 * Thank you for your continued support. I appreciate this wonderful version update.
 * Currently, I am testing Gwolle Guestbook 5.0.1 on my test site. For safety reasons,
   I haven’t yet performed full functionality testing in the production environment.
 * By the way, when I check “Upload Image” in the “Other” tab of the Gwolle Guestbook
   add-on settings, the decorative toolbar above the text box on the new post screen
   disappears.
 * Even after unchecking “Upload Image,” it doesn’t return to its original display
   state. How can I restore it to its original state?
 * Is this feature simply not available yet?
 * Or is there a problem with the database or settings on my test site?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fregarding-a-problem-when-checking-upload-image%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi Senri,
 * That is strange, it should not happen.
   Could you doublecheck at Guestbook > Settings
   > Form-tab if Visual editor is enabled?Maybe something else went wrong when updating.

 * Hello Marcel,
 * I’m sorry, it was completely my mistake.
   The settings you suggested solved the
   problem!Therefore, you can mark this thread as resolved.Thank you so much for
   your help despite your busy schedule.
 * P.S. I’ve successfully completed the Japanese localization work for Gwolle Guestbook
   5.0.1.
 * Best Regards,

 * Subsequent testing has shown that image uploads to the guestbook are now completing
   successfully.
 * We don’t plan to support image uploads in the production environment, so it’s
   fine for now, but the upload message becomes invisible against a black background,
   so CSS changes seem necessary.
 * In any case, the problem is resolved. Thank you very much for your help.

 * For your reference, on my site, which has a black background, I have implemented
   the following CSS in conjunction with the release of Gwolle Guestbook 5.0.1.
 *     ```wp-block-code
       /*Gwolle Guestbook button design change*/.gwolle-gb-write-button input {	font-size: 9pt !important;}.gwolle-gb-write-button {.button {	display : inline-block;	border-radius : 5%; 	/* rounded corners */	font-size : 9pt; 	/* font size */	text-align : center; 	/* text position */	cursor : pointer; 	/* cursor */	padding : 12px 12px; 	/* padding */	background : #000066; 	/* background color */	color : #ffffff; 	/* text color */	line-height : 1em; 	/* line height */	transition : .3s; 	/* smooth transition */	box-shadow : 0px 0px 8px #666666; 	/* Shadow setting */	border : 2px solid #000066; 		/* Border specification */}.button:hover {	box-shadow : none; 	/* Remove shadow when cursor is hovered */	color : #000066; 	/* Background color */	background : #ffffff; 	/* Text color */	}}/* Upload button */.button.gwolle-gb-addon-upload-button {	 background : #000066;	 border-color : #666666;	 color : #A0A0A0;	 font-size : 10pt;}/* Submit button */.button.gwolle_gb_submit {	font-size : 10pt;}/* Preview button */.button.gwolle_gb_preview {	 background : #000066;	 border-color : #666666;	 color : #A0A0A0;	 font-size : 10pt;}

 * Hi Senri,
 * Thank you for the translation work.
   Is there anything you need here? I often 
   look at the strings like “author wrote on `date` at `time`“. I can imagine it
   doesn’t work in every language. But I never dared to really touch it, because
   it has grown quite convoluted over the years.
 * Glad you can make the CSS work for you.

 * Hello Marcel,
 * Thank you for your reply. I truly appreciate your ongoing support.
 * Please rest assured that the Japanese localization process is proceeding very
   smoothly.
   Regarding the translation work itself, simply translating strings within
   GlotPress does not always yield the most appropriate results.Therefore, although
   it takes more time, I’m carrying out the translation by actually running the 
   plugin and carefully cross-referencing the text displayed on the screen with 
   the strings in GlotPress.
 * Japanese nuances and phrasing can be particularly challenging; however, the availability
   of Google’s AI translation as an aid has been a great help, allowing me to achieve
   higher translation accuracy than before.
   Here is one example: while the word “
   author” might typically be translated simply as “筆者 (writer)” or “作成者 (creator),”
   I have standardized the term to “投稿者 (post author)” (_tōkōsha_) to better 
   align with the nature of this plugin, which focuses on posts.
 * *Translation Example
   en: Show author email in Metabox.ja: 投稿者のメールをメタ
   ボックスに表示する
 * Additionally, regarding the CSS for Gwolle Guestbook 5.0.2 designed for themes
   with dark backgrounds: changing the `border-radius: 5%;` definition to `border-
   radius: 5px;` results in a cleaner display.
   I’m sharing the modified CSS below
   for your reference:
 *     ```wp-block-code
       /*Gwolle Guestbook button design change*/.gwolle-gb-write-button input {	font-size: 9pt !important;}.gwolle-gb-write-button {.button {	display : inline-block;	border-radius : 5px; 	/* rounded corners */	font-size : 9pt; 	/* font size */	text-align : center; 	/* text position */	cursor : pointer; 	/* cursor */	padding : 12px 12px; 	/* padding */	background : #000066; 	/* background color */	color : #ffffff; 	/* text color */	line-height : 1em; 	/* line height */	transition : .3s; 	/* smooth transition */	box-shadow : 0px 0px 8px #666666; 	/* Shadow setting */	border : 2px solid #000066; 		/* Border specification */}.button:hover {	box-shadow : none; 	/* Remove shadow when cursor is hovered */	color : #000066; 	/* Background color */	background : #ffffff; 	/* Text color */	}}/* Upload button */.button.gwolle-gb-addon-upload-button {	 background : #000066;	 border-color : #666666;	 color : #A0A0A0;	 font-size : 10pt;}/* Submit button */.button.gwolle_gb_submit {	font-size : 10pt;}/* Preview button */.button.gwolle_gb_preview {	 background : #000066;	 border-color : #666666;	 color : #A0A0A0;	 font-size : 10pt;}

