But it can still create problems. It can fill your debug log, show publicly if debugging is configured incorrectly, and make real errors harder to spot.

Updated for WordPress 7.0: Learn what "translation loading triggered too early" means, why the _load_textdomain_just_in_time warning appears, and how to fix or safely suppress it.
