does anyone know how to fix this issue? I have installed the K2 pack, and the Dutch language pack in Joomla but it doesn't change the language in the K2 component. The previous hack from Krikor worked very well but unfortunately that does not work anymore.

I don't know if you understand but the language files i have installed from the official source. For some strange reason the K2 component does not gets translated. So the core hack which Krikor provided earlier in this topic fixed that issue. It's not the translation files its fault, i don't know why it happens. Can you just provide an hack to make this work again?

Yes this issue still occurs. I don't know why it is but that hack solved my problem. I'm asking if you or someone else has another hack to make it work again?
