Question about languages

[Eagle Creek]

When you have 2 languages installed, and use a phrase with no translations (so it's only in the 'phrase'-box), shouldn't it shop up in all languages?

A non translated phrase inherits from the MASTER-language. The one you shouldn't and can't (without debug mode) translate.

Admins should only import custom languages and not overwrite MASTER language.

- Ive added a custom phrase
- I didn't enter anything in the English or Dutch box, only used the Phrase text box (the first one)
- My text is only showing up when using English, but not Dutch.

To edit a phrase you need to place the new phrase in the available language text boxes.

Hi Steve, what do you mean with 'edit'? It's a newly made, custom phrase.
Maybe I made some mistake, I'll re-add it :).

[Steve Machol]

Same difference. You need to place the new phrase in the available language text boxes.

[Eagle Creek]

Why? I want to make one single text, for all languages. Then I have to enter it into 3 boxes, and edit it 3 times every time. Can't I just leave both boxes empty?

[Steve Machol]

Sorry I have no idea what you have done and what you are trying to do. Please explain. Also what is the exact problem? It's not clear to me.

[Eagle Creek]

I add a phrase.
I enter my text in the text box.
It only shows up when selecting English, but not Dutch.

I thought, when you keep the English and Dutch box empty (which are optional, it says), it just should work for all languages)

[Steve Machol]

Yes it should. Please post a screenshot.

I've removed the phrase, re-added it and now it works. I must have done something wrong, although I don't know why.

Sorry for bothering you. Thanks again for your support Steve.
