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.

I didn't understand the question well, but if what you want is to write the strings of your module, I do it in the .po of my module. 


If you want it, it is about writing strings of native modules, because you write (inherit) the view and then define how you want that new string that you inserted in the view to look like.
