Translation entries number keep adding

[joelfcarvalho3427]

Hello.

I've experimenting a strange issue.
I'm translating the site to another language using the back-end. But I've noticed a few times already that the number of translation entries keep adding up.
For example, the total entries were bellow 600 a few hours ago, and now the total is 629. I've been looking around the entries and in fact I found a few new entries that weren't there before, mixed with the already translated entries.

This is a problem and should be fixed because can lead to the translator to miss part of the entries and the site will be poorly translated, with missing translations and will look very unprofessional. Specially when the target audience language and the main site language is exactly the translated language. Will look fishy and people will avoid the site.

Anyway, what is the total entries that should appear?

Thank you.

Hi joelfcarvalho3427,

my default entries are 875
hope this helps,
the support in this forum is very very slow, I hope the developers notice this and answer customers questions.

By the way do you have an entry with the following word (39suycy5m):
Language Key:39suycy5m
English Content:39suycy5m
Translated Content:39suycy5m

cause I noticed it today in my control panel and I never added it?

Regards,

Hi,

The amount of translations will depend on how many plugins you have installed. The translations are also not always populated by default, if they don't exist when a page is loaded they're added. So an initial install wont include them all.

We're working on creating a script which rebuilds them all based on the code, for each release. In the mean time if you load each page on the site at least once it'll ensure they've all been added to the database ready for converting.

Regards,
Adam.

Hello.

n3438, I'm also using v3.4. I hope you're using some plugins that I'm not using, because I'm using the base version with no plugins and you have much more entries than I. If you have no plugins installed too, than I have a problem... :S
About your question, I haven't noticed any entry by that name, no. Have no idea what it could be.

Adam, yes I realized that the entries were adding up after loading around several pages on the back-end. I don't agree with this behavior, it leads to translation flaws. Anyway, I have the site down for maintenance and I don't want to bring it up before everything is running sound. So unless you answer my other post about enabling site only for admins, or you hand me that script you spoke of, I don't know how can I generate the missing translation entries.

Regards.

I'll look at your other post now. Note if you have any urgent issues like this you can contact us using the contact page, we don't always monitor these forums but we're always on email.

Since you fixed a way to disable maintenance only for admin, I'll be running around the site and hope I get all the entries. It should do. Thank you.
I suggest you change this behaviour on next versions, though.

I agree. It's on the list to sort so we'll get something organised soon.
