Translations Missing After i18n Changes

After Cursor reorganized your internationalization (i18n) files, translations are no longer working. Pages display key names instead of translated text, or missing locale files cause errors.

i18n configuration or translation file paths were broken during refactoring.

Error Messages You Might See

Translation key not found Locale file not found i18n not initialized JSON parse error in translation file
Translation key not foundLocale file not foundi18n not initializedJSON parse error in translation file

Common Causes

  1. Translation file paths changed, not pointing to actual files
  2. Locale not initialized or set correctly
  3. Translation keys changed, but not all places updated
  4. Language JSON file is malformed
  5. i18n library configuration broken after refactor

How to Fix It

Verify translation paths in config. Check locale JSON syntax: {"key": "value"}. Initialize i18n before app renders. Use consistent key names across files. Log detected locale and loaded files for debugging.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I add a new language?

Create locale file (en.json, es.json). Add to i18n config. Test by changing language in app.

How do I handle missing translations?

Set fallback language (usually English). Show key name if translation missing. Log warnings.
