text_empty does not translate

Hi! If I click/tap on an empty category the default English message displays "There are no products to list in this category." which is the text string for the {{ text_empty }} text variable. The text_empty variable is properly translated in the other two languages installed, ../product/category.php respectively. Yet they do not display when the respective languages are selected, the message always defaults to the English text value. I tryed to add $_['text_empty'] =... to other translation php files, to no avail, no change, they won't display whatsoever. What is wrong, please?

I am unable to reproduce your error, see e.g. our OC 3 demo at https://www.mhccorp.com/demo/software where the text_empty message is displayed in every chosen language.

Without further details, nobody will be able to help you. What is your OC version? Any extensions installed? Web theme? Site URL?
