I currently have the following 4 files in my config/locales of my root application:
-en.yml
-de.yml
-simple_form.en.yml
-simple_form.de.yml
In my application.rb which resides in a spec/dummy folder for testing the application gem I have the following line of code which seems to be retrieving the translations as expected:
# The default locale is :en and all translations from config/locales/*.rb,yml are auto loaded.
config.i18n.load_path += Dir[Rails.root.join('my', 'locales', '*.{rb,yml}').to_s]
config.i18n.default_locale = :de
I now wish to introduce to structure to the file structure of my locales folder but when I add the additional folders and change the load path in the application.rb I am getting translation not found errors. Here is my attempt:
Attempt at including structure in config/locales of my root application:

-en.yml
-de.yml
-models
-en.yml
-de.yml
-forms
-simple_form.en.yml
-simple_form.de.yml

config.i18n.load_path += Dir[Rails.root.join('config', 'locales', '**', '*.{rb,yml}')]

The following options all worked for me
After restarting the webserver of course...
I had a similar issue, I solved it by adding this line to my application.rb config:
