Hi, we’re having a problem after updating OJS from version 3.4.0-8 to 3.5.0-1.
We have a multi-journal website in both Italian and English.
After the update, everything works, but the Italian translations in the submissions administration section are all wrong.
the translation keys are missing.
Why?
