Views, Tracker Page and localization [#73183]

When I enable views on my site, one thing immediately happens: the tracker page layout/content is changed for no apparent reason, even though it is not being overriden.

Changes include:

- the table length is shortened because the default <div id="tracker"> where the table is contained gets magically transformed into <div class='view view-tracker'>; plenty of other new id and class tags are added to the source code too, although those appear to have no apparent visual effect.
- the table headers are not translated into my Portuguese locale anymore, instead displaying as the default english "Type / Title / Author / Replies / Last Post".
- the title for the tracker page changes from "tópicos recentes" like it is set in the navigation menu to a Portuguese translation of the string "recent posts".

Should all this be occuring just because one enables the module or is it a bug?

Hmm. I'm surprised it's not translating, I'll have to doublecheck but I thought those strings were all in t() so they'd translate.

You can disable the Views' tracker page by going to admin/views and clicking 'disable'. That'll return you to the default tracker view. Or you can 'add' the view and customize it if you like.

Leaving this open until I can investigate why the tracker view strings aren't translating.

Hmm... I don't have any "Disable" link in my /admin/views; the only action listed is to add a view to override the default one. However, I took a long shot and visited the link /admin/views/disable/tracker and it seemed to work. Thanks.

Shouldn't these things be disabled by default? I mean, if I want any of my views changed, I'll add a new one to override the old one, right? I wasn't aware that just by enabling the module some of my views would end up automatically changed.

Hmm... I just installed Organic Groups, and I noted that the two additional pages views creates for og (group/mytracker and group/mytracker) can't be translated. The strings used for the pages appear in the locale settings, but providing translations for them does not have any effect whatsoever; they're always presented fully in english (well the titles and headers, anyways, since I have no groups/group posts created to fill in the tables).

If you could get them to work with locale, it would be great. Those two pages are really cool!

The pages I mentioned should be group/mytracker and group/myunread, of course. Small mistake there.

the fact that enable/disable links are not there is fixed by the following issue:

I *think* all of this is fixed, but I'm not 100% sure. If it's not, please re-open.

Problems with tracker table-titles not translating solved in Views 4.7.x 1.5 only partially:
- For "recent popular posts" it's still not translating: Needs a patch in the file views/modules/views_statistics.inc, where all the 'label' => xxx lines should have t() added to the texts.
- Because the views table-titles are cached, any edit to the locals take only effect after re-submitting the admin/modules page (i.e. refreshing the cache), which is really confusing to the user, and should be added to help-texts in bold letters (both views and locals probably).

The title page translation problem still exists on the released package for 4.7.x version.

I've attached a simple patch.
