This issue is to track progress on setting up for translations into LANGUAGE.

Tasks:

  1. [DONE] Add a new issue component for translations into this new language, by editing the Project page. The component should be called "HU translation".
  2. [DONE] Make a new source/hu directory. Copy all of the source (English) files, including the images subdirectory, into the new directory. Keep the file names and IDs the same as they were in English.
  3. [DONE] Add a new section to the _attributions.txt_ file for the translation team management for this language. Template:
    ==== Translation into LANGUAGE_NAME
    
    The LANGUAGE_NAME translation of this guide was coordinated by:
    
    * https://www.drupal.org/u/person1[Person One]
    
    * https://www.drupal.org/u/person2[Person Two] of http://example.com[Company]
    
  4. [DONE] Make a separate issue for the screenshots. See Guidelines document for issue template.
    #2798661: [HU] Hungarian screenshots
  5. [DONE] Grant issue maintainer and VCS commit permissions to the manager or managers of the language team for the new language, by editing the _Maintainers_ page for the project.
  6. [DONE] Make issues for translating each topic into the target language. There is a spreadsheet file scripts/bookmarks.fods that will aid in doing this.
  7. [DONE] Add hu to the build scripts in scripts/languages.txt, and verify that it builds without errors.
  8. Optional but recommended steps:
    • [DONE] Make a translation glossary for this language. File scripts/TermsToTranslate.fods is a good starting point. This should be located in a place that the language team normally uses for communication, such as on localize.drupal.org.
    • [DONE] Make a shared spreadsheet (for example, using Google Sheets) to track translation progress. File scripts/bare_topic_names.csv is a good starting point; you can add columns for the issue URLs, and status of each issue.
  9. Start translating!

Great! Looks like we are mostly set up, aside from the screenshots (which I'm about to start working on). Once a few topics have actually been translated, we can also do item 7 "Add hu to the build scripts in scripts/languages.txt, and verify that it builds without errors."

This commit takes care of the one remaining task here: Add HU to the build scripts. The build is fine at the moment. Tomorrow I have on my agenda to get this up on the dev site so that HU translators can look at the text/screenshots as they make translations. I'll post a note here.

Meanwhile, I think all the tasks here are done so marking this fixed!

The Hungarian User Guide is up on the development site:
https://userguide_new-drupal.dev.devdrupal.org/d8guide/hu/index.html

Of course, at the moment it is mostly in English, but with Hungarian cover and screenshots.

Anyway, you can instruct your translators to use that site, with its editor and preview capabilities, for translating. On the "Edit source" pages, you can see both the English and Hungarian source, as well as a preview of what the Hungarian will look like as you edit (if you click the Preview button, which looks like a green checkmark).

Example: From that Hungarian landing page, click on the "Editing a content item" topic, which will take you to:
https://userguide_new-drupal.dev.devdrupal.org/d8guide/hu/content-edit.html
with its English text and Hungarian screenshots.

From there, in the sidebar, click "Edit source file content-edit.txt", which will take you to:
https://userguide_new-drupal.dev.devdrupal.org/edit/d8guide/hu/content-e...

Enjoy!

Thanks Jennifer for publishing even this initial draft, it's a great motivator for all translators I believe. Also good to have for my presentation in which I give a status report of D8UG2HU project to our wider community on the September event of Budapest Drupal User Group.
