 * Howdy,
 * for now it is not possible for the community (polyglots) to translate the strings
   in your plugin. Would you like to work on this?

    Tt’s working now.
 * Thanks for your feedback!

 * That’s great news!
 * I’ve started german translations and up to now we are at 50% for ‘Readme’ and
   50% for the plugin itself.

 * Thank _you_!
 * By the way, German is at 100% now and it is not necessary anymore to ship the
   plugin with your own po/mo-files. WordPress will take translations from translate.
   wordpress.org as soon as they are available (=more than 95% complete)
    😉

 * Hello. Thanks!
    I didn’t know that. It’s cool!
 * I translated to portuguese too including the readme. I think the introducing 
   page would be translated too but its still in english. Is it common?

 * That’s true for the moment but probably not the final status; the plugin directory
   got a redesign some days ago. There is still work in progress. I guess (I hope)
   we see our translated descriptions in a few days.
 * The default plugin page is English, that’s correct and the URL is
    [https://wordpress.org/plugins/file-renaming-on-upload/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/file-renaming-on-upload/)
 * My Browser shows a hint that your Plugin is available in German – linking to
   
   [https://de.wordpress.org/plugins/file-renaming-on-upload/](https://de.wordpress.org/plugins/file-renaming-on-upload/)(
   which also shows english texts and not german)
 * So you maybe can see a hint that pt-BR is available – linking to
    [https://br.wordpress.org/plugins/file-renaming-on-upload/](https://br.wordpress.org/plugins/file-renaming-on-upload/)
 * (May depend on how your browser language is set and how the plugin directory 
   detects your language/location …)

 * I see.
 * But that’s weird. I’ve made the translation of another plugin these days and 
   the translated description worked without problems.
 * Take a look:
    [https://br.wordpress.org/plugins/wish-list-for-woocommerce/](https://br.wordpress.org/plugins/wish-list-for-woocommerce/)
 * But i think it was before the redesign, so like you said i hope we see our translation
   soon too 🙂
 * Another question, do you work for WordPress?

 * Good news: there’s a ticket for the issue with translation of readme not showing
   up on some plugins

 * You might like this hint I just got from a german developer:
 * He said, they fixed it by “not creating a tag in SVN. So the stable tag does 
   not point to an existing tag and the translations are displayed”.

 * Thank you!!
 * But how users will update without a new tag?

 * I have no idea about tagging and branching in Subversion.
    Maybe we wait and 
   see what Dominik [@ocean90](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ocean90/) will
   do with the ticket.
