Language placeholders in RAXO Modules K2 after Joomla 3 update

[trendskater]

Hi @fevangelou

I am using the RAXO All-mode K2 module and RAXO Related K2 Items module and I’ve run into an issue after installing the Joomla update (your Joomla 3 / K2 fork).

The Problem: Since the update, the module backend is full of language placeholders (e.g., MOD_RAXO_RRLK_SOURCE_SELECTION, MOD_RAXO_RRLK_SPACER_ADVANCED_FIELDS ...) instead of the actual labels and descriptions. This happens for both the core module settings and the RAXO-Prime layout I am using.

Details:
The module worked fine before the K3 update.
I have already tried moving the language files to the /administrator/language/ folders manually, but they are still not being recognized by the system. It seems like the way the backend loads extension language files has changed or is broken in this fork.

Could you please check if there is a known issue with how third-party module language files are handled in this version? Any advice on where to place the files or how to fix this would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your work on this project!

Start with the basics. Which K2 version are you using and on which PHP version?

I am on Joomla 3.11.0 using php 8.5.3 (also tested with 8.2 with the same problem) and I use K2 v2.24
