Hi,

I'm wondering why I have 100% translated but some of the words are still in English?

Attach the translation file, is impossible to know whats going on with just a picture.

I don't think there's an issue with my translation, anyway.. Here's the .po file:


And I also found this issue on some other languages:


However, it doesn't shown on smaller width:
 
Is not a matter of the script but the translation itself. I manage the Spanish translation and there's no issues in that sentence. French, German, Russian doesn't have those issues either because in those languages the system is translated properly.

When doing a translation you should use a .po editor, not a normal code editor unless you have an expert understanding of code editing. In this case, you have some issues in the msgid which should be:

Code: 
#: ../../../app/themes/Peafowl/views/index.php:17
#, php-format
msgid "Drag and drop anywhere you want and start uploading your images now. %s limit. Direct image links, BBCode and HTML thumbnails."
msgstr "Arrastra y suelta donde quieras para comenzar a subir ahora tus imágenes. %s de límite . Enlace directo de imagen, miniaturas en BBCode y HTML."

Note that there aren't new lines, quotes or anything. So in the future I recommend you to use a .po editor and if you want to do it directly using a code editor remember to keep every msgid intact.

I remember that I told you to use a gettext editor https://chevereto.com/community/threads/translated-100-but-still-english-intact.6657/#post-36360 and I did it because I know that working with raw po code can cause problems like this.

Well, I'm not editing the file manually though.
I'm a licensed translator, and I have Poedit pro.
Isn't this software capable to edit Chevereto .PO?
 
Unless you show me the actual translation file there is very little I can do for help you.
 
Just got your file, problem is like I said your bad editing:

This is what you have:
Code: 
msgid ""
"Drag and drop anywhere you want and start uploading your images now. %s "
"limit. Direct image links, BBCode and HTML thumbnails."

And this what you must have:
Code: 
msgid "Drag and drop anywhere you want and start uploading your images now. %s limit. Direct image links, BBCode and HTML thumbnails."

Note that the match must be exact, there is no room for any additional single character. The format also must be remain the same, not msgid "" <something> then <something>. Gettext must be edited without changing any code structure.

There is no PO editor which causes that inconsistencies in the file. Like I said, the strings must remain intact and here is an example of what you did:

Wrong (yours):
Code: 
#: ../../../app/themes/Peafowl/views/index.php:17
#, php-format
msgid ""
"Drag and drop anywhere you want and start uploading your images now. %s "
"limit. Direct image links, BBCode and HTML thumbnails."
msgstr ""
"Drag dan drop di mana pun anda inginkan dan mulai mengunggah gambar anda "
"sekarang. %s per gambar. Tautan gambar asli, BBCode dan HTML gambar kecil."


Correct (Spanish):
Code: 
#: ../../../app/themes/Peafowl/views/index.php:17
#, php-format
msgid "Drag and drop anywhere you want and start uploading your images now. %s limit. Direct image links, BBCode and HTML thumbnails."
msgstr "Arrastra y suelta donde quieras para comenzar a subir ahora tus imágenes. %s de límite . Enlace directo de imagen, miniaturas en BBCode y HTML."


I'm sorry but Tech support doesn't cover bad editing, there is no software in the world which will cover you from things like this. You have countless issues in the file, I'm sorry but you will need to re-do it all over.

Just try to keep the same format, order and sequence. This is not an ordinary file, the strings must match exactly. That's how gettext works and like I've told you several times before, use a .po editor. It is impossible that a .po editor software caused that code format.

I'm sorry to tell you mate, but that's de facto I used Poedit Pro, so I reckon Poedit pro is just NOT compatible with Chevereto.
 
I use Poedit basic to generate the English base for Chevereto. Maybe the problem is not the software but how you are using it. Any gettext code like the one you sent me earlier won't work in any system, ever.
 
Did you change some config or set something before editing?

Could you show me your Poedit config?

I believe there's some toggle or switch to load and then save as, and magic happens.

It just formatting issue though.
 
No I didn't touched anything. Most likely problem is that you feed it with a bad .po file, like the one you did where you translated msgid instead of msgstr.
 
Well, obviously I got the en.po from Chevereto 3.6.8 package, then downloaded it from server to local computer for Poedit processing.
 
I just checked en.po and it has the same format:

Code: 
#: ../../../app/themes/Peafowl/views/index.php:17
#, php-format
msgid ""
"Drag and drop anywhere you want and start uploading your images now. %s "
"limit. Direct image links, BBCode and HTML thumbnails."
msgstr ""
 
That's very odd. The file shouldn't look like that. Try with the one that is actually used in translate.chevereto.com

Actually is an issue in the xgettext parser, here all the know-how: https://github.com/vslavik/poedit/issues/95

The good thing is that http://translate.chevereto.com does fix this issue when you download the en.php translation, also all the other translations downloaded there should not have this issue. In the future I will include en.po taken from the translation center and not the one generated directly by PoEdit.
