[bug] Plugin translations are saved to site.php file

[piotrpog]

Today i tried to overwrite some freeform translation of freeform plugin through control panel.
This caused all freeform translations appearing in my translations/pl/site.php file, instead translations/pl/freeform.php file.
Then i reverted changes to file using git, and saved translations of some other plugin.
This caused both freeform and this other plugin translations to be appended to site.php file.

@piotrpog thanks for following, could you please confirm your Enupal Translate version? (can't see it in the list)

@andrelopez
Its 2.0.0 - I changed plugin menu name to custom name and it seems it changed here too :)

Hi @piotrpog on your Craft CMS dashboard please go to Enupal Translate -> Settings -> Plugins and enable Create Plugin's translation folder and try again.

However, this will create the translations in the vendors/plugin/translations folder and will probably be overridden in the next update of the plugin. (This feature was thinking on plugin developers, so they can add easily translations of their plugins)

Also, the current behavior if the Create Plugin's translation folder setting is disabled should create the plugin-handle.php file in the Craft translations folder instead of adding the translations in the site.php file. I'll mark this as a bug, thanks for reporting
