Hi everyone, this is just to let you know that I've updated the Website editing and translation guide now, to include the info that was missing. If you see something that should be explained better, or find that something is missing in the guide, please send a message to the list (or ask for Wiki editing permissions) ;) Thanks! Kind regards, Maren

Hi everyone, you guys are great :) - Thanks! Victor, I'm afraid you translated the page on staging.inkscape.org... :( We'll have to transfer your translations to the live website. Duarte, do you think you could help with this? I couldn't find your account at inkscape.org, Victor, to give you translators' permissions - what is your username? And you're right, translating is a lot of work, that's why we are so happy to have you to support Duarte ;) - even if the languages aren't exactly the same, it's a great thing if some of the work can be shared. (Anybody here wants to translate the German developer pages, maybe? ;) ) As the web site editor isn't always intuitive in its usage, I'd like to give some hints for inserting links (I think this isn't yet very well described in the document on our Wiki - I'll update that soon with some pictures as well): For links, whereever possible, please everyone use the Link plugins. In the editor, there is a dropdown on the top left. The thing is that internal links (from one page at inkscape.org to another one) will be adapted automatically, if, for example, a page is moved or renamed. So if you link to the 'About' page, for example, and someone moves that page to another menu section, your link will not need to be updated. It's a little more work now, but it will save us work later. They also do not need to be adapted for the language, this is done automatically. So to insert an internal link, do the following: - Write the word(s) you want to use as text for the link. - Mark them. - Use the dropdown for plugins, select 'Link' - Fill in all info (use the dropdown for internal links) - Save To edit a 'plugin link', just doubleclick on it. What will not work with plugin links: - Copying a plugin link to use it more than once (it lives in the database, and only can exist once, and also only in the text block where it was created) - Editing the text of a plugin link in the editor window directly. As I said, not intuitive... To get contents from the English pages to your own language's page, use the dropdown at the top ('language') and select 'Copy all plugins from English'. This will make duplicates of all plugins (a different entry in the database), they can be edited by double-clicking on them. Long read, sorry! Thanks for all your hard work, Kind regards, Maren

Website: News article and updates
by Maren Hachmann 19 Jun '15

Dear translators, after the conclusion of the Hackfest, we now have a news article that explains what was done, and expresses a big Thank you! to everybody who was involved. You can find it for translation here: https://inkscape.org/news/2015/06/17/inkscape-hackfest-2015/ (it's long - but easier to translate than some of the other articles :) , at least it was for me) You might also notice a few other changes on the website: - the Hackfest donation page was taken out of the menu (I kept it in the system for next time, your translations are not lost) - all links to the Hackfest donation page were removed from the 'Support Us' pages, in all languages ;) - a few social media icons have been added (and the 'Follow us on' might need translation - for most languages I was able to do the trick, but please take a look if I got it right, and compare with the corresponding English page) here: http://inkscape.org/ (bottom left) and here: https://inkscape.org/community/ (top) - The Books page (https://inkscape.org/learn/books/) has received an update, and now also contains links to the man page and the keyboard reference. It might be that its title will still change. It's not a lot of work, but it will improve access to important documentation - could you update your versions? - The FAQ now contains an item about the keyboard reference (https://inkscape.org/en/learn/faq/#Where_to_find_a_list_of_all_keyboard_sho…) which still needs to be inserted in all languages other than English. If you'd like to know even more details about the technical questions our devs talked about at the Hackfest, you might also like to read the report by Tav in our Wiki: http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Hackfest2015_Report Thank you all for your great work on making Inkscape accessible for everyone! Kind regards, Maren

Fwd: Website: small update to 'Getting Started'
by Maren Hachmann 23 May '15

23 May '15

Hi website translators, we're trying to make the info on the pages for guiding new contributors more complete. As a first step, there's a small new paragraph added. If you have translated that page, it will need an update soon ;) I've decided to start adding screenshots of the changes to the 'website update' mails, to make it easy for you to spot what's new, until the diff system for the website is working, see attachment. I had to make the picture small because of the 40kb message limit in this list. I hope it's still useful - if not, please complain! Regards, Maren

Hi website translators, there's a new news article about the ongoing hackfest in Toronto on our website :) Can you translate the info to feed our community's hungry minds? They have donated generously, and now they will probably want to know urgently what's happening ;) If you're technically interested, you can also take a look at the corresponding set of Wiki pages to get a better impression of what's happening: http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Hackfest2015_Topics (not for translation) Regards, Maren

I also noticed that the French team is currently making great progress on the French FAQ. Merci beaucoup à vous ;) - the FAQ is a very important source of information for new users. Regards, Maren

Translations for different branches
by Eduard Braun 15 Apr '15

15 Apr '15

Hi all, since [1] doesn't seem to cover this question: What's the most convenient way to translate the Inkscape interface for different branches (e.g. 0.91.x and 0.92/trunk)? * The help page suggests to fetch the latest .po/.pot files from trunk and translate those. * As far as I can see this will however most likely conflict with the latest stable branch (0.91 currently) Do I really need to keep both branches up-to-date separately or are there other options? Best Regards, Eduard [1] http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Interface_translation
