Prasanna SP
Hi there! I’ve been translating WordPress into my native language Kannada (http://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp/dev/kn/default). I’m planning to complete the translations ASAP. But, none of the translations are getting validated. I don’t want my efforts to be in vain. So, is it possible to make me a validator? I’m very excited to see WordPress in my language. My wordpress.org username is – prasannasp . BTW, I’m a wordpress plugin developer. So, I’m very familiar with WordPress and translations

Greetings!
I am back to L10N-RU team.
Please, add me as validator to all russian translate.wordpress.com / translate.wordpress.org projects-
Atrax
I already have access to any, except:
http://translate.wordpress.com/projects/wpcom
http://translate.wordpress.com/projects/polldaddy
http://translate.wordpress.com/projects/videopressAlso, please set up russian locale to:
http://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wordcamp-theme
http://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wordpress-for-windows-phone-
Jenia
Welcome back! I’ve re-added you as a Russian validator for WordPress.com, PollDaddy and VideoPress, and you still had access to Jetpack and Gravatar.

Zé
Validators for .org projects are added on the dashboard of http://ru.wordpress.org

Zé
I love you all dearly, but please keep the discussion of WordPress.COM issues on its proper place. Thank you!

You can localize wordpress projects with the help of this tool: https://poeditor.com/. It has Russian and many other languages, and it also features an automatic translation option.

Why the BuddyPress projects never keeps past translation files, at last previous relesead versions? I just found out that the available files in GlotPress are for 1.6, while a lot of people are using 1.5.x.(that’s the version availabel in plugin directory as well). I used to keep the translation in my site but now that I’m running the br.buddypress seemed right to lead people to download files in Glot instead. Am I missing something?!
-
Andrew Nacin
It looks like 1.2.x was branched but that 1.5.x was never branched. We can do this, if you’d like, but it might need to wait for http://glotpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/207, as any strings removed in 1.6 but present in 1.5 would need to be re-translated for 1.5 based on a simple PO/MO export and re-import.
-
Diana K. Cury
Thanks Nacin, I see that many strings was changed/added, but at least for versions said stable there should be versions, i.e. 1.6 and beyond?! Now that 1.6 are about to be released there is no need to worry about the past ones indeed.

Is it possible to translate the word “Arabic” without editing the file (wp-admin/includes/ms.php) ?
http://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/wp-admin/includes/ms.php#L423
-
Zé
Good call. Actually ALL of them should be translatable, IMO.
-
Rasheed Bydousi
So I prefer to edit the file instead of translating so many strings …
-
Andrew Nacin
Can you please not manually edit wp-admin/includes/ms.php for 3.4? Unless you really want to, but you haven’t since this was introduced way back in 3.0. I will resolve this in 3.5.
-
Rasheed Bydousi
ok
-
-
-
-
Andrew Nacin
No, it is not. Sorry. This will likely be a 3.5 project.

So i have the WordPress Dutch version and i’d like to change a button from Zoeken (Search) to Zoek (thats also search but shorter) could you tell me how i could do that because i can’t find the .po and .mo file
The site: http://tinyurl.com/c25q95r (look to the right side)-
Remkus de Vries
This really isn’t the proper place for this question. You should try the Dutch WordPress forum: http://nl.forums.wordpress.org
This site is meant for the various translation teams, not individual translation issue of themes not properly being translated

Rami Yushuvaev
Hi guys,
All of us here belong to the WordPress translating community and many know how frustrating the translating process is. WordPress has more than 3,300 strings (+500 for MultiSite), it’s just too much.I think that the translators community has to be more involved in the development process to reduce the strings ammount and improve it’s quality. WordPress trac already have a few interesting ideas like:
- Consolidate string with same meaning but different wording (http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/14039)
- Merge similar string (http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/18218)
- Replace/Remove html code entities (http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/7098#comment:10)
I would like to hear more ideas, based on your experience, how do you think we can improve the translating process and/or reduce the strings ammount? (you can add your trac tickets)
-
Stas Sușcov
What you are asking is fair, though you should also keep in mind, that updating older strings, will require new forces to review localizations too. While some teams represent actually one man contributions, this might be an issue.
-
Rami
Stas, when merging similar string, for example, we delete the old strings without creating new strings because both already have translation. If you check the trac ticket i created (#18218) you will find more that 50 of those strings, i need your help to find more similar strings.
-
Rami
when i say delete, i mean delete from glotpress.

Hi Rami,
I would be interested in joining the Hebrew translating team, if its possible and needed.
You can contact me through a@galgool.net.
Cheers,

+1 on this task, would be nice to put all these ticket ready fro 3.2.X release but not more than 3.3… more we wait more risk there is to have other inconsistencies
-
Rami
I prefer 3.2.2
-
Peter Westwood
These are tasks for the major release cycle not the maintenance release cycle so a 3.3 target is more appropriate.
However we should focus on incremental improvements rather than a large review an update of every single string as that just causes unecessary code churn.

Currently, WP_I18N strings do not seem to be properly replaced by the package build system in the following files:
/wp-includes/functions.php
/wp-includes/ms-load.php
/wp-includes/ms-settings.phpCould anyone please look into it?
-
tenpura
This problem is seen in several (all?) languages, for example:
http://ja.wordpress.org/builds/ja/trunk/wordpress-3.2-rc1-ja.zip
http://id.wordpress.org/wordpress-3.2-RC1-id_ID.zip
http://sv.wordpress.org/wordpress-3.2-RC1-sv_SE.zip/wp-includes/functions.php seems to be excluded by 50K limit fix (http://i18n.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/17026), because it is bigger than 50K.
For /wp-includes/ms-load.php and /wp-includes/ms-settings.php, a corresponding ms-xx.mo may not be loaded properly.
(Since I don’t know how the package system is deployed, these are my guess.) -
Nikolay Bachiyski
Strings in functions.php should be OK now.
I am looking into the other problem.
-
Nikolay Bachiyski
Not gettexted strings are now being replaced in ms-* files, too.
-
tenpura
Thank you so much, it works fine now!

Hi there!
I’d like to be a validator in bbPress project for pt_BR. User: Dianakc
By the way, bbPress will have a multilingual documentation?!

DjZoNe
Hi Zé, please remove from the validators everybody for the Hungarian language project except me (DjZoNe) and fgyw, thus the others does not show any kind of activity since years.
So, I don’t think it would be fair, to show their names in the Credits pages.-
Zé
Removed
-
DjZoNe
It took 24 hours to show up, on the Credits page, right?
-
Zé
Not sure how long, exactly, but the info is cached, yes.
-
DjZoNe
3 days passed, and they still show up, on the Credits page? What else can be done about this?
-
Mattias Tengblad
Same problem on sv_SE

Rasheed Bydousi
Same Problem in ar-AR
There are inactive validators since 4-5 years.
It is ridiculous and unfair to show in the same line names of people who contributed to wordpress several hours with names of others who are contributing and working hard and constantly since many years.
Please remove all validators from ar-AR except me. I will give you later the nickname of my Translation partner.
