How to Fix: "is translated here but not found in default locale" error in strings.xml with translatable="false"
Error in strings.xml with translatable=false, not found in default locale and lint translation error.
📋 Table of Contents
The error message "is translated here but not found in default locale" in strings.xml with translatable="false" is often caused by incorrect or missing translations in the values-pliles (e.g., values-pl es aw es/values-pl.xml) or values-ru, values-iw files. This can happen when you create a translation for a specific locale but forget to update the default locale file accordingly.
✅ Best Solutions to Fix It
Method 1: Update Translation Files
- Step 1: Check the translation files for each locale (e.g., values-pl es aw es/values-pl.xml, values-ru es aw es/values-ru.xml) and ensure that all translations are present.
Method 2: Update Default Locale File
- Step 1: Open the default locale file (values es aw es/values.xml) and check for any missing translations.
🎯 Final Words
To avoid this error in the future, make sure to update both the translation files and the default locale file whenever you create a new translation for a specific locale. Regularly review your translation files to ensure consistency across all locales.
