Re: [otrs] OTRS localisation and language not working completely

Thanx Michiel. I took the latest from your pages and started editing it for the parts that needs to be still translated. Seems to work lika a charm. ~pete On Wed, Feb 13, 2013 at 6:52 PM, Michiel Beijen wrote:

Hi Pete,

You should not 'download the language pack', all 30+ translations are inlcuded in the Kernel/Language directory of your OTRS system. Not all languages are equally complete though. Some are well-maintained, some have not been maintained for a little while, some for a little longer.

you can see the translation status here: http://lists.otrs.org/pipermail/i18n/2013-January/000729.html

Note that a large part of the translation tags are 'sysconfig settings'. For instance, in Dutch, the translation is complete for the Customer, Agents, and Admins, only the majority of the Sysconfig settings are not translated in Dutch. This means, if you use OTRS in Dutch localization, you'll only find English words in SysConfig, as the OTRS Administrator. Dutch is marked as 70% complete, so apparently at least 30% of all translation tags are sysconfig tags.

Finnish is marked as 44% complete, so it's pretty safe to assume lots of words are not translated in the Finnish language. If you want to work on the translation files, please always work on the last version from source code control (http://source.otrs.org/viewvc.cgi/otrs/Kernel/Language/fi.pm) - put it on your own system so you can test it - and send us back the file so we will integrate it in the next OTRS release.

On our web site we have a PDF that contains information for how to update and contribute translations in OTRS: http://www.otrs.com/en/open-source/contribute/ -- Mike

Hi, sorry, for some reason the whole mail seemed not to come to list. Below is the whole mail:

I'm a new to this list so Hello everyone.

I've got a problem using Finnish language pack on otrs 3.2.1. I've downloaded it from

http://fossies.org/unix/misc/otrs-3.2.1.tar.gz:a/otrs-3.2.1/Kernel/Language/... .

The problem is that not everything is translated on the pages but some of the texts are. I did a quick check from fi.pm where the translations are and noticed that even if translation is found from that file, it's not translated on the page.

Could anyone help? Thanx.
