Hello,

I am trying to overwrite strings in a personal project. I know I could just change the strings in the Odoo source code but I don't want to do that. I want to achieve this through overwrites in custom modules.

So for example, there are strings in the base module I want to change. How would I go about achieving this? I have tried this folder structure...

base

    -> i18n

        -> is.po

I am using Cloudpepper and adding this custom repo as an addon but strings are not changing. Any clue how to make it work?

I have tried creating a new module with the same folder structure and installed that module with the overwritten string, which worked... but... I would rather overwrite each module instead of having to install a custom module with all the strings in a single .po file.

I know I could also import the .po but I don't want to do that either. I want this to be handled through a custom module to save work in the future.
