FYI: update_status and user_status official release warning
by Derek Wright 27 Jan '08

27 Jan '08

Greetings, Drupal translator community. I'm about to create official releases for 2 of my contribs, and I thought I'd give interested parties a chance to update their translations since there have been some string changes: 1) [Important] update_status 5.x-2.1 (http://drupal.org/project/ update_status) This is the highly popular D5 contrib module that tells you when your site is missing updated releases from drupal.org. Already in core for D6, and mostly the same strings, so if you've been working on your D6 core translation, you can probably re-use the vast majority of strings for this (or, working on this translation for 5.x-2.1 will be a healthy start for your core translations). 2) [Low prio] user_status 5.x-1.2 (http://drupal.org/project/ user_status) This is a small module that gives admins a way to send notification emails when users are approved, blocked or removed. Again, this functionality is now in core, but the strings are probably more different. This is a handy module if your site requires admin approval for accounts, but doesn't seem to be particularly popular or widely used. Both are in a complete code/string freeze, and have updated .pot files in their po subdirectories. If anyone wants to update a translation for either one, please open a new task about it in the respective issue queue, so I know to hold off on tagging the release until I see you commit or post the new .po files. http://drupal.org/node/add/project-issue/update_status/task http://drupal.org/node/add/project-issue/user_status/task I'm aiming to release both by Tuesday or Wednesday at the latest, so please at least let me know sooner than that if you're interested but need more time. Thanks, -Derek (dww)

Drupal 6 packaging works
by Gábor Hojtsy 25 Jan '08

25 Jan '08

Hey, Although we forgot to send a note here, Drupal 6 translation packaging works for a few days now, so feel free to tag your translations for Drupal 6, and please follow the naming guide (ie. use the same name as in drupal-pot but with .po extensions not .pot). The latest version of localization server also includes a flat export format, which exports files as you need to commit them to Drupal.org CVS. So get those translations flowing! Gabor

Problems with translations (beginner)
by Dalia Kumpiluvelil 24 Jan '08

24 Jan '08

Hello all, I am trying to translate phrases from English into German, but I have some problems with particular strings. There are two major problems: 1. Strings are already translated into German but not displayed on the website in spite of correct language settings or 2. I cannot find them at all in Poedit. Furthermore I have a question regarding the strings attached with "@"; can you just overwrite them or should variables like @buddy stay out of other reasons? And what should I do with variables with "%" and "!"? Also, It would be helpful to know where a string is being used. The "reference node/add/page" doesn't help too much tp find out where the translation appears (especially, if there are two locations of a string), and there are lots of double entries like "buddy of/Buddy of" etc. Any hints and tipps are highly appreciated! best regards, Dalia Already translated in Poedit, but not shown on the site: ----------------------------------------------------- -Invite your friends and colleagues. -Points -Enter the URL to use for this view in the form of 'dir/dir'. Do not begin or end the URL with a /. Example: 'view/tracker'. This is required if providing a page view.

Note that any arguments listed here will be required, even if they are listed as optional below. You do not need to list arguments at the end of the path -Description -Subscribers -Subscribe -Recent posts -user points Not found in Poedit: ------------------- -You currently do not have any pending Freund requests from other users. -You do not have any pending Freund requests that you have made. -To organize your Freunde into groups, visit the edit < <http://iik-forum.de/buddylist/6/buddies/groups/edit> http://iik-forum.de/buddylist/6/buddies/groups/edit> groups page -You don't have any groups defined. -No groups found -Groups are a way to keep your Freunde organized.

Re: [translations] translations Digest, Vol 27, Issue 12
by Amed Çeko Jiyan 20 Jan '08

Hi again, - As Frederik says, we use "kmr" for Kurmanji and "ckb" for Sorani. We use these codes in GNOME and some other projects. - you are right, "ku" is not a country code. We can not ku_KU in any projects. SO we use ku_TR for some projects. Why projects need country code? Do countries support projects? No. It would be great to use only language codes for all projects. As you see from Kurdish Google, iso639 2 makes problems for us. It would be better to use "kmr" and "ckb" That is good Drupal will use iso639 3.

language code problem (for kurdish)
by Amed Çeko Jiyan 20 Jan '08

20 Jan '08

Hi all, I would translate Drupal into Kurdish (Kurmancî). I got cvs account and i created a project named Kurdish Kurmancî. I would use ku_KU as language code for Kurmancî, but i got that message "- We normally use iso639 2 letter language codes for Drupal, ie for Kurdish it is ku" all of otehr projects -like Mozilla Firefox, Google- would we use ku as language code. That is because they don't know any thing about Kurdish language(s). Kurdish is a languages family as Scandinavian. After i start to translate Drupal into Kurdish Kurmancî, some other friends started to translate into Kurdish Soranî. We are translating Drupal into two languages but we have one language code (ku). will one of us stop to translating Drupal because that problem? No, i don't think so. I have allready created ku, ku_KU, so_KU in CVS directory. I would Drupal will let us to use ku_KU and so_Ku as languages codes. *Maybe you would see that big mistake : http://www.google.com/intl/ku/ That is Kurdish page of Google. When you open that page, you will some some thing in latin letters (Kurmancî) and some other things in arabic letters (Soranî). I hope Drupal will not fall in same mistake. Best regards, Amed Çeko Jiyan

localization server files v.s. translation templates
by Erik Stielstra 13 Jan '08

13 Jan '08

Using Gábor's excelent localization server we have completed the Dutch translation of Drupal 6. The filenames of the exported translations do not match the translation templates. For example: Exported from localization server: aggregator-admin-inc.nl.po and aggregator-module.nl.po In translation templates: modules-aggregator.pot Can someone confirm that drupal-6 translations must only be uploaded to cvs matching (the file names and source strings of) the translation templates. And therefore we need to transfer the translations to the template files structure. Regards, Erik Stielstra

D6 core translations are not yet ready to be released
by Derek Wright 13 Jan '08

13 Jan '08

D6 radically changes the way core translations are done, including how things are named, and where they're laid out. The packaging scripts on d.o have to be modified to take this into account, and Gabor and myself have already started discussing the required changes [1]. Until that's done (and we'll definitely let you know when it is), please do *NOT* attempt to tag an official release of your core translations for D6. It's not going to work anyway[2], and will just create more work for us and more hassle for you. Besides, RC2 is going to break a handful of strings, so you're going to have to re-do your existing translations a little bit, anyway... Thanks, -Derek (dww) [1] http://drupal.org/node/207401 [2] http://drupal.org/node/208454 p.s. cross posting from the devel list.

reason for translations not showing up / contributing
by Tomislav Grabic 09 Jan '08

09 Jan '08

Hello, I have a Drupal installation with English and German translations. For some reason, some email texts, which are translated and parts on the website (I'm using a wide range of modules) don't show up when changing the language settings to German. Is this a known bug or does anyone know what could be a reason for such behavior? Also, our translator started adding translations to the de.po exported from our installation. I've looked around on the Drupal website, but couldn't find info how to filter/export newly translated strings for individual modules out of our general de.po file to be able to upload it into the cvs. I'd be thankful for any pointers. regards, Tomi
