All translations are not updated

[kevlarsefirot]

Hi,

Example: Chinese translation is complete "Electrum-2.6.4/lib/locale/zh_CN/LC_MESSAGES/electrum.mo" when I looked into it all is translated.
But when I run Bitcoin Electrum some things are not translated.
It seems that all translations are complete, but the old version (ID text is missing or incorrect and, therefore, cannot be translated)

You should post this as an issue on github. If you can help with the translation then that would be great. Electrum is made by volunteers.

I first wrote it on github then this forum 

This is a bug electrum no translation may not be complete because the texts are not updated ID.
I can not translate something that was not there

I consider this a big problem in electrum someone can answer with leadership development?

ignore this problem?

Electrum is officially released in English so i don't think ThomasV can help you there because these translations are being done by third parties who help out.

where did you download Chinese version from?
i could only find this on the internet https://crowdin.com/project/electrum and it shows Chinese as translated but not approved.

Herbert2020: You have completely understand me...


Ok I will give you an example:

The author makes the program electrum in English: Someone to translate electrum with "crowdin" the author must upload a file that can be translated.
example: file "abc.xx" version 2.0 "date 2014" (All text this translates into Chinese)


The problem is that the Bitcoin is Electrum version 2.6.4 "date 2016" But the "crowdin" is still version 2.0... (And this problem is for all languages)!

/home/mint/electrum/lib/locale/zh_CN/electrum.po
"electrum.po" It is as old version as "crowdin" ("contrib/make_locale" this does not solve my problem)


Bitcoin Electrum v2.6.4 For example, contains these texts:

"Appearance"
"Dynamic fees"
"Use multiple change addresses"
"View transaction before signing"

These texts are not contained in the file "electrum.po" and therefore cannot be translated!!!

Code:

electrumdev built the project
Jul 23, 2016 (5 hours ago)

I see that the project has been updated but texts translate are still on the old version...

I'm doing something wrong?

[Coding Enthusiast]

i may be wrong but i think the new build was only because they have added a Turkish language to the project. there is no change-log to confirm this (?)

you may want to Contact the project owner Randy Brito or maybe post your problem Here
