I’ve created a little mockup screen I wanted to share with the glotpress people.

I’m just interested if something like this would technically be possible. I’ve drafted something similar in my trac ticket at http://glotpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/41
This would help to bring some order in the huge amount of different strings on translate.wordpress.com and would help to get the context of a string. Well in a perfect world every string on translate.wordpress.com would come with a screenshot where the string to be translated would be highlighted in any way.

I second the concept of somehow providing context to the strings, because context is very important for translation, especiall for short and one-word strings. Not sure the suggested method is the best way to do it though.

This belongs on http://blog.glotpress.org, not here.

I know, but I can’t post on the GlotPress blog, can I? Haven’t found a clue on how one can post there. Nevertheless we need more “context” for translating. That’s still the major problem, which hasn’t been dealt with over the years.

Yes you can. If you are logged in to WordPress.com, you should be able to post.

I’ve checked and I can’t. Are you sure it works with .com login data? Do you maybe need a .org login?
This is what I get when I try to login:

You can’t post at glotpress blog, as far as I know. In order to post anything there, you have to post is as a comment to a blog post. Of course, comments are forever in moderation queue

Comments moderated. If you are logged in to WordPress.com, you should be able to post on the homepage.

You don’t need to access wp-admin, it’s a P2

You mean I can comment on the glotpress blog. I can’t start a post there. When I open blog.glotpress.org (when logged into WordPress.com) I don’t see an inputarea above.
All I can do is “Reply” to a comment. Doing that it even asks for a name, Email and website although I’m logged in.
I’ve made a screenshot. This is how it looks like when I visit the glotpress blog when logged in to WordPress.com

You’re not logged in. There’s no toolbar at the top or “Follow” links next to the posts. And, my test account sees it just fine. http://cl.ly/0d3K390j0x2g1F220120.

You’re right. I don’t have an admin bar when opening the glotpress blog. What am I doing wrong?
I simply enter “http://blog.glotpress.org” in the adress bar in Firefox 11.0 and press enter. You can see the result in my screenshot above. No admin bar or follow button.
btw. If I try “https://blog.glotpress.org” Firefox shows a “ssl_error_bad_cert_domain” error.

And? When I log in with this link I’m immediately redirected to the dashboard of my mainblog.
Like I said, I’m logged into WordPress.com. I see my admin bar. But when I enter “blog.glotpress.org” and press enter I don’t see an admin bar nor an inputarea on blog.glotpress.org.

Try clearing your cookies or something. Remote login can be buggy, it currently works in all browsers for pretty much everyone. Log in at http://blog.glotpress.org/wp-login.php, then return to http://blog.glotpress.org, and everything should work.
Avoid https://blog.glotpress.org. SSL + WordPress.com domain mapping is, um, yeah.

Cache & cookies?
Martin (IQ) 5:26 pm on April 23, 2012 Permalink |
OK. I’ve closed firefox. Cleared cache and cookies. Restarted Firefox and used http://blog.glotpress.org/wp-login.php to login to WordPress.com. I’m redirected to the Dashboard of my main blog and I see an admin bar. Now I enter http://blog.glotpress.org/ and voilá – no admin bar or inputarea. Don’t know what to do.

At this point I would recommend you contact support: http://en.support.wordpress.com/.

It’s closed for anyone without an upgrade.

My bad. I hadn’t enabled javascript and cookies for “glotpress.org”. They were blocked by “NoScript” and “Cookie Monster” Addon. I feel such a fool. :shame:
Shall I still repost the first post on blog.glotpress.org?
