@Kuljeet1998 I don't know why but "Mylife" translation in the dashboard doesn't work when I login with my username; however, it works when I login with okuro's username as shown in the video below:

I believe its because the language when you login would have been set to arabic but the language when okuro's account was used must have been english at the start and then changed to arabic. This is an edge case which I discussed w @Okuro3499 and trying to come up w a solution.

The mylife items are sourced from the database, and in this implementation, you're passing the title directly to this function for translation. However, this approach may not work if there's an item that isn't hardcoded into this function. We need a more dynamic solution to handle such cases
