In reply to: [Rename Media Files: Improve Your SEO] Plugin is not translation readyFor German it does not work, I regret.

The intro text («Have you ever had any …») has been translated for several days but does not show up.
Translations I added today are missing too (okay, THAT is a cache issue, I guess).Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Intranet & Private Site - All-In-One Intranet] Adapt for translationDan, I thank you for taking the time and writing down your thoughts – a very good summary.
I will report to the polyglots’ slack channels. I consider it being quite useful for us to improve documentation and maybe tools.
The point is: there IS documentation for all (or at least: the most) of the things you mention. But I admit it is very hard to find all corners where the info is hidden 🙂
Okay, now let’s try to clarify things for you.
You know strings have to be approved by someone with the capabilities to do so. That’s correct.
These people are the PTE (project translation editors). E.g. for German you can become PTE for your own plugin if you are a native speaker, know our guidelines und our glossary. Other locales may vary.

https://translate.wordpress.org/locale/de/default/glossary
https://de.wordpress.org/mitwirken/benutzerrollen-fuer-die-deutschsprachige-uebersetzung/In addition, there are the General Translation Editors (GTE). They can approve strings – and they can grant other users the role of an PTE.
Few of the PTE are allowed to approve strings for ALL plugins and themes in de_DE. So we end up for German with approximately a dozen of people who can approve strings.
Currently we have approx 65.000 of them waiting (de_DE + de_DE_formal)
https://translate.wordpress.org/statsUnfortunately, we don’t get a notification when new strings arrive for approval.
That’s where Slack enters the stage.Ideal approach to getting strings approved is if contributors are aware of slack and come to the polyglots channels (national or international) to say hello and paste a link to their translations. This way a PTE or GTE gets aware of new waiting strings.
I admit, only few people do so (speaking for German). And I agree with you that this process should be MUCH easier. And I know: people are working on better solutions and these will come.
That’s why approval of strings can take a very long time.
The reason why your plugin is not listed as “translated to German” is simple: GlotPress (the software behind translate.wordpress.org) automatically generates a language pack for distribution – but to start that process, more than 95% of strings in a plugin’s stable trunk have to be translated and approved. Readme files do not count in.
So if you want to speed up the process of approval, you should contact the respective locale team and ask them to look after waiting strings in your plugin.

In reply to: [Intranet & Private Site - All-In-One Intranet] Adapt for translationWhat do you mean with _complicated getting final approval_?
Do you have any suggestions how to improve that?Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Rename Media Files: Improve Your SEO] Plugin is not translation readyThere’s another resource for you; gathered by @casiepa
maybe this post by @zodiac1978 can give you some more information

Did you copy the characters (áá.jpg) from here?
yes
I cannot confirm that.
After upload/renaming the file is called “aa.jpg” – no matter if “Accents – Converts all filename accent characters to ASCII characters” is active or not.
(Firefox Mac)OK, another test; using the new option Remove non-ASCII-Characters 🙂
– Uploading my file with Firefox 53.0 (Mac) results in
— filename changing to “xaeiouaeioueissaouyy.jpg”
— slug changing to “xaeiouaeioueissaouyy”– Uploading my file with Chrome 58.0.3029.81 (Mac) results in
— filename changing to “xaeiouaeioueissaouyy.jpg”
— slug changing to “xaeiouaeioueissaouyy”Firefox/Windows: same result. xaeiouaeioueissaeoeueyy
That’s exactly what I expected to happen 😉
Great!So let’s go on 🙂 … regarding the results, this new option does not belong to “remove characters” but to “convert characters” (which both are not yet translatable strings) isn’t it?
I don’t want to annoy you, just wanna improve your plugin; I am really interested in using it live!
what…!?
these strange spaces between letter are not what I intended to appear in this post – they are NOT part of the original file or folder names 🙂- This reply was modified 9 years, 4 months ago by Christian Sabo. Reason: typo

In reply to: [Rename Media Files: Improve Your SEO] Plugin is not translation readyI have no idea about tagging and branching in Subversion.
Maybe we wait and see what Dominik @ocean90 will do with the ticket.Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Rename Media Files: Improve Your SEO] Plugin is not translation readyYou 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”.
Thanks to Robert! @nullbyte
