http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=15003 Bug ID: 15003 Summary: Help should be a wiki, not translatable via po-files Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Staff Client Assignee: koha-bugs@lists.koha-community.org Reporter: pasi.kallinen@pttk.fi QA Contact: testopia@bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt@gmail.com [Note: This is brainstorming based on feedback from Vaarakirjastot] Po-files split the help pages into sentences, or worse, into sentence fragments. This makes translating them into fluent language nearly impossible, because they are text articles and direct sentence translation makes bad prose. Each help page should be a single translatable element. As the help pages are already sort-of like wiki, and editable in Koha itself, it would make sense to package the actual help pages for each language separately, which could then be installed (either in Koha itself, or by external means). And/Or perhaps there could be a syspref to use external URL instead of local help, with some substitutions for language, Koha version, and the help article. For example, setting the syspref value to "http://help.koha-community.org/wiki/${lang}/${version}/${article}" would open that page on a wiki set up there. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
