A translation consists of a multitude of localized strings. containing the term “pluginPlugin A plugin is a piece of software containing a group of functions that can be added to a WordPress website. They can extend functionality or add new features to your WordPress websites. WordPress plugins are written in the PHP programming language and integrate seamlessly with WordPress.

If you are not a validator, you don’t have the rights to import (only export, I believe). In this case, either ask the validator to import the updated .po file or ask them (or here) if it’s OK for you to get validator status.

Hope it makes sense, let me know if this workaround worked for you and if you have any questions!
