    Thank you a lot for your advice about string variable placeholders (s%). I checked their number in each pair Elgg1-Elgg2 after the translation porting and they seem to be the same. (poor test?) You were also right that the two most edited... view reply

    Thank you. I did so, exactly as you suggested. Using an external filediff editor to update the Elgg2 files. Work in progress... Thank you again for your kind support! view reply

    Yes, you are right: translations in Elgg are now good, Elgg2 translations are bad. My will is to improve also the Elgg2 translations, but starting from the situation as it is today it would be a really long and boring task. My wish is to find... view reply

    Hello Juho, I need again your advice. I guess I did a decent job translating Elgg in Italian, unfortunately yesterday I installed Elgg2 on my web server and I discovered that the Italian translation is a mess. Investigating on Transifex I... view reply

      Thank you a lot for your advice about string variable placeholders (s%). I checked their number in each pair Elgg1-Elgg2 after the translation porting and they seem to be the same. (poor test?)

      You were also right that the two most edited resource files are "engine" and "install", changes in other files are minimal.

      Now that all the files have been fixed, I can't wait to install a new Elgg2 release to see the result of all of this.

      I can't say for sure. It's a possible cause for errors but it might not necessarily be happening after all. Maybe there were no changes between Elgg 1 and 2 in language strings containing placeholders or at least the number of placeholders hasn't changed in these.

      Before anyone else says anything further: Let's keep this discussion about the technical process of how to contribute to translations. If anyone wants to talk about anything else, please open a separate discussion thread.

      Thank you.
