Translations

I want to translate a module (diff) that doesn't have spanish.

Looking at the translations folder I find .pot file that contains all the English strings & I can see that the other translations translate the blank msgstr into their language. It looks very easy to do, but I'm thinking that once I've done it I'd like to give it back to the module developers so they can use it.

If I proceed like that will my translation compile with standards & be useful?

I can't find any documentation that gives me further ideas about how to proceed.

I recently imported a very large translation file that had many empty translation strings. This caused my total translations (empty or not) from 3000 to 6000. This would not be a big deal, but I am using launchpad to translate the open source development of this project, and do not want to make people translate these useless strings.

I have a good backup of each of the translations before I did the import.

How can I clear all the translations and all the 'source' strings?

Hi All,

I wanted to announce http://groups.drupal.org/hindi - a group to discuss Hindi Translation of Drupal

I am aware that we already have Hindi translation project at http://drupal.org/project/hi - but this is not yet completed. And proper effort is needed from Community to complete the Hindi translation.

I am going to put effort into this. Please come and involve yourself.

Comments / suggestions are welcomed.

Hi everyone,

I'm currently working on a site in 4 languages. I have added custom language switcher links in my template that links to:
- the translation if the node is translated
- the original node with the language prefix if the node is not translated (and then I show a warning message above the content)

To make it clearer I'll add an example:
An English page (node/1) has a Dutch translation (node/2) and NO translation in French and German.
The language switcher links to:
- EN (en/node/1)
- NL (nl/node/2)
- FR (fr/node/1)
- DE (de/node/1)

The problem that occurs is the following: when I switch to FR or DE (so fr/node/1 or de/node/1) the interface gets translated (because of the language prefix in the URL), but the Primary links remain the English ones.
When switching to NL (for which a translation of this page exists) everything works correctly: the interface AND the primary links switch.

Does anyone have an idea on how to make the Primary Links switch together with the interface language? I have tried several options, but I can't seem to figure it out...

I have a 3 language site. I can switch secondary links fine to the new langauge but the primary links (they show up in a horizontal block under the header) don't switch. Is there any way to get these to switch when I switch languages???? They aren't even enabled in the menus admin!! If I move the menus to a different block location (sidebar, header, etc) they switch as expected but I can't get it to work in the default location of the primary links.

Please Help

thanks