 * P.S. About translation…
 * The following sentences l’lI be not translation in Japanese because the word 
   order might be rearranged, potentially resulting in an unnatural meaning:
 * %1$s wrote on %2$s at %3$s

 * Aha, interesting. Can you tell me more?
 * Currently translations are quite fixed in their order. It’s really ‘author from
   Japan wrote on day at time’. When I always understood that many languages can
   have a really different order.
 * You could now for example make it into:
   %2$s at %3$s, %1$s wrote
 * Would it make more sense if it were just two headings, one for the ‘name from
   origin’, and a separate one for ‘date at time’?

 *     ```wp-block-code
       Assuming the settings %1$s = Author, %2$s = Year, and %3$s = Time:In English, it is:%1$s wrote on %2$s at %3$sIn Japanese, the word order becomes:"%1$s は %3$s の %3$s に投稿した"The meanings of the individual words are as follows:'に' (ni): at'の' (no): on'投稿した' (toukou shita): wroteSimplified, this becomes:"%1$s は %3$s %3$s に投稿"However, since translating "wrote on" simply as "is" is inappropriate, the conclusion is that the parameters for "%1$s wrote on %2$s at %3$s" should not be translated.Next, let us examine the following parameters:%2$s at %3$s, %1$s wroteThis expression deviates even further from standard Japanese phrasing, so it likewise cannot be translated directly.Incidentally, translation becomes relatively easy with parameters like the following:Post Date: %2$s at %3$s by %1$sJapanese translation: "投稿日時: 2026年6月30日 @ 12:30 by Name"English translation: "Post Date: June 30, 2026 at 12:30 by Name"

 * Hi Senri, thank you for the response.
 * Maybe the one sentence is simply too complicated 🙂
   I cahnged it again in git
   and svn. Now there is only:Name from CityDate at TimeBoth on their own line. 
   I think is most languages this is more straightforward when translating.Does 
   it help?

 * Hello Marcel,
   Yes, I think so.That way, it’s simple and shouldn’t cause any issues
   for translation.
