@Jean:

I reported this some post above (out of date marked as untranslated, dont know why).

BUT at all, we can look forward to 3.3: Mark marked (lol) this bugtracker entry as fixed, so only changed strings show up as "out of date" and now "out of date" make sense (on 3.3 and maybe also on the translation system here on IPS).

[Jean]

I am sorry. It's bad that we can't really know what was changed in the new version. James Kessler updated us about these news so far, so I can't guess what is going to replace it. May IPS can release a monthly report of all their changes they have done in the new version regarding to the languages packs. (The report included Changed / Removed / Added strings) and even they could make a feature that IPS can do it for all of their languages installed on the server at once.

92% completion in Hebrew but it's not the correct information.
Look at this page:
http://community.inv...age&language=11
System Tab notes 98% completion but doesn't have blank strings.
Gallery 0% completion (913 strings out of date)
How? Gallery has some new strings that I don't even know what they are?

92% is correct then, 92% is an average with System having the biggest effect on that percentage because it has the most strings. Seems the Gallery import went a bit iffy if it's saying they're out of date. I'll see why Gallery is playing up.

As for the 98% completion issue - there are several untranslated strings, we'll get that area sorted ASAP though.

Still waiting for fixes to the language app (untranslated and out of date still not work correctly)

AND: Where is the link to the language system (in the header)?

As we are testing 3.3 and regularly updating our forum, the skin customization that adds the bar you reference was removed (we had to revert our template) and will be added back in due course.

[Jean]

@ Alex, it hasn't been fixed yet. (out of date strings message display even if they're not out of date strings).

[bfarber]

If I'm not mistaken, he had to wait on 3.3 which made some changes to better identify which strings are out of date.

i don't know if this is the right place to say this things.
i just see the traslation interface, a month or two after the implementation. I'm late, i know.

I just want to say that with this page i will be impossible to do a right traslation. There is no coordination (is there?) and without knowing where a string will be applied there is no way to know which is the right traslation.

Do a pair of examples:

1) the word "post" can be traslated in 2-3 ways depending on who translate.
2) the word "post" in the string is the noun or the verb? How can i know?

So, it's impossible to use this method of traslation to translate a simple language (enghish) in a more complex one.

Other than this, i cannot know if the string will be put in a place with limited space. Knowing that i can use a shorter translation (less clear too).


Thank you.

Tomorrow we are in march and the translation area still dont work correctly (untranslated still not work etc).

I asked this a few times: Should we post the bugs to the tracker?

Why does my language pack have 93%? everything is "100%" completed.

We will check on these incredibly tiny issues. No need to panic

[Jean]

There is also another issue with the "language.xml.gz". When tried to upload the hebrew pack, the process has timed out.

That is unrelated to the translation feature on our site here, and we have implemented many resource improvements for importing and recaching language packs to help with this in 3.3.

[Jean]

What is your way to upload the Lang XML file fast instead of stucking on timed out status?

*Most* customers don't hit a time out, but for those that do, I would recommend temporarily increasing or removing the restrictions so that the language pack can be imported, and then putting the restrictions back in place.

As I said, this has been improved greatly with IP.Board 3.3 which should resolve the issue some customers have faced moving forward.

This was fixed, the reason it happened was because the main progress bar looked at *all* language strings, and there were 800 strings that hadn't been translated into Hebrew - turns out this was due to IP.Tracker, sorted that and you now show at 100%.

[Jean]

Why can't I upload it as well? when I tried to upload this language pack, it has displayed an error saying "Page Timed Out" it takes a long time while loading this lang pack and sometimes its even not working and going to "Page cannot be found" because it's getting offline due to the long process. I also tried to upload on another USA / our of usa (europe) or even on some Israeli servers and it still came up with an error.


This will be great if you can cause the board remove all "out of date" strings automatically with adding new characters to the newest version if needed.

I have tried to upload this language.xml.gz to your Demo Board.

Thats the big problem with the language .xml files (and many more, e.g. you can not ex/import language packs for specific apps, because you can not select the language pack to import the .xml when importing). This is the reason why i only offer languagepacks as .php files since years...

[Jean]

Why not to make a feature that will upload 500-600 strings per cycle? this will decrease the time and can be very useful.
