Custom folder structure of /Lang

Hi guys!

How can I access & translate message located in "app/lang/CUSTOM_FOLDER/en/validation? Tried Lang::get('CUSTOM_FOLDER.validation.CUSTOM_MESSAGE), and also tried to swap the structure a bit, bit Laravel is still unable to access it. As far as I understand, the "get" method of ootb Translator class is searching the "lang" folder for the translation package, matching the current locale set. Is there any other way to achieve this, or I need to rewrite this method?

Thanks and cheers, Alex

The problem is you have added CUSTOM_FOLDER before /en/. I would follow this structure:

# Default files, keep them here.
/lang/en/validation.php
/lang/en/passwords.php
/lang/en/pagination.php

# Example for custom file
/lang/en/site/header.php
