Function Reference/unload textdomain

Description

Unloads translations for a domain

Usage

<?php unload_textdomain$domain ); ?>

Parameters

$domain
(string) (required) Textdomain to be unloaded
Default: None

Return Values

(bool) 
Whether textdomain was unloaded

Notes

In case you need to prevent a text domain from unloading, the override_unload_textdomain filter is called before attempting to unload the text domain.

add_filter( 'override_unload_textdomain', 'myplugin_override_unload_textdomain' );
function myplugin_override_unload_textdomain( $override, $domain ) {
	if ( $domain === 'my-domain' ) {
		// Prevents WordPress from unloading this text domain
		$override = true;
	}
	return $override;
}

Immediately before unloading a text domain, the unload_textdomain action is called to notify WordPress that the text domain is being unloaded.

add_action( 'unload_textdomain', 'myplugin_unload_textdomain' );
function myplugin_unload_textdomain( $domain ) {
	// add code here to handle the unloading the text domain
}
