Blockchain.info Development Bounties

German & French translators particularly needed.

I would like to claim that work, can I start?

[John (John K.)]

Ben, you probably need to start hiring PR/admins. 
There's also a backlog of pull requests at GitHub.

[John (John K.)]

The guy who did the Indonesian translation realized that it has some errors in it after he visited the site. I'll submit a pull request again after the fixes are in, thanks.

PS: The tag for 'Home' was translated wrongly, I see it now too. I should have reviewed the translations after he did his part.

Some bugs on Firefox:

1)
On 'Wallet home'
Click download
Pop-up window appears with contents of wallet.aes.json, but displayed in the window, not prompting for download.
Worse, right-click -> save-as -> wallet.aes.json does not work properly (won't import into multibit)
Workaround is to copy paste the contents into a new file and save as wallet.aes.json. Even this is dodgy, because if your text editor is set to do things like insert BOM or change encoding or modify the file in some invisible way, the decrypted version won't be correct.


2)
With no email set in my account,
On 'Wallet home' backup area
click email (to send my wallet.aes.json)
On chromium i get 'Please verify your email in Account Settings'
On firefox I get:

'Пожалуйста, проверьте вашу электронную почту в настройки учетной записи'

3)
According to the help, a copy of my wallet is stored in my cache and I can use this to import my wallet into Multibit should blockchain.info be down. The help doesn't explain where or how to find this file though.

My system is Linux Mint Nadia (most recent), Firefox version 18.0.1

Got some more minor issues:
4)
In Import/Export, 'Export encrypted' and 'Export unencrypted', the text area has 'cursor: not-allowed' set, but the whole point is that you can select the text there and copy it.
It doesn't prevent you using it - but it's confusing, and more importantly prevents the user from doing things like: Click text area, Ctrl-A, Ctrl-C.

5) Import/Export - Paper wallet tab has no href set, so it doesn't appear to be clickable - I get the 'I' cursor like for selecting text instead of the clicky hand cursor for links.

6) Import/Export - Export Encrypted: 'Download backup' button doesn't appear to do anything when clicked.

Above 3 for both Chromium 24.0.1312.56 and FF 18.0.1 as in previous post.

I can't help but feel this would be a lot more streamlined with a bidding and acceptance process.

Reported this already to support (ticket #1589), but without being responded so far, checking if it qualifies for a quarter.


Issue 1: MtGox Yubikey for 2FA not supported
As opposed to the support pages claiming:

Can I use my Mt. Gox Yubikey?
Yes. Be sure to select "Mt Gox Yubikey" in the Two factor authentication select box.

there is no such an option in the security setting page. All I see (Ubuntu 12.10, FF 16.0.1, Chromium 23.0.1271.97) is {None, SMS, Yubikey, Email, Google Authenticator}.

Issue 2: Locking out after failed 2FA setup
Attempting an invalid 2FA setup and not setting it back to 'None' will lock you out of the system.

To reproduce (starting without active 2FA):
1) go to Account Settings->Security
2) setup invalid 2FA (like pairing a MtGox Yubikey as Yubikey)
3) system reports error
4) log out
5) try to log in -> need to enter 2FA
6) request 2FA reset

I'd expect 2FA to remain disabled until a valid setup is given.

I don't know if this is a bug, or a "feature", but I have noticed that the iPhone app does not seem to obey the default fee settings that have been set on the account.
This results in randomly sending transactions that either a.) have a .0005 fee attached or b.) have NO fee attached.

For instance, I have my account default set to a "generous" level fee of .001 and all transactions I send when logged directly into the site get sent with that fee.

On my app however, any time I send a transaction the app will arbitrarily decide for me whether or not to include a fee. When it does include a fee, it is a paltry .0005.

This is extremely frustrating since the app does not allow you to explicitly include a fee when sending a transaction. I'm not saying that the ability to explicitly define a fee is needed within the app, but I feel that you should at least be able to rely on your default setting so that you have SOME control.

The transactions that get .0005 added is acceptable, but the times when no fee is included really bugs me since I am not given the power to decide.

Multisig addresses considered invalid by Android app.  Haven't tested on iPhone.  Issue posted on Github: https://github.com/blockchain/My-Wallet-Android/issues/2

[jabetizo]

Hi,

I have several fixes for the Slovenian translation, but I can't submit a pull request on github since the current Slovenian translation isn't in the master branch yet (still only a stub there: https://github.com/blockchain/Blockchain-Translations/blob/master/slovenian.json) even though it's already used in the live site.

Here's the newest version with fixes included:

Hi Piuk,

Raised one of these issues in the main blockchain.info thread but now posted on Github along with another. Thought I'd note them here just in case too:

Got "Payment received" email instead of "Payment sent":
https://github.com/blockchain/My-Wallet/issues/17

Endless error message loop leads to temporary site lock-out:
https://github.com/blockchain/My-Wallet/issues/18

Using Chrome on Mac in both instances.

Cheers,
Scribe

I can do french translation if it's still needed.

[malevolent]

Piuk, could you answer my last PM to you?

Thanks

[GoodGeorge]

Mr.Ben, please answer my messages...

[Neosoft]

I've sent you a PM regarding the German translation.

So please let me know if i can get started.

Hello Thread,

Now it happend: there were two people working on the german translations without knowing from each other.

Nerzahd: https://github.com/Nerzahd/Blockchain-Translations/blob/49153bd740f6cf7b41158092f3e96992e6b80417/german.json
and
DanielWeigl: https://github.com/DanielWeigl/Blockchain-Translations/blob/9d034b0e8e9dad7919ee21c01411ead860592e4c/german.json

Are there any german-natives here that can vote for one or the other translation to make it easier for Piuk to choose one or the other?

Native german here, both have several errors, but DanielWeigl wins by far imho.

Looks like a bug:

1. open browser and clear cash (or enter private browsing)
2. go to https://blockchain.info/wallet/login  and login to your wallet
3. buttons for refresh and logout are missing (top right corner)

Tried with:
PC: Firefox
Mac: Firefox and Safari
