Translation error after updating the forum to version 4.9.1
-
I updated the forum to the latest version.
I see that some of the translations have been destroyed and are now displayed in English.
The system language is Hebrew.
What can be done? -
Can you give a specific example of a language string. A screenshot helps too. We can check the history on github to see if it got overwritten.
-
Also, it is important for me to note that the federation page has completely reverted to all its settings in English.
The rest of the forum is still in Hebrew.
Thank you! -

Hi @משה, for those federation setting labels in the sidebar, they are new strings and will require translation. The pages themselves should retain their original (translated) strings.
-
I can help with the translation.
Where is your translation interface? -
@משה we use Transifex. Thank you so much for volunteering!
-
-
@משה that might have been an accident
Hopefully you are able to recover the old translation?
-
@julian
I would love to hear about the process.
After I have translated a few sentences, what happens now?
Do I need to send it for approval? -
-
@משה it might've been an action I did when I pushed some translations up, but they were not done correctly. I think then, the easiest way to restore was to remove all the translations.
I wasn't sure how many were done, but it looks like the Arabic translation was done already. Oops
-
@משה no, the translations should be ready to go even without approval.
We have a bot that will pull translations in once a day, and they'll be on track for the next minor version.
-
I follow a lot of translations, you deleted them all
-
Hi @julian @baris
I translated, with God's help, all the new strings! and the old ones that were deleted.
Waiting for them to be approved and passed on.
Recommendation!
Quickly update the version, because the previous deletion affected thousands of users, The deletions were also made in the user interface and not just in the admin console. -
@משה if it's urgent you don't have to wait for a release. Get the json translation files and put them in
public/language/hethen rebuild nodebb, that should fix the translations for you. -

Or will I have to manually update again? -
@משה the translations will be included in 4.10.0, when it is released.
